Senator Barak Obama

Obama wants permanent renewal of the Feinstein "Assault" Weapons ban.
Obama said the end of the ban--which means the gun industry will resume making and selling 19 types of military-style semiautomatic weapons--means America's streets will be more dangerous. Such weapons have accounted for a "disproportionate share of police fatalities," he said. "I believe we need to renew--not roll back--this common sense gun law," Obama said.

Obama opposes concealed carry laws.
On the issue of prohibiting citizens from carrying concealed weapons, Obama said he believes national legislation should be passed to "prevent other states' laws [allowing citizens to conceal their guns] from threatening the safety of Illinois residents."

Obama supports semi-auto ban, other gun controls (NPAT, July 1998)
"I believe in keeping guns out of our inner cities, and that our leaders must say so in the face of the gun manufacturer's lobby."
