To: pierrem15; All

Let me preface my post :

I want NO MORE laws infringing on our rights; use what we have -on the books already- to protect, and REPEAL the ones that infringe.

Reference to pierrem15’s post:

“1) The ATF will announce that gun-show organizers are considered to be firearms dealers and all firearms sold at gun shows must have a background check performed.

2) The ATF will announce that all sales of firearms are considered transactions covered by the Gun Control Act.”

My questions to all,

1) under what authority (ESTABLISHED LAW) could this be done?

2) What CURRENT things can a private seller use to ensure they aren’t selling to a nutcase or felon that come under the CURRENT categories of prohibited possessors.

Sorry for not responding sooner.

To answer your question, there is no legal authority for Obama to classify gun show organizers as gun dealers, but when has Obama worried about what's actually legal?

Any such attempt would have a sufficient plausibility to the low-information public (who, like journalists and politicians don't know the difference between an automatic, semi-automatic and select-fire weapon) so as to be cheered on by the official palace butt kissers known as the white house press corps.

What we're witnessing is full blown demagoguery of the worst type, trampling the law and the Constitution with the assistance of a sycophantic press.

More or less what he did with the 300K+ illegals who are now getting work permits and drivers licenses because they were brought here as children. There's no legal authority for that, either.
