President Joe Biden apparently plans to make gun control a campaign issue, even if he doesn’t have the votes to pass more gun control laws.
On Tuesday, Biden will announce an executive order intended to control the availability of guns as much as he can without going through Congress.
He’ll make the announcement in Monterey Park, California, where 72-year-old Huu Can Tran shot and killed eleven people with a semi-automatic pistol in January, during Lunar New Year celebrations. […]
President Biden continues to insist on passage of an “assault weapons” ban, a blanket term that could cover many of the firearms sold in this country. But with a Republican-controlled House, that is unlikely to happen in at least the next two years.
Biden also wants Congress to ban “high-capacity magazines,” require background checks for all gun sales, including private sales between individuals; pass “safe storage” laws, and repeal gun manufacturers’ immunity from liability, something that would put gun makers out of business by driving them into bankruptcy. …

If law abiding gun stores (owners) do not enforce this new “law” they will lose their ability to operate and could face jail time as well as fines. Soon no more law-abing gun stores.
Unprintable.
Has nothing to do with criminals. Intention is to disarm the law abiding citizen for fear of a general armed uprising of their, democratic, communist policies being implemented.
Gun control problems “solved” back in 1968. the Democrats said so!
“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.”-— Lyndon Johnson signing the 1968 gun control act into law.
And Thomas J. Dodd, who wrote the 1968 gun control act using the 1938 Nazi weapons act as a pattern...
“No one can predict how many lives will be spared because of this bill, but, if the bloody record of our yesterdays is any measure, millions of future Americans will live to enjoy the promise of many peaceful tomorrows.
I am grateful to have had the opportunity to play a part in this great moment in our time.” Thomas J. Dodd on passage of the 1968 Gun control act.
“... semi-automatic pistol ...”
Aren’t most pistols semi-automatic?
SCOTUS then took the case and ruled...9-0...in Caetano's favor. In the decision the justices said that the SJC's ruling was "frivolous" and in direct violation of at least one previous SCOTUS ruling.
I'm no constitutional scholar but it seems to me that the Federal courts would strike down The Big Guy's ban on "assault weapons" citing the "Caetano" decision,among other things.
Always good to see that video. 👍
This is his whole (gangster) rulership: bypass Congress, preach to his subjects.
Bitem is a dictator!
Ditto x 100 this post.
What part of ‘...being NECESSARY for the SECURITY of a FREE state...’ don’t they get, in the WH?
The commies always make me laugh when all of a sudden only the Second Amendment is referring to, “the people” as a collective and not a singular right.
