Gun Laws, what is coming at a national level?
- Thread starter captain
- Start date
They don't make Ar15 or Ak47 in .38 special or 30/30. Neither would they ever. So to limit the four calibers I mention would effectively control these weapons.
Awww Geesh! He's got kids on the stage. We're done

I cant watch it, I might actually try to reach through the TV to get him...and I cant afford a new TV at the moment
Besides not like it wont be available on any/every outlet for the next 100yrs
I feel like i'm watching history - the day we trashed the 2nd Amendment.
- Used children too young to have any informed opinion as tools...identical kids with identical letters could be used at NRA press conference to allow guns in schools..
- Executive Orders (23), no specifics on what they are.
- Proposing (thru Congressional legislation)
- Universal background check for all firearms sales including private. Didn't mention ammo. Suspect that data becomes government (and therefore public) information.
- AWB Ban (no specifics)
- 10-round mag limit.
- Wants them to confirm new ATF director (don't know him but suspect gun grabber)
- Continually invoking "It's all about our kids"...
- Brought parents of one of the murdered Newtown kids, put camera on to watch them publicly grieve (as a parent I grieve with them)
The shot has now been fired across the bow.

All I can say is bs. The criminals dont care what laws are passed. The criminals will be better equipped than the responsible gun owners.
Someone needs to stop this madness. How can he bypass the congressional process with executive orders so often just because the congress disagrees with his bs? I surely hope someone takes this up as a constitutional issue and finds him in violation. 
There's a new sign on the door to the white house. It reads "please ignore the noise while we slowly bend the ends of these crosses to the right. Also please mind the wet paint as we update the color scheme to black and red"

Obama has consequences. Here's a short term possibility in the future:
3D-printed 30-round AR magazine brings us ever closer to a fully 3D-printed gun | ExtremeTech
The 2nd amendment has nothing to do with hunting. Anyone who mentions hunting doesn't even know what he's talking about. I hope the supreme court gets involved with this.
lease: But, seeing how obamacare got through, it's not looking good.
On a more positive thought,
I wonder where new pilgrims can go since Obama and his 'kind' rule here?

Depending on what exactly those really contain, 13 & maybe 16 sound like possible bad things. I suspect though that the actual language of those actually will vary from the titles, kinda like obama care and the stuff contained within it that really has no bearing to health care
He did ask for a ban on assault style weapons as well. He just can't do that through executive order. Has to go through both the senate and the house.
One thing I can say is that I'm glad I didn't buy an overpriced AR..

Yep! After all the freaking out, what do we get? A bunch of well-worded nothing.
Oh I suspect there's some meat to it we just aren't being told what exactly it is. They sky isn't falling but thats not to say we should blindly accept it wont and this is the first real call that chicken little would be making. Dont forget the story, we should be mindful to at least stay aware of why folks say the sky is falling and measure its worth when presented with the facts.
History is repeating itself. Nobody thought the first ban would happen either.
Tough road ahead.
Tough road ahead.
For the people that say they will not give up there weapons, what are you going to do with it when it's illegal, you will not be able to shoot it, show people, it will just collect dust and always have to worry about it, what if someone breaks in when your gone and steals it, you can't report it stolen? It's illegal.
Just wanted to share the FBI's crime stats for the year 2005 and the year 2011 (In that order)
