In their final months in office, presidents typically focus on building a legacy. One way President Obama is doing that is by tightening federal gun laws. While wiping back tears in a Tuesday speech from the White House, he announced several executive actions he claimed would reduce gun crimes, in particular, the kinds of mass shootings seen in San Bernardino on Dec. 2.
Yet as a former federal judge, Andrew Napolitano, pointed out on FoxNews.com, “Congress has expressly removed occasional sales (sales not made by full-time dealers) from the obligation of obtaining federal licenses and from conducting background checks.” Mr. Obama’s attempt to mandate such checks “will be invalidated by the courts,” he predicted. |

| The purpose is not to stop shootings. If that were the case Obama would not be releasing thousands of felons and allowing millions of illegals. The reason is registration. If you want to sell your gun you need and FFL. Thus the Feds will know eventually who has the guns and come in & inspect them at your house at least once per year. |
