Bullies: Obama Administration Summons NRA to White House
Breitbart Big Government ^ | 1/8/13 | Ben Sharpiro

Posted on 01/08/2013 3:35:23 PM PST by Nachum

Vice President Joe Biden, who is heading up the President’s task force on gun control proposals, announced Tuesday that he would be meeting this week with the National Rifle Association, among other groups. And his timing is just a bit suspect; the day before meeting with the NRA, Biden will be meeting with gun control organizations and shooting victims. Presumably, his welcome for the NRA will be somewhat less hearty. The NRA, under heavy public pressure thanks to the White House’s bully tactics after the Sandy Hook massacre, said it would visit the White House

Nothing that anyone has proposed would have stopped the SH shooter and therefore is just political posturing. The thing that would have stopped/slowed this idiot is if the full capacity mags had been locked away. To me it sounds like a pretty benign proposal. Everyone gets to keep their mags but the owners must lock them up when not in use. If you use an AR for home defense you can keep a few 10 rounders handy. If you hear someone breaking in and you have time, get out the 30 rounders. Obama suspends the constitution, civil unrest, mob violence, zombies, going to the range, training, etc. get out the full capacity mags. How does that sound?

Yet Congress can’t get the 0bama administration (Clinton) to comply with a legitimate summons on Benghazi.

I don’t think there have been enough republicans who have flipped yet, so no legislation will pass. Looks like we’ll be getting another exec order

Enjoy the visit...just don't take the corporate jet. That didn't work out very well for the car execs.

Remember, appearance over substance is what matters to the one stream media and its customers. Fly coach or drive an older car to the meeting.

Is this “summons” legally binding? Otherwise, the NRA should not comply.

Not really. The shooter was changing mags when they were still half-full, so he could've done just as much damage with a bunch of full 10-round mags.

The NRA, under heavy public pressure...

They are? I sure haven't seen it, outside of the usual handful of loudmouth Democrat scumbags..
And I wouldn't call that the "public" by any stretch.

Some will, for sure. But that's okay - I've always wanted to go hunting overseas.

There have been reports that the SH shooter didn't expend his mags before swapping them out, that there were still rounds left in them. Possibly a lot of rounds. Apparently due to his fixation (and possibly muscle memory) with first-person shooter games that allow the shooter to replenish their virtual ammo at any point without penalty.

If someone can please repost the link to those, I'd appreciate it.

If accurate, it should serve to demonstrate that high-capacity mags weren't really an issue here. What it WOULD mean is that detachable mags were - since it only takes a second or two to swap out mags.

At least that's how the Left will portray it. I know a lot of gun-ignorant Libs who have managed to get well educated, VERY quickly, on the differences between high-cap mags, low-cap mags, detachable mags, etc. I have no doubt that's where they're going in a incremental manner. First ban "mean-looking" guns and "high-capacity" mags. Then go after semi-autos and low-capacity mags. Then go after detachable mags altogether.

I could handle this easily. Just say “no Joe”

Incorrect.

I am booked solid can't possibly make it, but you are welcome to come to my place at 10:30 on Thursday.

Never go to their place...always make them come to you.

Hand the commies a copy of the Second Amendment, turn around, and leave.

I would *not* respond to their "summons". All that Obama is trying to do is make this look like a compromise, where a pro-gun heavyweight is agreeing to the deal. They need a photo to run with that story. Don't give it to them.

Yep, let alone acting on a contempt citation against Eric Holder.

When “summoned” by the dictator, always bring your musket.
