Gun Owners of America: Time to Let Gun Grabbers Know We Will Not Comply

[E. Pluribus Unum]

On November 12, CBS NEWS reported that “White House lawyers” are examining gun laws to find an avenue where President Obama can use executive action to go around Congress and expand background checks to cover private gun sales.

Obama and the attorneys are trying to determine a threshold that private gun owners who sell and trade guns would cross in order to be treated like licensed gun dealers. Once they cross that threshold—which NBC News reported might be “50 or 100 guns a year”—private citizens would be required to go through a licensed dealer and obtain a background check in order to sell a gun to a neighbor, co-worker, or parent. In other words, the private gun sales Americans have conducted since 1791 would be done away.

Guns Owners of America’s (GOA) executive director Larry Pratt recently talked to Breitbart News about this behind-the-scenes maneuver and said it is past time for GOP leaders in Congress to stand up in clear opposition to Obama’s plans. He also suggested it may be time for law-abiding citizens to simply let it be known that they will not comply, much like citizens in Washington state did after Michael Bloomberg and other one-percenters doled over millions upon millions of dollars to expand background checks to private gun sales in that state.

I believe that most/all gun crime has been by non voter/ non party affiliated /young liberals.

Barry need only appeal to his base to turn in their guns (if any).

Within 6 months, all democratic/democrat (whatever they call themselves) will have to turn in their guns.

After all, why should any dem, lib, progressive etc need to have a gun (or a single bullet...)

Don’t need the oil or the pitchforks; plenty of lamp posts and tree limbs available.

I don' know if this is known, and I just didn't know, but I'm afraid they've done another federal law like they did with the Lautenberg (sp?) amendment on us. Look up Title 18 US code, Section 922 (g)(3).

Apparently it is a Federal Crime to be an "addict" in possession of a firearm. What is an addict? I don't know. I just know about the law from reading an article about a lawyer losing his license to pleading guilty to this charge. He got charged with it when the State case for drugs fell through. He got arrested in a sting where a client was supposedly paying him for legal services with prescription meds. He had a gun on him at the time.

When was this law passed? Who is an "addict"?

Almost all CA handguns, so-called assault weapons, rifles and shotguns are required to be registered. Also, no face to face sales. Almost all sales have to go thru FFL.

I'm sure many Californians ignore these diktats. As they should.
