US guns sales soar after Barack Obama’s re-election – Telegraph

US guns sales soar after Barack Obama’s re-election – Telegraph.

Sales of hand guns have risen in the wake of President Obama’s re-election.

Americans are worried that the President will use his second term to tighten gun laws.

A similar rise in gun sales was seen after President Obama was elected in 2008, and after President Clinton was elected. Mel Bernstein of Dragonman Arms, Colorado Springs said, “We’re going from normally six to eight guns a day, to 25. I stocked up, I got a stockpile of these AK-47s, we’re selling these like hot cakes. Luckily I had an idea of what was going on because it happened with Clinton.”

President Obama

 

President Obama had little time to celebrate his re-election, as stock markets across the globe tumbled in fear of the fiscal cliff fast approaching.

More than $600bn (£380bn) of tax rises and cuts in government spending are due in early January.

If law-makers in Washington fail to reach a deal to avoid this “taxmaggedon” it will seriously damage the fragile economic recovery, and have repercussions across the globe.

Leno: ‘We Wasted Four Years Waiting For Obama To Do Something About The Economy’

Jay Leno took some surprising jabs at Obama and his handling of the economy and jobs on Thursday.  “I love how the politicians capitalize on this kind of thing, like the minute the replacement refs were fired, President Obama said, See, sometimes losing jobs can be a good thing. Its a good thing…. A new survey out today shows how much time we waste every day in our lives. For example, we waste seven minutes in line every time we go to get coffee, 28 minutes getting through airport security, four years waiting for Obama to do something about the economy. Every year, we waste a lot. We wasted a lot of time.”

San Francisco Killing(s) Averted; Man Arrested In Haight-Ashbury

Somehow, police in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park averted what could have been a major high profile killing spree.

Robert Johns was only smoking a cigarette when he was arrested in the Golden Gate Park.  The police caught something about him which caused them to dig deeper and what they found was disturbing.

Police believe they diverted a major attack.

Johns had a number of guns, knives, 5800 rounds of ammunition and a list of a number of political leaders which possibly included President Obama in his car.
