Obama to issue executive order regarding guns?

Vice President Joe Biden is meeting with victims of gun violence today. Speaking with reporters beforehand, Biden said President Obama may use an executive order to push through more gun control and Second Amendment restrictions. More from the Weekly Standard.

"The president is going to act," said Biden, giving some comments to the press before a meeting with victims of gun violence. "There are executives orders, there's executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet. But we're compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action that we believe is required."

Biden said that this is a moral issue and that "it's critically important that we act."

Biden talked also about taking responsible action. "As the president said, if you're actions result in only saving one life, they're worth taking. But I'm convinced we can affect the well-being of millions of americans and take thousands of people out of harm's way if we act responsibly."

We knew this was coming. The White House has been saying for a month that they are acting "quickly" on new gun control measures. Senator Dianne Feinstein's sweeping new gun control legislation hasn't even been introduced yet and Obama isn't the kind of president who has shown a willingness to wait on Congress.

If Obama pushes through new regulations using executive powers, the process will unfold in different parts. After an order is signed, the Department of Justice led by Attorney General Eric Holder, will be in charge of enforcement through the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms. Now, how far the order will go is the big question. You can bet it will ban semi-automatic rifles and large ammunition magazines, but how Obama grandfathers in old, lawfully purchases semi-automatic rifles remains unknown. Will he require citizens who already own these weapons to be fingerprinted as Feinstein's bill requires? Or will he go so far as confiscation as New York Governor Andrew Cuomo has suggested? Time will tell.

Can the SCOTUS overturn an executive order? (at work and don't hav ethe time to look it up)

They have a notice that says they are not taking any calls or Emails due to the huge surge in orders.

I think I found 4 more steal USGI 30 round mags for $25.00 a piece, through a private sale. That will give me 8 dangerous 30 round mags plus 2 not as dangerous 20 rounders. Thats plenty for me.

Cool.


I am getting tired of all the unknowns up in the air. I feel fine until I talk to my dad, and he gets me pissed off again.


The assholes need to make their decision so that we can all get pissed off or let out a sigh of relief. It better be a sigh of relief or they will see a major shitstorm because of this.

I didnt read this. But I agree lil to nothing is going to happen in states like Nebraska ect. Its all fear mongering IMO. They do anything stupid & they all know it will be the last stupid thing they ever do as a politician.
Now back to ranting on Jesse Jackson face book page. I think I have 2000 pluss death threats going.

Be sure to note who is doing the fear mongering, again.

**** this petition bullshit or states wanting to pass laws saying they don't intend to force federal gun regulations. You want to scare the executive branch? Start the process for a constitutional amendment allowing for the public recall vote of a sitting president and/or vice president. All you need is 2/3rds of the state legislatures to vote for it to start the process.

Yes, we know. ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC.

Quite effectively, I might add. There are a lot of stupid people out there.

But I don't have to tell you that.

I hope you are right. I have been very calm, but lately I have been with my dad reloading and he is getting me fired up again.
