Well, I think “gun-free” zones are stupid and an invitation to crime, but the President doesn’t get to just take over and reverse local and state laws.
I agree with you. We are running the risk of our President’s becoming Kings who can rule by decree. It is wrong when Obama does it and it would be wrong for a Republican President to do it.
We need to get back to the rule of law and away from the abnormal (executive decree) that has become seemingly normal.
With that said, Trump often overstates things as a matter of principle to make his point. I would hope he would follow the law.
Perhaps Trump doesn’t really know what a president can and cannot do...sort of fits and explains a lot now that I think about it.
You put your finger right on the problem when it comes to Trump. He has been the CEO and has total say in what goes on. A Republic is run differently and he doesn't get it. Problem is a lot of his followers don't get it either and would be sorely disappointed by what he could get accomplished as President.
They come under Federal Law. See post 25.
Tell that to the current resident of WH. He just signed an executive order to require background checks for all gun sales.
