Well a Second Amendment showdown is brewing at the White House later this morning President Obama.

Will come forward and unveil his plan for the most sweeping gun control measures that our nation is seen in decades we understand.

He's already getting strong push back as you would imagine from groups like the National Rifle Association.

Which last night launched a bit of a preemptive strike.

They criticized.

The president for accepting armed protection.

For his daughters -- school.

When he questioned putting officers in other US schools again a lot of attention for this take a look yourself.

Part.

The president's kids more important.

Then -- is he's skeptical about putting an armed security helps us when these kids are protected by armed guards at their school.

Mr.

Obama demands the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes.

-- he's just another -- this hypocrite when it comes to a fair share of security.

Mean -- that's getting a lot of blowback today.

And we -- to get the impressions of from Larry Pratt is the executive director of Gun Owners of America Larry -- -- good to have you here this morning.

Thank you to do with the is that at a okay.

I think the ad is spot on it points to the hypocrisy that we see so much from our ruling class.

And it underscores I think the need that we've been pointing to that if we're going to get serious about protecting her children.

We're going to do away with the gun free zone requirement in federal law.

Which has simply created the magnets.

For these mass murders that have occurred over the last twenty years all of which have been.

In gun free zones it seems pretty obvious what we need to be doing make it so the teachers.

Anybody on staff at a school -- that's qualified for a concealed carry permit.

Can be carrying a concealed firearm.

So that there's an element of uncertainty that would face some monster to go into a school he wouldn't know.

Who might be the one who could confront him.

Actually a whole lot better than an armed guard with a badge on.

It can't understand -- all sort of been their reaction to this that in a time -- the president's kids is is sort of something that Americans you know.

Respect the office of the presidency and we and we have a lying tradition of it's sort of not going there are not talking about the president's children is certainly we all want to make sure that the president's children.

Are protected it bite by a Secret Service say it's their right and and it's what we would expect.

It's what we would expect but we also would expect the same for us this is a democracy this is a country.

Where we are all equal before the law and to have special privileges for others that.

-- wouldn't necessarily extend to us common people goes down a little hard.

And that's why we're delighted that representative Steve Stockman.

Has said that he's willing to defund it the White House if it moves against the rest of us if it.

Even becomes necessary consider as one of the tools in his toolbox impeachment.

This is a serious confrontation the president seems to be convinced that the American people don't need.

To be able to protect themselves it's okay if he has Secret Service but forget the rest of us.

-- Larry Pratt thank you for your opinion this morning good to have you with us lots more discussion about this in the coming hours thank you -- Things whether it's only be.
