Obama's Gun Control Efforts May Follow Cap and Trade Path: Executive Order to Restrict Gun Ownership

When Obama couldn't get cap and trade passed in Congress, he became a dictator engaging in tyranny. He bypassed Congress and told the EPA to begin regulating carbon anyway. Now, as Obama prepares to take on the Second Amendment, it is being said he may follow the cap and trade path to keep more Americans from owning firearms.

Faced with a Congress hostile to even slight restrictions of Second Amendment rights, the Obama administration is exploring potential changes to gun laws that can be secured strictly through executive action, administration officials say.

The Department of Justice held the first in what is expected to be a series of meetings on Tuesday afternoon with a group of stakeholders in the ongoing gun-policy debates. Before the meeting, officials said part of the discussion was expected to center around the White House’s options for shaping policy on its own or through its adjoining agencies and departments — on issues ranging from beefing up background checks to encouraging better data-sharing.

Administration officials said talk of executive orders or agency action are among a host of options that President Barack Obama and his advisers are considering. “The purpose of these discussions is to be a productive exchange of good ideas from folks across the spectrum,” one official said. “We think that’s a good place to start.”

Oh, the executive order! If you still don't believe Obama is a tyrant, watch him use these executive orders now to restrict more of your freedoms. They are openly talking about it.
