Barack Obama in 2008 made this promise to his supporters.
“I believe in the Second Amendment. I will not take your shotgun away. I will not take your rifle away. I won’t take your handgun away… But I am not going to take your guns away. So if you want to find an excuse not to vote for me, don’t use that one because it just ain’t true. It ain’t true.”

His campaign also ran this ad:
“Barack Obama WON’T Take Away Your Gun…”
But that was in 2008.
Today the Obama administration announced a ban on AR-15 bullets by executive action.
The move is being called his “back-door gun ban.”
