So according to Huff Blo, the Obama administration will be handle gun control by Executive Order.

 

Sam Stein, the author, says this is because of Republican control of the House.

It will be interesting to see what they come up with......

F'n libtards...

Lets hope these rules by fiat are largely meaningless.

 

I suspect they're going to go after magazine size first and foremost. Next they're going to go after a common sense ban on 50 caliber. I mean, people are held up with Barret 50 BMGs every day, the madness must stop! Next they're after elimination of FTF transfer of handguns. Not much different than here in NJ, but I suspect the rest of the country won't go for it. Finally, universal 1 gun a month.

 

It's going to blow up in his face. It will be entertaining to watch.

If it does blow up in his face, I just hope Mitt *I respect the 2A, just look what I did in Mass* Romney doesn't step in to fill the void......

How about the "One Box A Month" law. After all, who needs more than 50 bullets a month.

don't give them ideas...

I unhappily predict he will get re-elected and we will really be in for it in the 2A side of things.

Hm, I think its wishful thinking by the anti-freedom freakos. After today's unemployment numbers, the F&F scandal blowing up, and the likelyhood (AHEM, NRA??) of a legal challenge to any gun control via Exec order, the only way this might happen IMHO is as Obama is going out in flames and seeks to do as much damage on his way out............oh phooop, that's happening now isn't it.

Not having a strong alternative option is not helping us at all...

If they use India's model of 'common sense' gun laws then we are screwed. 3 weapons and only a couple hundred of rounds are allowed in your possession. Also, the government are the only ones allowed to make ammo, so the quality and variety you can choose from is extremely limited.

I don't really see how anything he does on "gun violence reduction" will affect his probable reelection. The people who will get pissed off likely weren't voting for him anyway, and the people who are all for it were likely going to vote for him anyway.

Think about it, who do the republicans have to go against him? He has the academic/liberal/media/ and a major portion of the minority vote behind him. If the economy starts to rev up a little and gas prices fall he is in! And we are out!

I really fear the lower court and supreme court appointments that will happen over the next 5 1/2 years, we may lose the 2A for the next 30 years!

I predict there willbe a run on ammo again right around election time.

and this is why myself and a few friends just ordered 30k primers lol

weren't they talking about reversing ogam? what happened?

Good thing I just bought 1440 rounds this month lol

and this is why myself and a few friends just ordered 30k primers lol

 

 

30K in primers? each?

All very possible and certainly alarming. The one small factor that might help us a little is the fact that potential to become the first frican american president during his first campaign generated enough interest to mobilize a portion of the public that is usually among the non-voters. I wouldn't expect all of that portion of his base to return to the voting boths in the absence of a similar 'milestone'.

Unfortunately you can never underestimate the stupidity of a voter.

Well, if this makes anyone feel any better, the world is going to sh*t right now and that ain't gonna help Obama. I work on wall street and I can tell you that there is some real fear in the air among big institutional investors who are in the know. Specifically, the European sovereign debt crisis isn't going away any time soon and is very likely to get worse. Italy, the third biggest economy in Europe, is in real trouble. CDS protection (those evil "derivatives" we read about in the news) on European countries (basically insurance in the event of a default) is getting much more expensive, indicating that people believe default (or defaults) is likely. The jobs situation in the US -- obviously not so good. Throw a possible default on US debt if the default ceiling isn't raised(which I think is unlikely but not impossible), and we may be in for some unpleasant times.

 

Yes, this is causing and will cause some pain in the near term. But, I really believe that unless things get better right quick, voters, and in particular independent voters, are going to have much less appetite for Obama's incompetence and "hope and change".
