This article provided a lot more information than the other similar article posted earlier.

The takeaway I have from this:

  1. The EO will *not* be that sweeping after all.
  2. Doomberg and OTrauma are going to direct the election money to small state and local politicians. Small town mayers. State legislators. Stuff like that. The bang for the buck with that money is huge, and with a swarm of local politicians, gun bans will be much easier. THE NRA NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE AND ACT.

A new takeaway on this. Massive local election funding from that Motherless F***, Bloomberg.

After all thats happened re gun laws/terrorism I really thing it would be a waste of $. Itll only get some traction in areas where this sort of thing is par for the course and maybe not even then.

I have to wonder what exec authority the president has over gun control. Will these be another exec orderlike the immigration order which was challenged in court?

If that Kenyan sonuvabitch would go after ISIS like he goes after our Second Amendment protected rights to bear arms, America would be declaring victory over those terrorist scumbags.

But of course ‘victory’ is not something Obama is all about, unless it is our enemies victory over US.

Uncle bloomers has managed to fool most of the people in NV to get an initiative on the ‘16 for intergalactic background checks that will finally put a stop to ALL “gun violence” and ALL “domestic violence”. Or so they say. Truck loads of cash will be arriving soon to push the LPOS/SPOS/IPOS/UPOS to vote yes for it. “Sounds good, I’ll sign up for that.” Idiots.

I have never been to a gun show. What is the supposed “loophole?”

Is it as bogus as calling a semi-automatic rifle an “assault rifle?”

Not an expert but here in Texas where there is a state “second amendment” local laws have been over turned because they are unconstitutional in the state.

Sec. 23. RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS. Every citizen shall have the right to keep and bear arms in the lawful defense of himself or the State; but the Legislature shall have power, by law, to regulate the wearing of arms, with a view to prevent crime.

But would they probably work well in Blue states.

"The takeaway I have from this: The EO will *not* be that sweeping after all."

From what I've heard is that EO will merely tighten the definition of what constitutes a "dealer". For example, he could rule that anyone who sells 50 or more guns a year is a dealer and has to conduct background checks on all sales. This would effect a relatively small number of gun enthusiasts who like to buy and sell a lot of guns.

My take:

1. It’s another “symbolism over substance” move meant as a sop to their base.
2. That doesn’t mean that they won’t continue to look for opportunities for backdoor mayhem

Bongo-bongo is that creep on the playground who used to play “Let’s you and him fight” while keeping his mom jeans crisp and spotless.

I have a related takeaway - a CNN investgation piece a couple weeks back revealed that the NRA is about as grassroots at it gets, all of it’s political money comes from small individual donations/donors.

The gun control crowd needs direct financing from the private accounts of Leftist billionaires like Bloomberg to compete with the gun rights grassroots.

Gun rights advocates have a serious, and growing, manpower advantage. The only thing that politicians care about more than money is votes.

Obama meets Bloomberg as he prepares order on guns

Obama meets Bloomberg as he prepares order on guns to rescind the Bill of Rights in his "fundamental transformation of America" from the land of the free to the land of the totalitarian police state.

It’s good Obama is talking to Bloomberg because Bloomberg is a Total Failure with gun control
