BREAKING: King Obama to wave his scepter and create new gun purchase background checks

[sonic]

Dear god, all the drama when none of you know what new regulations are going to be introduced. Ridiculous.
People whine and moan about Presidents who take executive action then elect the same ineffective corrupt congress people who force these actions because they refuse to work together - or in this case, corrupt congress people bought by the NRA who are afraid to take even the slightest action on background checks.

Bought by the NRA? nothing gives any President the RIGHT to step on our second amendment right. but I suppose you don't have a problem with the UNIONS when these buy these corrupted bastards, or the Envionmentalist,, etc

the NRA is made up the same as a union. of MILLIONS of Americans who joins it and expects them to protect them from people like Obama. so your all dumb fixation with the NRA is your just that. a fixation, your boogyman, your enemy evidently. which means so are the MILLIONS of the people in this country who make up the membership. we don't need you to come in here and chastise anyone. worry about yourself

I have no fixation on the NRA. They have their place to protect gun ownership and I have no argument with that aspect, but when any organization buys and corrupts congresspeople be they the NRA, Unions, Wall Street, etc, then we should all stand against that kind of corruption.
Republicans and some Democrats refuse to discuss anything related to background checks because they're afraid of losing NRA support/funding. That's the very definition of corruption.

Looks like Obama is going out with a bang

Watch him once again accomplish more than Congress

An executive order? Really. Easily undone.

Have to get a Republican elected first

Like that's going to happen

Oh, I think Obama is going to hand the election to the Republicans before he's through with his executive orders. Even a lot of Democrats are gun owners. Obama is pissing off a lot of people. He's the gift that keeps on giving.

332-206
Merry Christmas.

Republicans would have to have a candidate in order for that to happen, but all they have is a clown car full of losers and wackos.

Obama to announce new executive action on guns

CNN)President Barack Obama is expected to announce in the coming days a new executive action with the goal of expanding background checks on gun sales, people familiar with White House planning said.

Described as "imminent," the set of executive actions would fulfill a promise by the President to take further unilateral steps the White House says could help curb gun deaths.

Plans for the action are not yet complete, and those familiar with the process warn that unforeseen circumstances could delay an announcement. But gun control advocates are expecting the new actions to be revealed next week, ahead of Obama's annual State of the Union address, set for January 12.

The White House wouldn't comment directly on the exact timing or content of Obama's executive orders. White House spokesman Eric Schultz said that the President expected a set of recommendations on unilateral action to arrive at the beginning of the year.

He said Obama was "expressing urgency" for a list of steps he can take on his own after high-profile incidents of gun violence at the end of this year.

"It is complicated. That's why it's taken some time for our policy folks, our lawyers, and our expects to work through this and see what's possible," Schultz said.

Gun control advocates and White House officials say the focus remains on the so-called "gun show loophole," which allows certain sellers of guns -- at gun shows and elsewhere -- to avoid conducting background checks before making sales.

Months after the Newtown, Connecticut elementary school massacre that claimed 26 victims, the then-Democratic majority Senate rejected a similar proposal.

Congress would still need to act in order to make background checks fully universal. But advocates and administration lawyers have struck upon a provision in the law that could allow for Obama to expand the background check requirement to additional sellers.

Federal law currently requires all individuals "engaged in the business" of selling guns to obtain a license and conduct background checks on buyers. But others who only make occasional sales or are selling firearms from a personal collection are exempted from the background check requirement.

Gun control advocates say Obama could take action himself by issuing a regulation that provides expanded guidance on who falls under the "in the business" standard.

One group, the Michael Bloomberg-helmed Everytown for Gun Safety, has provided recommendations to the White House that include creating a test for assessing who must become licensed to continue selling guns. Factors would include volume and speed of sales, and whether or not the seller relies on advertising to sell guns.

The group also recommended Obama define a gun in a "personal collection" as having been in the seller's possession for at least a year.

Before leaving for his winter vacation in Hawaii, Obama met with Bloomberg at the White House to discuss gun control.

Aside from the background check provision, people familiar with Obama's plans say his new gun control announcement will include new funding for government agencies to better enforce existing gun laws.

GOOD. Why is it conservatives in other countries actually work towards limiting gun violence, instead of just enabling it? They don't hide behind pretense and keep fueling the fire, they actually work towards limiting gun violence. Enough of this pandering to gun owners.

Why do Liberals demand rights for criminals and deny rights of innocents?

That sure does sound familiar.

They don't have a candidate that would see 270 outside of major gaffes by Hillary. So for this election season, she's been on message so well that you can set your watch by her speeches.

In a binary election like we have in the US, anything can happen. Hillary can still very easily lose this election.

What you don't know is that what you and your idiot president plan to do won't save a single life

Not my president, and I don't much like him, but he has this right.
You, on the other hand, have it wrong.

http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2015/10/03/us/how-mass-shooters-got-their-guns.html?_r=0

The vast majority of guns used in 15 recent mass shootings, including at least two of the guns used in the San Bernardino attack, were bought legally and with a federal background check. At least eight gunmen had criminal histories or documented mental health problems that did not prevent them from obtaining their weapons.

New. stronger checks will help prevent many or most of the massive gun mass murders you see in the US.
Of course, the NRA and its dodgy pals don't want any gun control at all because when the US public realise the truth, they'll eventually force votes to dump the lot - and that's a lot of lost profit.

The so called stronger checks won't do anything, since most of the mass shootings were done with legally owned firearms.

 

[candycorn]

Look; despite whatever Obama does and whatever the Courts say about it and whatever the gun inudstry does to counter-punch instead of working with the President to improve it's image and limit the number of killings....

Nobody can deny that we have more guns in the hands of citizens than any other developed nation.

Nobody can deny that we have more gun deaths than any other developed nation.

Nobody can seriously argue that a society having more guns in the hands of it's population has reduced gun deaths

These are the three simple truths that 2nd Amendment Advocates cannot shed.

We have no way of knowing whether or not stronger checks will prevent future attacks. You can't look at history to predict the future of violent attacks.

Just what are you hiding?
You will need to take a drug test also now...

Yeah that will work in Chicago with the gangs. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

He is wanting to close the loop hole for gun show dealers...oh my!!!

Do you mean the one that doesn't exist?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Americans want comprehensive background checks

Congress has been blocking it for four years....let Obama do it

Sure! Let's let the dictator take over every aspect of our lives! What's few more violations of our constitutional rights between friends?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Barack Hussein Obama, you miserable disgusting traitor, I will not comply. Go fuck yourself.

Yes, it's terrible that an American president is trying to do something about mass murder in society.

Which mass murderer bought any guns privately at a gun show, not from a FFL dealer?

Most Americans agree with it, even NRA members.

Ljnk?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

I can't understand how gun owners would want guns sold to known felons and crazies
Background checks are a minor inconvenience

They are already required except for private sales.

Why must you lie?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

Trying to keep Americans safe is the president`s job. Most people are against shooting up a class room full of 2nd graders or 80 people in a movie theater. Why are gun pussies so anti-life?

Were any of those weapons bought by private sales?

Let's say ,I don't abide by these stupid rules, how will they know?
