        Hey @BarackObama , you can be for tougher gun laws without lying. The issue should be debated with truths not flat out lies. But maybe you thought you could lie since you were out of the country and your audience wouldn’t know any better.

        This isn’t true a background check was run on me right on the spot when I went to buy my gun. if I didn’t pass the background check they would not have sold the gun to me.

        To a country with restrictive gun laws and twice the per capita gun violence. I did an exercise there, everyone had a “someone pulled a gun on me story”. It was crazy.

        These are lies. Sure, you can buy machine guns ILLEGALLY. But that's like saying, "Anyone can murder people in our country. It happens every single day."

        You can buy older full-auto weapons (mfgd before 1986) legally, if you can find one for sale, pass an invasive 6-9 month atf/fbi background check, and have at least $20,200 to blow on it.
