"When you think its time to bury your guns is EXACTLY when it is time to dig them up." applause photo: applause 1ApplauseCard.gif Well said. `What? The British are coming to take our powder and ball stores at Concord? Why, we'd better hide our guns .... ' I'm as tired of hearing about "boating accidents" as I am of referencing young, black thugs as "Amish".

Valerie Jarrett, Obama's chief advisor said that Obama would be "ready to rule from day one"

Well this is what a despot does...rules the peasantry.

Presidents can not change laws. Even if they think they can. Ignore him.

He is not the president. He can do anything he wants.

I’m white, male, heterosexual, and Christian. I can’t get a government job.

“A lot of them will be shocked when they lose, at least that’s how I hope it will go. It really should.”

That’s the Hobson’s choice they want to create, lots of Democrats win because people reject the Republican weenies, so then Congress can participate in passing socialism again.

Patriots, please bear in mind the following. The RINO-controlled Congress is wrongly letting lawless, last-term Obama steal legislative branch powers in order to make his unconstitutional executive orders. Lawmakers are letting Obama get away with doing this, imo, because they presumably support the orders that Obama is making and want to keep their voting records clean so that they can be reelected.

Congress is likewise letting lifetime state sovereignty-ignoring justices and non-elected federal bureaucrats, such as those running the constitutionally undefined EPA, steal legislative branch powers to do Congresss dirty legislative work for it.

Again, by allowing this to happen, corrupt lawmakers are keeping their voting records clean to fool low-information voters into reelecting them.

In fact, non-legislative branch people are exercising legislative powers that the states have never amended the Constitution to delegate to Congress.

Remember in November !

Patriots need to support Trump, or whatever conservative they elect, by also electing a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will work within its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers to support the president.

An added bonus to such a Congress is that it can fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.

The only gun control I need is to get handy with my left hand while recovering from rotator-cuff surgery on my right side.

O’Drama is going to close the non-existent “gunshow loophole.”

I tried to explain this farce to a coworker who just thought that was a great idea since you can buy a gun at a gunshow with no background check.

I dared him to go to a gunshow and buy a gun without a NICS background check, but he declined saying he’d never be caught dead at a gunshow. That, my FRiends, is called deflection and is a convenient method this cat always uses when I ask him for evidence to backup his Low Information beliefs.

What is going to happen is Barry will declare it illegal for me to loan a firearm to a friend, or swap guns with my brother (something we do every year or so). His gun control won’t stop a single crime it will just further hamstring law-abiding Americans.

Executive Orders, by US Title code, are in-house organs, and therefore, I refuse.

We can honestly say the people we thought represented us and would uphold the laws of this nation don’t so the people have to make the changes necessary

The only legal way to stop him is through . . .

. . . passive and occasionally active resistance by the States and localities.

Just my personal take on how things really happen and what is required to sustain tyranny. (And whenever the courts are wrong, ignore, defy, refuse to enforce, etc., as convenient.)

In some ways, government overreach requires us all to believe in fairies simultaneously. When local officials stop reacting as dutifully, and there is too much of a slowdown everywhere at once, we transition instead to a local policy of "round up the usual suspects." Or more likely, "schedule a meeting with community leaders to discuss the importance of the President's latest initiative, and maybe go bowling as the main part of the meeting."

[[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.]]

And when it DOES NOT- do we the people get to sue him for LYING to us?

[[But the bureaucracy will implement what he decides. You are right presidents don’t make laws.]]

Actually presidents do make laws now- illegally- and congress does NOTHING to prevent htem from doing so unless of course it’s a republican president

[[The only legal way to stop him is through the courts,]]

The same court that illegally called the HC law a tax? (or did they call it ‘not a tax’ in order to get it through as ‘legal’? Can’t remember which now) Then they turned around LATER and called it the opposite-
