Here’s an idea... Mr. President, you don’t have the legit power to do so. Neither does Congress. So, no. No gun bans for you. We’ll say it louder if we have to.

I sure wish that last sentence would indeed come true, but I have my doucts. Just posting on the internet is NOT going to stop this White Hut Dictator and the likes of Boner/Reid in the Congress.

I skimmed through it. Didn’t see anything about a gun ban. In fact, he basically said nothing. I don’t trust him, of course. But that doesn’t mean he’s done anything more with this speech than start a blog spot.

“I’m willing to bet...” that Obama doesn’t give a crap about what rural folk think.

Whether by Law, executive order or UN treaty, they are going to disarm us. :)

They'll try.

The book Unintended Consequences is an excellent work, but Hussein O will not be receptive....Hates America and sound judgement.

I’m not “empowering” anyone.

I’m pointing out: when has the Constitution stopped anyone in this administration or crop of liberal Democrats?

I guess you can sue if you want too - but it’ll get in front of some liberal judge who’ll slap you down.

After the Obamacare ruling - nothing would surprise me.

I fear our government is completely out of control. The left thinks they have a mandate to do anything they want - and they are going to use it.

The perp tried to buy a firearm and was turned away. So he stole them from his mother.

So does that imply his demand for a "civilian force" funded at the same levels as the US Army is now "inoperative"....?

inquiring minds seek to know.......

Please get that straight and stop empowering anyone with the right or the idea that they can disarm us. The Second Amendment cannot be infringed upon because it is part of the Supreme Law of the Land.

OK, but what if they ask us to register our guns? I am a collector of guns some of the"scary" kind. I bought them legally, with a background check and I have a CWP, Concealed Weapons Permit issued by my counties sheriff's office. My husband says he is not going to jail alone to rot there while everyone else "registers" their guns. Don't they have to find out where they all are before they can order us to turn them in, cause when we don't they know where to go to get them. Registration is the key for them.

“....Same thing for NSAID prescriptions,etc.......”

NSAIDs are used for asthma, among other ailments.

Does that mean anyone with an inhaler can’t own a gun??

They are also used for helping people to go to sleep.

Inability to sleep could be construed as resulting from stress, fatigue, personal problems, etc. Do you not think that the gun takers would take prescription use history to extremes?

One of the very first Executive Orders from the Despot issuing out in the wake of this tragic opportunity for gun grabbers is the EO that will require all Federal Agencies to report NICS related information to the Federal NICS data base.

We now have a convenient vehicle in ObamaCare that will digitize every carbunkle, hammertoe, Valium, Valtrex, et al prescription and ship it right on off to NICS.....the EO will require NICS to flag whatever the hell they feel like flagging it with.

As Rush says “Don’t doubt me on this.” It will happen, is even happening NOW.

“what did Obama’s (first) physician say about Obama? what then happened to that White House physician? where does Obama’s current physician come from?

hint: he plays golf and writes boring medical reports”

What DID 0bamas first doctor say about him and what happened to him?

Private reply to me is OK.

Yes, this is how they want you to believe things go. Have you purchased a weapon very recently? If so, then you will have noticed that a new box has been added to the 4473 (box 12 I think) right before the box that asks you to state (check mark) race. An answer on that box can be marked “other”.

The very curious thing in this new box are TWO options. HISPANIC, or NOT HISPANIC....You tell me why they need this. This whole NICS crap is political and if you don’t think they’re gonna pull in every bit of information they can from now on, you should call me - I have a bridge I want to sell you.

” The perp tried to buy a firearm and was turned away.”

Wonder what the reason was for the turn-down?

Too young? (He was 20)

Maybe my mom was/is Hispanic but I have my dads last name and I take after him in looks.

We can play this game also.

Who will they bother more, the person who checks the “Hispanic” box or the one who checks “non-hispanic”.

So if we take away the firearms from the law-abiding citizens, that will keep these criminals AND GOVERNMENT that the left turns loose upon the citizenry will simply stop their violent crimes?

There. Fixed it.

Dear thirst4truth.

I'm sorry I have to say this, but no one can advise you what to do anymnore. You are entirely resposible for whatever action you take. Consider that anything that you choose to do is already, or soon to be illegal, even though it's Constitutional.

The issue will be settled for me at my front door, if and when that hour comes.

I honestly don't know what I'll do until that moment, but my daddy didn't raise a coward or a slave.
