Obama considers dictatorial control over guns

And why not? Afterall, as theRightScoop explains, "The president who got the dictator vote is once again going to act like a dictator and go around Congress to issue an executive order to deal with guns..."

TheWeeklyStandard: Vice President Joe Biden revealed that President Barack Obama might use an executive order to deal with guns.



"The president is going to act," said Biden, giving some comments to the press before a meeting with victims of gun violence. "There are executives orders, there's executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet. But we're compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members as well as legislative action that we believe is required."

Biden said that this is a moral issue and that "it's critically important that we act."

Biden talked also about taking responsible action. "As the president said, if you're actions result in only saving one life, they're worth taking. But I'm convinced we can affect the well-being of millions of Americans and take thousands of people out of harm's way if we act responsibly."

Biden, as he himself noted, helped write the Brady bill.

Eric Holder was scheduled to be at the meeting that's currently taking place at the White House.

Biden...act responsibly? Laughable.

You know, this action is reminiscent of at least a few past world leaders...

“The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let’s not have any native militia or native police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order throughout the occupied Russian territories, and a system of military strong-points must be evolved to cover the entire occupied country.” ~ Adolf Hitler, dinner talk on April 11, 1942

Nazi Germany established gun control in 1938 and from 1939 to 1945, 13 million Jews and others who were unable to defend themselves were rounded up and exterminated.

“If the opposition disarms, well and good. If it refuses to disarm, we shall disarm it ourselves.” ~ Joseph Stalin



In 1929, the Soviet Union established gun control. From 1929 to 1953, about 20 million dissidents, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated. By 1987 that figure had risen to 61,911,000.

“The measures adopted to restore public order are: First of all, the elimination of the so-called subversive elements. … They were elements of disorder and subversion. On the morrow of each conflict I gave the categorical order to confiscate the largest possible number of weapons of every sort and kind. This confiscation, which continues with the utmost energy, has given satisfactory results.” ~ Benito Mussolini, address to the Italian Senate, 1931

The list goes on...

Well, at least it's law of the land now that they can't collect info on lawful gun owners (thanks, Harry?)...but I know of nothing that will stop this regime from seeking to reverse that one with just as much vigor as they demonstrate in their efforts to unravel our Second Amendment...or the Bill of Rights on whole for that matter, as Levin brought to our attention yesterday...

"...to completely read the second amendment out of existence, and to also continue its attack on aspects of the first amendment."



Once again, it seems it's time to light up the Capitol Hill switchboard.
