Biden: Obama Considering 'Executive Order' to Deal With Guns

"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."

Biden, as he himself noted, helped write the Brady bill.

Eric Holder was scheduled to be at the meeting that's currently taking place at the White House.

Does anyone have any idea what this reported Executive Order is going to say? I mean, actual information and not panicked, paranoid speculation?

An executive order that conflicts with the Constitution of the United States? Even Clinton would never have gone that far. I hope the response to Obama is exactly what he deserves - nonviolent but unwavering and perpetual opposition to totalitarian evil.

Nope. Only what Biden said in that interview. That they’d bypass Congress to implement gun control.

Clinton did. Look up Executive Order 12954. It was overturned.

Zero will do what he wants. After all, who's gonna stop him?

The silence from Red State governors tells me something. Now would be a good time to pray.

Well seems like the leaders in many of the states are in the process of implementing gun control right now.
And with their help Obama has already bypassed congress.

He's running quite a dog and pony show
with a little help from his friends...

If an astrologer said it, you can be sure they were told it by Satan or one of his minions.

So the question is, why did Satan want that said on a national radio show?

It is a form of astrology but based on science.

I thought the Maxist Democrats are always telling us that we "can't legislate morality."

Can't ever accuse them of consistency, can we?

Will the military stand with Zero in the event of a Civil War? Hopefully not.

There will be three groups of people ... the first group within the military will say "no way" and they will quit rather than be a part of this.

Then there are those who will decide that keeping their job is more important for their family security and they will reluctantly comply.

Whats left? ... THOSE are the ones we should genuinely fear ... they will be the seeds for the next gestapo.

What? Are on drugs? What did I write that has JACK to do with the JEWS and under what reasoning does my vote, and how would you know how I voted, have to with the constitution? You may not agree or like what my comment was but at least stay on track. I think way too many people are too eager to insert the Holocaust into a argument.

I can’t stand Obama, but that kind of talk is assinine and exactly what the left wants.

Why not invite Lon Tomohisa Horiuchi?

He would fit right in. Lon gleefully murdered Vicki Weaver in cold blood. He is a sadistic psychopath. Remember on Lon boy was at Waco too.

I hope true Justice prevails and this evil cretin is brought up on murder charges.
