White House Delivers
The president signed 23
Vice President Biden had been tasked with surveying various anti-gun interests |
"The world has changed and it's demanding action," (but he won't tell you that we actually need more guns, not less to protect our families) Vice President Joe Biden said, acknowledging the political challenges ahead. Mr Biden had been tasked with bringing (illegal) recommendations to the president.
The president said in a news conference on Wednesday he will sign 23 executive actions (many of which are unconstitutional and illegal), but said they are not a substitute for action in Congress.
As part of his $500m (£311m) plan, he called on federal lawmakers to pass several proposals (to reduce the constitutional right of gun ownership) "right away", including universal background checks for anyone trying to buy a gun.
Right now, some 40% of US gun purchases are made without background checks (meaning 60 percent of gun purchaser's rights are already being violated).
Mr Obama also asked Congress to restore the (unconstitutional) expired ban on military-style assault weapons and to enact a (NEW and unconstitutional)10-bullet limit on high-capacity ammunition magazines (to limit law-abiding citizens ability to protect themselves not only from direct harm but from a tyrannical government).
And he said Congress has to "help (by aiding and abetting his constitutional violations,) rather than hinder" law enforcement DOJ's efforts on gun
"If there is even one life that can be saved, then we've got an obligation to try (excluding the million kill by coat hangers of course). And I'm here to do my part" (by playing your heartstrings so you won't think about the amount of lives saved by firearms), the president said.
He called on constituents in parts of the country that are traditional gun ownership strongholds (who recognize the importance of exercising the God-given constitutional rights) - specifically "responsible gun owners" - to make their support for stronger controls known (and violate their own personal beliefs, similar to the forced contraceptives that Christians now must endure) so "the usual suspects (aka Americans who love their freedom and who speak for the majority)"
The announcement promises to set up a bitter fight (for our republics survival) with a powerful pro-gun lobby that has long
"This is the land of the free and the home of the brave and always will be" (ROFL!!!), Mr Obama said, acknowledging the Constitution's Second Amendment right to bear arms. "But with rights, come responsibilities" (which can all be achieved without gun control).
"We live in a society. A
The fundamental rights to life and liberty have been denied to the victims of gun violence (so law-abiding citizens should lose theirs too), he said.
He added: "
Following his speech the president signed some of the executive actions that do not need Congressional approval. They are reported to include measures to stiffen enforcement of existing laws and launching a national responsible gun ownership campaign (that will continually be expanded until cost and out of reach expectations push gun ownership out of reach).
Type "D" typical: Children being used as props to gain sympathy, guilt and panic among low-information, useful idiot voters is a tactic common among Democratic politicians |
Mr Obama said 900 Americans had been killed by gun violence in the month since that deadly shooting and dozens in the already gun-free city of Chicago.
In response to Wednesday's announcement, the National Rifle Association issued a statement saying, "attacking firearms and ignoring children is not a solution".
"Only honest, law-abiding gun owners will be affected and our children will remain vulnerable to the inevitability of more tragedy," the statement said.
Meanwhile, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said on Wednesday he will begin hearings in two weeks on gun safety proposals.
Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont – a gun owner – said he wants to hold a series of hearings examining violence in popular media and how to keep guns safe, among other topics.
His plan could lead to a slower process in Congress than gun control advocates would like (meaning yesterday).
