Already some crazy conspiracy theories out there that this is some plan of Obama’s to let him take away our guns. You know if he can pull this off in the first 100 days of being in office, he really must have his stuff together. With conservative whackos claiming conspiracy, it’s no wonder some republicans are switching over.
Any shooter knows you don’t “clutch” a gun. You need a lighter touch. As does a bible.

This epizootic saw 2,000 cases of the disease in farms in most of the British countryside. Over 10 million sheep and cattle were killed in an eventually successful attempt to halt the disease.
