“I will put everything I’ve got into this and so will Joe [Biden]. But I tell you, the only way we can change is if the American people demand it,” said Obama. “We are going to need voices in those areas and congressional districts where the tradition of gun ownership is strong.”

“It can’t just be the usual suspects,” he continued. “This will not happen unless the American people demand it.”

Let me emphasize that central line again:  ……”We are going to need voices in those areas and congressional districts where the traditions of gun ownership is strong“…..  FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE !

(excerpt from Huffpo)  […] The proposal, which comes at the end of a month-long review process spearheaded by Vice President Joe Biden, is broken down into four key subsections: law enforcement, the availability of dangerous firearms and ammunition, school safety and mental health.

In an effort to touch on all four of those elements, the president recommended:

• requiring criminal background checks for all gun sales  (a national registry)
• reinstating the assault weapons ban (under the new definition for assault weapons where all semi-automatics are considered “assault – See Fienstein Bill)
• restoring a 10-round limit on ammunition magazines
• eliminating armor-piercing bullets  (also caliber restrictions)
• providing mental health services in schools (and required reporting)
• allocating funds to hire more police officers  (federal)
• and instituting a federal gun trafficking statute, among other policies. (more…)

Having just spent a little time looking over the new Andrew Cuomo approved New York legislative gun controls, one can only come to the conclusion that New York Progressives are stuck on stupid. Seriously.

They rushed through a non-debated, middle of the night, vote before you can read it – bill, that is fraught with serious nonsense the likes of which could only stem from a closed-door progressive, drooling, throw everything on the paper session of supernova gun fearing stupid.

If this bill were not so serious it would be comical. It is so ridiculous, so far past ridiculous, the light from where ridiculous lives would not be able to reach this bill for a year, or more. Even the New York Times thinks it’s a little, well, wrong-minded: (more…)

Brace yourselves – President Obama will announce his gun restrictions tomorrow. He will pander to his base and be surrounded by children, parents, educators and community activists to maintain the optic of pressure against the opposition to his efforts.  His Executive Orders will be portrayed as “brave”, “compassionate”, “bold”, and “courageous”, to defend the nations children from horrible extremist gun owners.

WASHINGTON DC – President Obama will unveil his gun violence proposals Wednesday at the White House, according to people who have been briefed on the event. Obama has invited gun control groups to the White House Wednesday, representatives of three groups that have received invitations told POLITICO.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney announced this afternoon that President Obama will unveil a “concrete package” of gun control proposals including assault weapons bans, high capacity ammunition magazine bans, and closing loopholes on background checks.

Carney said that the president will be joined by Vice President Joe Biden as well as children who wrote to the president after the Newtown shootings. (more…)

Hat Tip BrutalHonesty:  Worth the minute.

A Politico report (below) says that Vice-President Biden will outline nineteen possible Executive Actions that President Obama could take.    I Had an interesting conversation earlier today about this.   On one hand you have people saying that President Obama cannot use his executive power to “change” gun laws;  Call those people Traditional Reference Thinkers. 

On the other hand you have people who recognize President Obama has previously ignored his own Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) regarding the use of Executive Orders and bypassing congress;  Call those people Non-Traditional Reference Thinkers.

Example Here……. and HERE……  and the most staggering example HERE, when he became the first president in history to override his own Office of Legal Counsel and found new lawyers willing to agree with him.

“Presidents have the legal authority to override the legal conclusions of the Office of Legal Counsel and to act in a manner that is contrary to its advice, but it is extraordinarily rare for that to happen. Under normal circumstances, the office’s interpretation of the law is legally binding on the executive branch”.

(*Note, how rare is it for the President to ignore the Top Legal Advice of the OLC?  It’s never happened before….EVER.  That’s how rare !…. ) (more…)

Happily I’ll admit there is a remarkable and growing furor toward the Obama administration about their absolute entrenched position on pending gun ownership restrictions.    Maybe a line in the sand is visible to the Fabian Socialists, maybe.…

Rand Paul emphasizes:  “President Obama is not a king… usurpation will not be tolerated”

Mark Levin weighs in too: “The imperial presidency” (more…)

We know political whores when we see them.   But combine a “Rat Fink” with  a political whore and you get a Chuck Schumer:

Fink – (n):  A contemptible person.  An unpleasant, disappointing, or contemptible person.  To withhold promised support or participation: They said they’d help us, but then finked out.

I knew something about the multiple reports of Chuck Schumer asking retailers not to sell “assault style” rifles was not passing the sniff test.     Like a typical prog-snake in the grass aka “fink”,  and despite the numerous outlets running that story (including Associated Press), it is not on his official “Press Releases”.

We were alerted (via e-mail) to a three part video from sheriff in Kentucky who talked to a group about his opinion/plan/approach regarding federal intervention toward gun control in his county of Jackson in Kentucky.     [We’ll provide a recap video here, and links to the 3 part series after the video].

Sheriff’s opinions are of particular interest to me because they are the TOP constitutional officer in every region.   Often  I come across people who are not aware of the power of the County Sheriff.  Power bestowed upon them by the authority of their position under the U.S. Constitution.    They have far more constitutional power than judges or other elected officials;  and if needed, the country sheriff can arrest any Judge, Mayor, City Police Chief, or even the State Governor or any Federal agent who crosses the county line.  Keep that in mind when you listen to this video provided:
