    I see the forum is malfunctiong again...sigh....There is no gun control law that will prevent druggies from getting guns. That is simply a leftist wet dream. One can make it illegal for folk on specific drugs to own guns, but that would require a lot of cooperation. A better 'solution' would be to take the dangerously ill off the streets bt that would meet a wall of opposition from the civil rights industry.

    What federal legislation would the president be executing by issuing these orders?

    If I read your question correctly, its another "We'll have to pass the order to find out whats in it" type of deals.

    He would be using the widely help legal concept of 'its legal until the court forces me to stop'.

    True patriotism dictates that one must do everything legally possible to collapse the stinking
    operation in Washington. Hopefully, social and racial stresses fueled by skidding economy
    will accelerate the process.

    You sound as if you have no real concept of any of the three. That is the decision you have chosen to make.
    Eva married Adolf. That was theoretically her decision. You would have done a better job at it though.

    Yes, Feinstein is a truly gifted dancer. Of course Biden does the two step with Obama just as well.

    If a whack-job entered another school tomorrow, carrying three totally legal hand guns, and killed 10-15 kids, how is this any different from using so-called assult rifles? My answer is it's not different; an outsider with a gun enters a school and kills some children. Maybe it's two gunmen who kill 20-30 kids? My point is this entire Newtown discussion should not be focused on guns and/or assult rifles. Guns can be a sub-issue to improve but guns are not the problem.

    And I'm not even sure we can call the killing of a few people a problem?? When we have diverse people, with diverse issues and stress, with mental illness, or they're just pissed and drunk or on drugs, they've just been fired, caught their spouse cheating, etc. etc. etc., how can we not expect Newtown and other types of heinous events to take place from time to time? What percentage of the American public, on any given day, are capable of killing another person? I'm guessing the percentage is much larger than we can ever imagine. How many times is there a heinous crime when the friends of the killer say things like 'he was really nice', 'he was as normal as normal can be', 'I am completely shocked', etc.

    This should not be a discussion focused only on guns...

    When Eva started to sign the marriage certificate, she began to sign it Eva B ... then crossed-out the B and finished it in Hitler ... to this day this is a *theoretical discussion of the subconscience*

    Does this ... make any sense to you ?

    By the way, with the school shooting today in which a shot gun was used, a ban on so-called "assault" weapons would have made no difference.
    Luckily adults were able to convince the kid to put his gun down, but according to police the kid had many shot gun shells on him. He could have killed many, and the ban would have accomplished nothing.

    Apparently so ... as well as all the other personnel ... you see, all you need to do is breech the school, open a classroom door and commence to blast every mofo in the room ...

    This is called operational logistics ... which doesn't exist for right-wing hystericals who can't understand that's what firearms are for ... they couldn't even grasp this simple concept when Seal Team Six took out everyone in the Bin Laden compound ....

    Yep. Them gunsters do love them guns. To have and to hold, till death do them part.

    Meanwhile, that 2nd Amendment business about being "well-regulated" that the Founding Fathers saw fit to specify first is being properly addressed.

    Huzzah!

    The well regulated militia does not have the right to bear arms... the people do... with specificity... this way they are prepared to join a well regulated militia in times of need. We were never really supposed to have standing armies. They wanted people to come to arms when the call arose. The military is another issue however... the need to be ready for a call to arms to protect a free state is still as relevant today as ever.

    In 1787 the word "regulated" as used in the 2nd Amendment, meant trained, not as in how we use the word "regulation" today. Try again.

    Not exactly. I ask the question because the president is the head of the executive branch of the federal government. As such, he is legally empowered to execute federal legislation. This means, of course, that the president may only issue orders to his subordinates in order to undertake activities that carry out federal legislation, not to further his own personal agenda.

    They can only be prised if they can be found. And if they are found and taken I can easily find more that aren't registered. This is somehow overlooked by people who think that banning a weapon by name will keep people from having them if they want.

    The founding fathers also wrote in their own essays and letters their intent behind the second amendment. Largely that "well regulated militia" means the people with their personal firearms, coming under the command of the United States government during a time of crisis and reasserting their power should the government take a turn towards being a regime.

    Child you can stop the insults here. We are not children and kicking in a door and shooting is far and away from logistics. It is impulse driven with instinct kicking in as you plan unfolds. These people are not in control and let emotions rule them. If it were logistics in a military sense points of egress would be in the plan.

    Children... LOL
