greeley gazette -- Plans include enacting restrictions via Executive Order, bypassing Congress
While the Obama administration said it is committed to gun rights, a gun control advocate has spilled the beans, saying Obama is using stealth to work on firearms restrictions.
The Washington Post did a story on Steve Croley, the White House gun control czar. Croley is considered to be an expert on regulation and tort law. His approach to gun control appears to be a regulatory one.
According to the article, Jim and Sarah Brady visited Capital Hill on March 30, the 30th anniversary of the assassination attempt on Ronald Reagan; to push for a ban on "large magazines."
The couple reportedly were meeting with press secretary, Jay Carney, when, according to Sarah Brady, the President came in. She said the President told her he wanted to talk about gun control and "fill us in that it was very much on his agenda."
She went on to say Obama told her, "I just want you to know that we are working on it. We have to go through a few processes, but under the radar."
The statement reinforces an article in the Huffington Post describing how the administration is exploring ways to bypass Congress and enact gun control through executive action. - Read more...
Blog author's comments - Of the many things that Obama is doing that represent a danger to our country, this is the one that may have the most potential for a huge backlash.
Most of Obama’s policies are destroying us slowly. Take away the firearms and you have subjects, not citizens.
That said, I would be surprised if he attempted any serious damage with regard to gun control before the election of 2012. Many liberals also own and want to keep their guns and Second Amendment rights.
But, if he wins a second term and gains seats in the Senate and House, there will be no stopping him. The onslaught will be heaped upon us on a weekly basis.
