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

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

it is unlikely my state would comply with any of the prezbos self imposed gun laws

in fact we have laws against it

fuck em

But yet, to get a job, a company is allowed to violate your privacy to earn an income..

Only if you let them because you want the job.

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

If you need to pass a drug test to get a gun. Then we need to do the same to get a welfare check. Right?

No checks are mailed....

They need to pass a drug test before they are mailed.

yep, they should be MADE to go to the place and get drug tested before they can pick up their checks. and make it be done MONTHLY. these people like all these laws passed on us.

Yep, if I need to be drug tested to earn the money we give them. Then they need to be drug tested to receive it.

People do get tested....soo now it's gun buyers turn to give up the urine....

Nope. Not true. Declared unconstitutional.

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.

Oh the fake outrage!!!

How many of those EOs by Reagan and Bush violated the Constitution?

We already know about the illegal immigration EO that the courts bitch-slapped Obama with!

 

[ThunderKiss1965]

Liberals like to scream about the number of guns in the US. Using that as a reference point how will these new laws keep people with nefarious intentions from getting weapons when they are so many out there?

The Liberal elite wants these new laws to fail so they can pass more laws that will fail until they will say that nothing will work but outlawing firearms for civilian use altogether.

 

[Indofred]

Does this law actually stop anyone but those considered dangerous from owning a gun?

The answer is clearly, "No", so why would anyone oppose this law?

The arms industry's well paid bitches in the senate actually voted to stop gun control for terrorists.
Amazing, but done because once they accept any group can be stopped, they must accept other groups are equally possible.

 

[JimBowie1958]

Does this law actually stop anyone but those considered dangerous from owning a gun?

The answer is clearly, "No", so why would anyone oppose this law?

1. Because this isnot how the Constitution says laws are to be created.
2. Because these laws do NOT keep dangerous people from owning guns.
3. Because these laws will only serve to harass law abiding gun owners and no one else.
4. Because it is just one more feel-good-but-accomplish-nothing effort from politicians to make the public think that they are dilligently at work to protect them, which is 100% bullshit.
5. Because I am sick of being the one to get fucked with when I obey the law and the criminals who do are never punished for it.

It will not stop criminals from getting weapons it will, however, make it harder for law-abiding citizens to exercise their constitutional right to bear arms

Sounds like our Traitor in Chief has solutions in search of a problem.

Yes, background checks are required at gun shoes except, 3rd party sales. I suspect he is trying to make it to where I can't pass a gun down to my kids without going through a B/G check

Look, we know all of you libs are embarrassed by the current administration. You should be, but you can't seem to acknowledge it and just admit you screwed up beyond belief.

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 is it that none of you people have a functioning brain? Seriously? You hear the words Gun Control and you think "good" and you don't have a single clue. What Obama wants to do will not save a single life. Show us an incident where a gun bought from a private sale was used in a mass shooting. This is useless over regulation and you just stupidly say "good".

 

[PredFan]

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.

Hey stupid, "stronger checks" is like saying "more pregnant". Your link fails and so do you.

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

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.
