I have come to believe that Democrats can't be real men. They are afraid of guns. As up thread I was reminded that there were military personnel who shot up their work places, the point there is the girly democrats have disarmed the military on base. It makes no sense to me. Carter did it in Lebanon.

“I just wish I knew how to proceed.”

Obey no laws that attack or limit your freedom.

Seems kind of passive. But OK.

wants to disarm those who took an oath to defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic

To him we are the enemy, as is the Constitution we hold dear.

The Democrats are certainly making great strides in alienating all of the military community, and the patriotic American citizens as well.

Insightful and foresightful they are not.

Fortunately.

He needs to be flushed from the Oval Office like the turd he is. This man is a tyrant and a dictator and there are limits to executive orders. I think he has reached that point here.

"The White House inched forward Friday with two new executive actions aimed at boosting the federal background-check system. The new laws..."

Excuse me, but since when are executive orders "laws"?

This is dangerous stuff, folks. Obama is literally waving his royal scepter and proclaiming new laws by the seat of his pants. He's abolishing the Constitution in front of our faces.

The Leftists wouldn’t shut up regarding Dubya’s EOs.

>> He’s abolishing the Constitution in front of our faces.

While the other branches sit by and gaze.

The Country must elect Constitutional-minded ass-kickers. Unfortunately, too many are afraid to make that choice.

- It is also time for all members of the US Supreme Court to realize that more than oner of them is being widely mentioned concerning the real possibility of their impeachment and removal from SCOTUS -

- Remember how uppity and threatening Justice O’Connor became when many American citizens started to question her judgement, competency, and Imperial public comments?

Mental health will be defined and interpretec by the 0 administration. This lays the grounwork for complete disarmament if no one is keeping tabs on who is denied or not.

The VA is paranoid about the number of vets who are committing suicide. That is why they ask.

Veteran suicides are a bad thing and the VA is very, very sensitive about that. Believe it or not, they do care about you (most of the time) and they don’t want you to off yourself or anybody else (like the Washington Navy Yard shooter did). A large percentage of the folks who work at the VA are themselves veterans.

Like I said, it is very difficult to get someone declared incompetent to the point that they would make an issue about firearms ownership. The only ones I have seen declared incompetent were absolutely incompetent and no longer had decision-making capability about anything. Of course, owebama could issue a regal decree tomorrow that could change all of this.

Its like my boss told me a couple of weeks ago: “You are practicing in the only field of medicine in which ALL of your patients have been trained in the use of firearms.”

The Department of Health and Human Services also will propose a regulation aimed at making it easier for states to submit information about the mentally ill to the federal system, without blocking all people who seek mental health treatment from owning guns.

Who gets to decide the definition of mentally ill and who of the supposedly mentally ill should not have weapons?

I do not think it is possible to pen a more accurate, cogent commentary on the “Tet Offensive”.

Masterful...

In other news, gun and ammunition prices are up, availability down.

30-06 rounds were going for $3.00 last I checked. 22 ammo is from 22 to 50 cents a round, if you could find any. 223 stuff is fairly plentiful at about 40 cents.

Some prices here at GunBot

Executive orders are supposed to be used to organize the executive branch of government, they are not laws.

They are not Laws, in name only, they certainly have the effect of law and require a super majority of both houses to undo them. In effect they become Constitutional Amendments, which is much worse. Executive Orders can be undone with the stroke of a pen, by a sitting President.

You must wait for boarding instructions at your local train station.
