Vice President Joe Biden “guaranteed” that President Barack Obama will pass sweeping gun control legislation by the end of January, according to Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino.
“He said, ‘Tommy, I guarantee you, we’ll get it done by the end of January,’” Menino reportedly said at City Hall on Thursday. “They’re going to get it done.”
Menino, a leading gun control advocate, has been recovering from a myriad of health issues over the last two months, but said Biden has called him a number of times while he was in the hospital. One of the calls came after the Newtown, Conn. school shooting and concerned gun control, the Boston Herald reports.
“I understand the Second Amendment, the right to bear arms. But I don’t understand how young kids should be able to get guns,” Menino said, adding that Obama has “no excuse not to pass strong legislation.”

umgud guarantees there will be more guns sold by the end of January than any other time in history!
Because everything Biden says is 100% above board! LOL.... However I am sure Obama/DNC are right now planning every dirty trick possible to get New Gun Controls into law. The media is already on board.
The only thing Obama is going to pass by the end of January is GAS!
Pass all the laws you want.
Then try to enforce them.
Morons who know nothing about guns should not attempt to “legislate” guns.
I love to read these gun-grabbers claiming they “understand and support” the 2nd Amendment. They always say that right before they say they want to outlaw guns.
Is the plan to pass it by a vote in the executive cabinet? or, is it a vote of whomever is in Ø’s office at the time of passage?
Unless the GOP is bound and intent on turning into the Whig Party by passing such a thing, I call B.S.
You’re incorrectly assuming that the Constitution still applies. It doesn’t. Dear Leader, the media, and the cowardly Republicans in Congress have made it abundantly clear that the Constitution is meaningless now. Obama can do what he wants.
Okay, you pass your treasonous gun laws and people will enforce this law:
Therefore the United States Code at 18 U.S.C. § 2381 states “whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.”
Indeed, that’s what I thought when reading the title.
The Congress “passes” legislation, the president signs it.
If the Constitution no longer applies, we can do whatever we want too. FUBO!
Notice he follows up with the non-sequitur of “kids being able to get guns”.
Laws are already in place to prevent “kids” from “getting guns”.
Eh...How does Obama pass anything ? He has ONE VOTE
Congress also legislates, not Obama, Obama Signs legislation passed by the People’s representatives.
I agree, I call this BS.
Executive Orders are my guess.
He seems to not understand how laws are supposed to be passed.
In particular, the power to tax comes from Congress, not the Executive branch.
Whay hasn't anyone brought up how blatantly unconstitional his act was? He's not dictator. Yet.
They are after our guns because they are afraid of us as a pillar against their tyrany. All this frantic emotional bs is just that, bs.
They villified the Tea Party for the same reason. They are afraid of us.
Knowing that means that we should do something about it!!!!!
read the tag line.
T’will be interesting to see if the Dems the NRA bought (e.g., Harry Reid) stay bought.
Mumbles is an idiot. That aside, I have 4 grandsons and there is no way they could get their hands on a gun unless they found the combination to my husband’s safe. Come on, the only kids that can get guns are kids with bad intent. Nothing is going to stop them.
