LIBtards are mentally ill.
All of this is about legitimizing the Executive Order(s) to forestall lower court decisions that will throw them up to the Supreme Court.
This “just throwing parameters around existing law” is bullshit. They are going to say they are clarifying the 1934 NFA or the weapons acts of 1964 or whatever, but the truth of the matter is that he is INSTRUCTING the ATF to modify its rules and interpretations which are not establish Law in the sense Congress approved it. It’s blatant BS.
The reason for this is the Executive Order. It is valid for “clarification of existing federal LAW” or it is a directive order to those agencies under his control. In this case, Obama is ordering the ATF and FBI (maintains the NICS) to change their INTERPRETATIONS, even in direct conflict with law.
It’s a directive that ultimately will have no teeth. I certainly am not going to consider it should I sell a weapon.
