The FAST Approaching Gun Ban

At this point the manufacturer's have won. To many people,politicians, agree with them in the US. I'd move out if I was you. Seriously. A mass shooting every few days, and daily shooting every few (minutes /seconds)! How can anyone do anything in that kind of environment? I thought the tipping point would have been when the little children were shot , but NO! Nothing happened! That's seriously fucked up, as someone from outside the US , I can say that's really not right. Any sane person should get out of that shit ASAP. On a minor note, I also see this as rift between the Left and Right , it's getting to big.

.....

Just my humble opinion

Attachment 903493

So Obama is going to bypass Congress and attempt:

• All sellers must be licensed and conduct background checks, overturning current exemptions to some online and gun show sellers
• States must provide information on people disqualified due to mental illness or domestic violence
• FBI will increase workforce processing background checks by 50%, hiring more than 230 new examiners
• Congress will be asked to invest $500m (£339m) to improve access to mental healthcare
• The departments of defence, justice and homeland security will explore "smart gun technology" to improve gun safety

Now how could anyone object? But they will

Good points, but let me anticipate the considered response of the pro-gun lobby.


• That’s Big Government trying to regulate a private market.

• That’s Big Government spying on innocent citizens.

• That’s an expansion to even Bigger Government.

• That’s just giving our hard earned tax dollars to freeloading retards. Besides, I don’t believe in taxes.

• My gun’s already smarter than I am. It went off last evenin’ whiles I were cleanin’ it, befored I figer’d out it were tryin’ ta tell me I’da already cleaned it in der afternoon.

To be expected - such reasonable people

The fact that anyone could support Obama's executive action regarding firearms shows a complete lack of respect for the government process. Setting a precedence of using executive action to bypass the legislative branch is a dangerous and slippery slope. We've seen it to disastrous results in the past, including Executive Order 9066.

What else can he do against the gun lobby, NRA and GOP?

He is dealing with the Congress, that has pass the least bills in history, according to my understanding. So if the executive action that bad, they should get together and pass new legislation. Then there would be a public record of who approves and who does not. They say the majority of the public approves some type of stricter regulations. American society is expanding the amount of places people can carry guns, legally, so with this, I say why not add increased accountability.

Ted Nugent and the pro-gun movement at their classiest. It's difficult to have a discussion about gun control when maniacs control the debate with this kind of unhinged scapegoating. Even if you take away the anti-Jewish element, you still have a completely illogical discussion about gun-grabbers, people who hate freedom et al. You cannot get anywhere if you are unwilling to even fairly characterize your opponent's position.
