Obama vows to 'vigorously pursue' gun control, prepares to release proposals
Fox News.com ^ | January 14, 2013

President Obama says he plans to make public later this week the details of his plan to tighten firearms laws based on the findings of a White House task force he commissioned in the aftermath of the fatal Connecticut school shooting.

The task force was led by Vice President Joe Biden and held its final White House meeting Monday, talking with members of the House Democratic Gun Violence Prevention Task Force.

Obama said Monday he planned to meet with Biden to review the findings and will “vigorously pursue” the recommendations in the next few days.

Does he have a proposal for getting guns out of the hands of criminals and gangstas?

Well, did I have it right. King Obama. He is a communists black Muslim and will become America’s first dictator. He has the backing of the MSM, the communists Democratic Party, and his appointed communists in his Administration. He cannot be stopped and we will have no action from the GOP. America is finished.

It is time for the mask to come off and for Obozo to be exposed for how ugly he truly is.

Are the “right people” ready to reveal his true nature? We shall see.

The last time a foreign ruler tried to disarm the American people, we all know what happened.

Hey Obama, since your for “Gun Control” maybe you should first look in the mirror, and ask yourself how come you gave guns to mexican drug dealers who went on to kill hundreds of people

No! Wait a minute! Didn’t he disavow any interest in gun control when he was running in 2008? Has he “evolved” on this, too?

The man is a bald faced liar. I don’t know how so many Americans could be fooled, but we FReepers knew all along that Obama was pro-abortion, pro-sodomy, and pro-gun control. It’s what leftists do. They lie when it serves the cause, and they ALWAYS want more power.

The Democrats have been anti-liberty, immoral statists for a long time. They didn’t suddenly change in 2008. The only difference between then and now is they’re operating in the open now. That means they think they have the upper hand, and maybe they do. We’ll see.

I think the politician gun-free zone petition link should have this boilerplate reply... granted the 25k goal is arbitrary, but that is what it is, and can be reached in the next few days...

Eliminate armed guards for the President, Vice-President, and their families, and establish Gun Free Zones around them

Typical Obama BS.
He doesn’t even know what the recommendations are but he will vigorously pursue them.

Its really difficult to take these pronouncements seriously. Think back to jobs creation etc. Its all a bunch of mouth w/ this guy. The only think he’s pursued w/ great energy is vacation time and golf.

I think the reason he gave Biden the lead on ‘gun control’ is b/c if it crashes and burns (likely) Joe is the fall guy. W/ Barry it all about him all the time. History will talk about the 8 yrs the presidency was all but vacant. Even after 8 yrs Barry can still be called unaccomplished.

According to what Hussein said today to reporters and what's in this Fox article, he's going to release the 19 executive orders toward the end of this week, then, after his inauguration, he will send gun bills to congress for them to pass.

The rub is, he doubts congress will pass anything, so I expect his executive orders will be the big stick (or gun) to eliminate rifles, magazines, register new guns sold, maybe register “assault” rifles already in the public, limit amount of ammo one may buy, tax ammo, send all buyers for a mental test, require a person take a gun course before being able to get a gun of any kind, buy a permit and have to renew it every year, etc., etc.. Just don't know how many of those restrictions he may go for.

I am hearing that the NRA is snubbing Gun Appreaciation Day and telling members of congress to boycott it. Are any of you hearing similar things?

***Now we know for sure that a dictatorship is in the works ***

Will he declare Martial Law to implement his rule as Marcos did in the Philippines?

Hit the nail on the head!

Your post should be the title of its own thread.

That should get the attention of some hot heads on here, and cool their jets some.

To those hot heads I say:

There’s a big difference between an EO and a proposal; an EO would’ve been done already, but what we see here is him saying he’s gonna do a PROPOSAL not an ORDER.
