    Just out of curiosity, how many criminals have been caught trying to buy a gun the legal way? And I mean criminals that have been in shootings, wanted, or have a proven record that shows they are capable of such mass shootings. I mean wouldn't they belong on the dumbest criminal videos. And if the stat is low, then how will this effect anybody other than the law abiding citizens?

    He wants to classify you as an FFL if you sell a couple of guns. It's a backhanded way to make you do background checks.

    thats right. Its an executive action on National Gun Registration. Very simple. The fee to become an FFL will become a tax. The tax will be used to fund regulation.

    Well they first have to get they're supporters to be ok with banning guns all together. So this is just one step closer. If another one of satans servants wins the election again, I'm sure it will be done then. If there is indeed another election.

    I can put money on the fact that his supporters would sign off on a complete gun ban in an instant.
    But you are right, its incremental. One step at a time.

    No, these guys don't stop at getting on thing. They don't put this much work into something to stop at one little victory.
    Our generation, may very well be one of the last to enjoy our 2A rights.

    Our numbers are strong. Dont let them fool you into thinking your a minority. Support RKBA organizations and candidates. Yes our rights are always under attack and we must defend them. The anti gun lobby is not as strong as you think though. Thats why they have to resort to desperate...yes desperate attempts like this the push unlawful acts. Its important that RKBA advocates to not become complacent or apathetic. It wasnt that long ago that getting a CCW license was a major major hassle and many were denied. They also put limitations on everything from flash hiders to rifle stocks.

    This Executive action illegal background check nonsense is just them trying to trick the public into a National Registry. If they cared one bit about accidental gun deaths they would promote firearms education and safety to the youth like we had in the past. Instead kids are shamed or kicked out of school for just talking about guns.

    More and more people are buying guns. More and more are carrying guns. Be it whites, blacks, men, women, straight, gays etc. etc. Its a full blown movement like we have never seen.

    Keep fighting. Its a little tricky when your new to the topic but once your in it for a while you can see through all the antis tricks and propaganda. Find a copy of the FULL 1994 brady bill. It will tell you exactly what they want and where they want to take it.

    I do fight and donate and spread the word as much as possible.
    But its a losing battle. The left has the media and is pushing the narrative.

    The overwhelming majority of people do not trust the media anymore.

    Dont be a defeatist. Trust me things are a lot better now than they used to be. The 80s and 90s were dark days for RKBA folks. Gun ownership in general was not nearly as accepted and concealed carry.... forget it. The right didnt even like to talk about it. You have to keep fighting though. Dont give up because Obama decided to do something illegal.

    We're in better shape now than we have ever been.

    The entire country is tired of liberal BS, including gun ownership.

    Exactly.

    It just shows how truly desperate the anti-gun crowd is.

    Bloomberg can't make a dent with his billions. Obama can't get any support.
