President Elect Obama Named Gun Salesman of the Year
No joke.
Outdoor Wire, a news service for outdoor sports has named Barack Obama “Gun Salesman of the Year.”
From Ammoland.com:
“In recognition of the unprecedented demand for firearms by nervous consumers, The Outdoor Wire, the nation’s largest daily electronic news service for the outdoor industry, has named President-elect Barack Obama its “Gun Salesman of the Year”
Apparently the drive in gun sales has to do with fears that Obama will be an anti-gun president.
“Choosing President-elect Obama as the Gun Salesman of the Year, says Shepherd, is a lot like a good-news, bad-news joke. “His election has driven gun sales into the stratosphere,” Shepherd says, “but his opposition to guns and gun ownership may be the biggest threat the industry has ever faced.”
This is an impressive accomplishment for the president elect. He’s driven gun sales through the roof. Now if he can do the same thing for cars and houses we’ll be all set.
It’s shocking that Obama would receive such an honor regarding guns when you consider how bitter those gun clinging religious xenophobes usually are.
