Sheriff Clarke Obama well on way to gun confiscation

The Federalist Papers Project and Breitbart and others have an interview with Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke.
He says that Obama and the International Chiefs of Police Association are well on their way to gun confiscation.

First off, the sites you mentioned are known for far-right news and opinion, often leaning into conspiracy theories, hyperbole, scare tactics, and misinformation.

Second, you provide no resources to back up your claim, which is 1) the foundation for a poor argument (equivalent to gossip) and 2) very inconsiderate for your readers, who want to join in conversation.

I believe the stories you are referring to are here and here.

These articles offer nothing but a single county Sheriff's opinion, which, while the opinion is shared by many, including members of this forum, does not include any official policy statements by the ICPA, just Sherrif Clarke. Yes, they endorsed a universal background check proposal, but that is nothing new for the ICPA. Ther Sheriff in question, Sheriff Clarke, also appears to be very good at making some rather inflamatory statements on his own, which does not lend him credibility in my opinion.

Not really much to see here.
