President Obama is expected to enact more gun control next month via executive order, circumventing Congress and further cementing the feeling among many Americans that the commander-in-chief would like nothing more than to repeal the Second Amendment.
The way Obama’s actions are perceived is unfortunate because sometimes what he wants to do makes sense.
But so many Americans don’t trust him and think he’s at best grossly out of touch with reality, that any gun control push by him is immediately highly suspect.
Obama’s executive order is expected to make it illegal for people selling guns from their personal collections to do so without performing background checks on the buyers. |

Except that his actions don't make sense.
Criminals will still get guns. And I have yet to see where a terrorist or mass shooter acquired guns via the so called gun show loophole. |

Obama illegally making law allowed by the legislative branch making selling your legal property illegal without government permission. Lets make Obama pass a FBI background check to hold highly classified information. He would no way pass a background check having associated with terrorists, Ayers and wife, communist Van Jones, member of the New Party in college, fake BC, draft registration and social security numbers. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
