    | For a guy who says his biggest regret is not passing more gun control laws, President Barack Obama sure is pardoning a lot of criminals who’ve violated the gun laws already on the books. As the president took in the sun, sand and amazing golf available to him on his Hawaiian holiday vacation, he also took a moment to pardon or reduce the sentences of more than 200 federal inmates, many of them in federal prison for violating federal weapons laws.
 
 Ed.: For values of 'criminals' that solely include people convicted of victimless crimes.

    | Putting more gun toting criminals on the streets will increase gun crimes and feed into the liberals quest to restrict the rights of law abiding criminals.  Besides that, pardons will restore their gun rights so they can vote for Obama's cronies. |

                      | The right of a citizen to bear arms, in lawful defense of himself or the State, is absolute. He does not derive it from the State government. It is one of the high powers" delegated directly to the citizen, and `is excepted out of the general powers of government.' A law cannot be passed to infringe upon or impair it, because it is above the law, and independent of the lawmaking power." [Cockrum v. State, 24 Tex. 394, at 401-402 (1859)] |  |  |
