Email Share Breaking: President Announces Gun Control Policies Kyle Becker December 19, 2012 12:02 pm

President Obama announced gun control policies this morning at 11:45 a.m. Eastern. As reported on a local NBC News affiliate Channel 11 in Georgia, the administration will launch a major effort to develop and implement gun control policies the administration claims will help prevent another mass school shooting.

The president is tasking gun control expert, serial gaffe-master Vice President Joe Biden to head up what one presumes will be called a blue ribbon commission unilateral effort on why law-abiding citizens can no longer be trusted to possess certain kinds of guns, while only police, government law enforcement, and the U.S. military can.

The NBC report rightly captures the sense of urgency among some politicians to force through sweeping federal gun control legislation without reasoned deliberation, a proper discussion of the government’s powers, or a debate over the nature of people’s rights. Others might describe this urgency as politicians taking advantage of a legitimate crisis to exploit those who are emotionally willing to let their guard down.

this article is from an ‘email share’? Are there any actual news links to confirm this? There’s been plenty of hoax emails through hte years- not sayin this is a hoax, but I’m always skeptical of emails that get forwarded around- I’ve been stung by supposedly ‘true’ info before that turned out to be false-

“Geeze. The gun-grapping commies aren’t even waiting for the bodies to get cold. They’re jumping on those kids while they’re still a hot item.”

We saw the freaks intercept the bodies from Benghazi to optimally use them as campaign props....

They are positively reinforced to stop at nothing to achieve their political aims, because it’s always ok when a Democrat does it.

Did I mention that the 1968 Gun Control Law was based on the 1938 Nazi Weapons Act of Nazi Germany.

Thomas J Dodd had a copy of it to copy from.

Great job, Barry. Offload the issue to your VP so that when nothing comes of it, your fingerprints are nowhere near it. Gotta love the dog and pony show this morning.

I wish that someone with a spine (in Washington) would make a big deal out of the fact that these shootings, Newtown & Clackamas, happened in liberal enclaves. (plenty of democrats own guns) Jared Loughner had been a supporter of Gabrielle Giffords. Why are lefties disproportionately likely to freak out & go on a shooting spree? ;-) They’re “smart”, too. They always choose a place that they know guns are prohibited.

“I puked in my mouth when he played the ‘murdered babies’ card as a reason for the GOP to cave on the ‘fiscal cliff’.”

And we should be hitting them hard on abortion right now (since they brought it up) Let’s see how sincere they are about “murdered babies”.

.
All teachers to receive gun handling training and expected to be proficient in protecting their pupils?

Good move, Bambi.

Consider me irrational then, I disagree with everything that sob does.

No. You are not irrational for disagreeing with him. You are irrational if you think his insult is not intentional.

ps. What do they plan to do about those “assault weapons” Holder had “walked” to the Mexican drug cartels?

This is a case of people in glass houses throwing some really big boulders.

Yikes, did you notice 12-21 is on a Friday? Can’t wait to see what this Friday’s afternoon news dump brings. You can bet he’ll bypass the congress wimps AGAIN and issue a super duper fast emergency EO over this.

Did you forget that 12-21-12 is the day that the world ends?

Quo Warranto?

He has no authority to, and is a member of a conspiracy to deprive Americans of a Civil Right.

The articles of Impeachment should be drawn up by now.

Maybe the Senate would not vote to remove him, but it would put the brakes on this crap.

Anybody see what the NYTimes had to say about O using his executive powers to overcome any resistance to gun control?

My brother is an Obamabot, only differeing with him to the extent that he thinks Obama is too far to the right. For example, he claims on health care the republicans won because Obama didn't get single payer. He feels Obamacare is a sham because everybody still got to keep their doctor and insurance (which he apparently objects to) while ignoring the fact that the exchanges aren't yet set up and when they are, goodbye to all that.

Anyway, before the election he was adamant that gun "nuts" drove him crazy with their fear of Obama. He said that Obama was not only not a gun grabber, he actually expanded gun rights by allowing you to carry a gun in federal parks. Well it's about a month after the election and Obama is in full-on gun grabbing mode.

It seems Obama is poised to raise the roof on taxes, cuts the heck out of defense, and grabs all the guns. All within two months of getting re-elected. My brother must be pleased that Obama has come home to his marxist roots. He sends his thanks to all Freepers who kept their own hands ideologically pure and refused to vote for Romney. Mission accomplished!

Funny, I have neither wanted nor felt the need for a semi-auto rifle (can’t be used in PA for hunting) but, I now feel compelled to get one.

You know, It seems like just a couple of mo’s ago, that “dear leader” and others, assured the sheeple that anyone who thought they would try to take guns away from the flock were, basically, nuts....Well, who's the nut now.

I'm sure anyone with the time and inclination could locate many videos, news articles, speeches etc. with these LYING, NO GOOD, POS LIBERAL LIERS, stating just that.

Finishing the job his muslim brothers failed to do on 9/11.

Problem solved in 1968.

“Today we begin to disarm the criminal and the careless and the insane. All of our people who are deeply concerned in this country about law and order should hail this day.- Lyndon Johnson when he signed the 1968 GCA into law.
