Obama is blowing smoke. The “Executive Orders” he’s talking about are ‘research’, ‘better’ enforcement of existing laws, and similar nothingburgers.

Obama and the Dems know they can’t get a real gun-control bill through congress. These Executive Orders are meaningless face-saving measures, and the sudden interest in amnesty is the next attention shifter so they can keep moving. Obama has been told he’s already lost this battle.

It would be great if he got impeached though, I’ll get my popcorn.

Exactly. Republicans control the House and there are too many Rat Senators from red states to count on.

Time to change the subject to the debt ceiling and immigration.

I think you have it, for the most part. The EOs won't be anything by themselves that would push things over the edge. It'll just make it harder and more expensive to be a legal gun owner.

Infringement, yes, but not so drastic that the vast majority would want to call for impeachment, much less see blood spilled.

I think we are being Alinskied. The rhetoric has gotten so heated that the actual EOs will seem “reasonable”.

Remember, Bush the First EO’d a ban on firearms imports after Stockton. No impeachment followed, no washing the Tree of Liberty with the type O of tyrants.

I've been wrong plenty of times before (thought Zero was toast for re-election) but I'll be flabbergasted if there's anything close to confiscation coming this week in an EO. The anti-gun crowd will just continue to chip away, they won't go for all the marbles at once.
