An EO is about the only way Obama could get something like his draconian gun bans passed. And (if I'm not mistaken) an EO only lasts as long as his presidency. So in 4 years, not only will Obama be gone, but much of congress that goes along with this as well.
This could be the constitutional mandate to get the progressives (in both parties) out!

I know, it's like watching someone take the dummy off the baby.........except it's a bloody country! That place must be a right messed up hole if people need guns so bad to feel as if they can lead a normal life?
America land of the Paranoid gun owners.

I think as I type this they are going through popular forums and social networks looking for feedback on how this information is being taken by the general public.

But you know what is sad....a lot of people won't do anything even if this happens, the only thing that might start it off is when the boots hit the ground and we hear about families getting raided and their guns confiscated.

You know what you WON'T hear about are the incidents where people fight back and overwhelm the confiscators. Those will be non-events so that they don't 'embolden' others to resist.
Why so adamant about keeping a bloody gun?
What is going to happen, please tell me?
Are you that keen to "kill" somebody?
LOGANVILLE, Ga. —
A woman hiding in her attic with children shot an intruder multiple times before fleeing to safety Friday.
The incident happened at a home on Henderson Ridge Lane in Loganville around 1 p.m. The woman was working in an upstairs office when she spotted a strange man outside a window, according to Walton County Sheriff Joe Chapman. He said she took her 9-year-old twins to a crawlspace before the man broke in using a crowbar.
But the man eventually found the family.
"The perpetrator opens that door. Of course, at that time he's staring at her, her two children and a .38 revolver," Chapman told Channel 2’s Kerry Kavanaugh.
The woman then shot him five times, but he survived, Chapman said. He said the woman ran out of bullets but threatened to shoot the intruder if he moved.
The woman ran to a neighbor's home with her children. The intruder attempted to flee in his car but crashed into a wooded area and collapsed in a nearby driveway, Chapman said.

America was technically a peaceful declaration of independence until the British invaded, although the boston tea party would be called a terrorist act by todays standards it didn't kill anyone. Then it got violent, so to take a lesson from history, wait till the goons bust your door down before you start firing, and don't be like that moron who pledges to "start shooting" if an executive order is passed.

I see you are refusing to address ANY of my points and the best I am going to get out of you is answering a question with a question.
You have now outed yourself and you have been properly marked for who you are in this thread.

THIS is the answer to your question in the simplest way I can describe it. Now, I am well aware that you are not going to "get it" and I understand your question was completely rhetorical and you are in no way interested in learning or growing beyond your current understanding of the way in which our world and the people within it works so, I know this is falling on deaf ears but hey, someone else might get something out of it.
