Here we go (obama on gun control on fox right now)

So does the EO now require FTF private party background checks effective immediately or no?

No, that was not an EO. He will need Congress for this one.

[hollohas]

the AW ban will never make it through Congress.

I'm wouldn't be so sure.

[Jer]

Hmmm...So far so good, the AW ban will never make it through Congress. They might however do a mag restriction just to keep the peace.

Bullshit! That's why they'are asking for the stars because they KNOW people will settle somewhere in the middle. It's already too much. Magazine capacity restrictions do NOTHING to save anyone and I will be damned if I support my representatives to agree with such bullshit laws in the name of safety. People need to stop saying shit like this like it's already happened too because the more times we hear it the more people start to believe it. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET. We should ALL be up in arms about NOTHING happening either. Stop with the appeasement statements because I'm done. My lawn has been drawn and I urge the rest of you to do the same. We haven't he duty as citizens of this great nation to practice civil disobedience whenever the laws are unfair and unjust.

Guess I'll be lying to my doctor. Last time I was asked I was still active duty - gave the doctor a funny look and said "Of course I spend time around guns, I'm in the military?!" That got me a lecture about lead exposure and children.

Don't stop writing, emailing, calling your reps. The king has encouraged his supporters to put pressure on congress.

THIS!

After seeing that speech, this is all that came to mind:

[CrufflerSteve]

His reach with EO's doesn't infringe as badly as people think. I'm not even worried about an AWB being reinstated federally. I'm worried about Colorado - those traitors can push through anything they want here. We've become so inundated with bleeding-heart West Coasters that the state would happily trade those "inalienable" rights for the ability to smoke dope legally. Keep them all placid and stoned while the constitution is eroded a piece at a time.

Damned right! We've all been focusing on the national when we have a Dem gov and legislature. Now's its time to let them know we are watching. I live in Douglas county and have written real letters to let them know I'm now single issue. If you live in any district with a mixed voter makeup let them know how you feel.

+1 - Now's not the time to let up. I think there's enough Republicans and conservative Democrats to keep another AWB from passing, but I expect they're going to pass something we won't like.

[muddywings]

As Dingo said above, more worried about CO representatives going full retard. Glad I live in El Paso--I could see us being one of the few islands in a small sea of stupidity called CO.

"Plus the president wants to commit $4 billion to hiring more police officers, and to pass new gun trafficking laws to explicitly prohibit straw purchasing. "

HUH? Ya, that will help. Now it more illegal?

[Byte Stryke]

16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation

Doctor: So, are there any firearms in the Home?
Me: "I WANT A LAWYER! I AM BEING INTERROGATED!"
