An EO to turn in guns would be ignored in mass.
This is really about the evil mentally ill (and I do not believe insanity is ever a defense) and evil men in general.
“An EO to turn in guns would be ignored in mass.”
Such an EO would have to be DIRECTLY addressed by The People, one way or another, come what may.
Mark Levin said on his show this week, that even a legal statute passed by the US Senate and signed by pResident, can’t change the US Constitution. It would be challenged in the courts. Anyone else hear that, or did I mis-hear him?
I don’t see any way for President Obama to pass further gun control. Unless there’s some way for him to issue a EO declaring that semi-automatics fall under the NFA, I don’t see any gun control legislation getting through Congress. I’m sure he’d love to do an EO, but he’s always had the barest amount of wiggle room on these EOs in the past. Is there anything in the NFA that gives the executive branch any leeway on what can be regulated, or does the NFA specifically state it’s restricted to fully automatic weapons? I’m not really familiar with automatic weapon legislation.
