Twilight zone part II

Open letter to President Obama and our elected officials:

As I now understand that you want to arm the Syrian rebels, I am positive that you will have them undergo extensive background checks and ensure that the mentally ill do not receive any weapons.  Furthermore, you will limit their ability to buy hollow piercing ammo and limit the amount of ammo they can buy or get free each month.  In addition, you will make sure that those weapons cannot be transported across state lines in accordance with international law.  Oh and by the way, why not let them just shoot a shotgun from the rear of their tent, because your Vice President is so confident that this will scare away any armed intruders.
