White House appears to be using NY Times to signal that Obama is throwing in the towel on "assault weapons" ban as being achievable and that executive orders will be confined to "limited measures."

Phone lines must have all burned up in DC!

Beware the media ploys designed to diffuse just rebellion.

All he’s got to do is subvert the Constitution some more.

No problem. :)

If Obama took ‘Executive Action’ on gun control, what might he do?

I wish there was an effective pro-gun promotion. I think the NRA has been ineffective in this area.

Look for a EO which restricts import weapons not suitable for “sporting purposes”, an added tax on ammo, language that orders stricter law enforcement procedures and enforcement, waiting periods, mag size limits, closing gun show “loophole” and, above all, Obama will stress his appointment of a “bipartisan study group” to recommend further actions to determine mental capability, the effects of media violence and recommendations. This will all be bragged about at a news conference of “doing what I can” but the “study group” will never materialize. Only gun controls will ever be enacted.

Yup, and the SCOTUS under Justice Roberts will strike down the blatantly unconstitutional obastardcare. Yup.

Read your Sun Tzu, people...

Barry is figuring out that enforcement might just be more than he can manage.

Even some of the democrap underground Obamabots are threatening to revolt.

Each year, Less than 100 people get murdered in mass shootings

compare that to the 2.5 million home invasions per year.

Compare that to the 300,000 women that get raped each year.

So “we” don't “Have to do something about it” as it doesn't exist (statically it doesn't).

The news media and other democrats use a statistically nonexistent fluke to take away our individual rights and freedom.

over 100,000 Americans die each year in just accidents.

This will all either land up in the courts and be tied up there or be a possible “flashpoint” to a future angry blowback.

DON’T listen to what Obama SAYS.

Watch what he DOES.

The man is a master of political tyranny and knows exactly how to tweak ALL the buttons and achieve his objectives.

This is the guy who rammed through the Obamacare bill in the face of overwhelming public opposition.

This is the CONGRESS which approved his fiscal bill in spite of public opposition to increased taxes and RE-ELECTED a damn useless traitor as leader - John and Boehner.

Don’t trust ANY of them!!! They are a nest of snakes. KEEP THE PRESSURE ON THIS BASTARD.

What is the best way to prevent rapists and other assailants from attacking and hurtling you? You take away their ability to do so in advance. The problem is that it’s often difficult to identify them in advance, so it often results in having to physically defend oneself and physically incapacitate the attacker during the attack.

So, here are the cold hard facts: the gun grabbers are nothing more than the assailants and rapists. When we are able to identify them in advance, we take away their ability to harm us, by not voting for them, or not approving their appointment to administrative positions in government where they can harm us. But when they get into those offices in spite of our best attempts, and they begin their attacks, it is up to us to fend off their attacks the best way we can. That’s when it must get physical. And then we must not merely counter attack against their weapons (the jack-booted thugs that come after us with more powerful assault weapons than they want us to have so we can’t defend ourselves), but we must get physical against the aggressors themselves. We must make up our minds and be strong enough to focus on them physically to disarm them and take away their ability to disarm us.

“That could conceivably...reduce gun deaths.”

Inconceivable!

"...the White House has calculated that a ban on military-style assault weapons will be exceedingly difficult to pass through Congress and is focusing on other measures it deems more politically achievable."

How about focusing on measures that are... um... CONSTITUTIONAL?

A Task Force led by Joe Biden.

Anything led by Joe Biden is led by Jod Biden is pretty much a waste of time.

Obama has already decided what he will do and Joe is just a cover for him. Somene to blame it on.

Poor Joe hasn’t figured that out yet, He still thinks he is impotent. LMAO Spelling done on purpose.

Obama, worst emperor ever. Any emperor worthy of ruling would have already written the decree to confiscate guns. But Obama is timid so he has Biden out there wasting his valuable time and talent on meetings with NRA, Walmart, etc to make it look like he is seriously considering his course of action.

NRA Calls Biden Meeting ‘Attack on Second Amendment’
Thursday, January 10, 2013 04:54 PM

By: Todd Beamon

The president of the National Rifle Association said on Thursday that there was no negotiation with the Obama administration on gun rights in an effort to stem violence in the wake of the shootings at a Connecticut elementary school last month.

“There isn’t on guns,” NRA President David Keene told CNN. “There is not on guns, not that I can see.”
