•Address Gun Violence in Cities: Obama and Biden would repeal the Tiahrt Amendment, which restricts the ability of local law enforcement to access important gun trace information, and give police officers across the nation the tools they need to solve gun crimes and fight the illegal arms trade. Obama and Biden also favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals. They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent.

This was on their website for about 6 weeks after he took office and he was catching so much shit about it that they removed it.

Odd that right before the election it is back live.

If you thought something seemed way off with all of the Buckyballs magnets ban BS, there were definite mentions that this type of "expanded power" by the CPSC could be used to target all types of unpopular items - guns among them. I seem to recall it mentioned as possibly a trial run to get all of the legalities out of the way and establish precedent on a seemingly trivial item.

this is exactly what I'm getting at. Its amazing how uniformed/blatantly ignorant the left is towards Gun Shows. EVERYONE still has to the proper background check paperwork. Really, the only advantage of a gun show over a gun store is a wider selection, at POSSIBLY slightly lower prices.

If re-elected, he gets at least one, likely two SCOTUS appointments.

This is where I'm at...the MOST important thing that this election will affect is the SCOTUS appointments.  If nothing else I hope that people vote Romney for that.

If this were a *lawful* administration, I would agree with you.

However, I'm afraid they would go around Congress with EOs and BATF rulings to further erode the status quo as it pertains to the 2A.

I'm not a lawyer so maybe I'm totally off base, but I clearly remember the predictable but fraudulent "study" commissioned by president G.H.W. Bush, and subsequent ban on the importation of "automated weapons" (his words-what a fucking tool) *just because*, and all of it done without consent of Congress IIRC.

Somebody correct me if I'm wrong please.

While this is a good little sound bite kind of argument, the two things are very different.  In addition to being reelected, Obama would need control of the house and senate.  I sure don't think he's going to get that with this election but who knows what will happen two years from now.  But, even if both go blue in a couple years, Obama would need a large number of Democrats to stop caring about their NRA rating.  I doubt that is going to happen either.

So, I think it's pretty unlikely that federal gun control legislation is coming in the near future.  I'm not so sure about what BHO might attempt through executive order abuse but, hopefully, he can't do too much damage that way.

Seriously - GTFO.

The fact he didn't try to take them during his first term, with a congress that would never have allowed it, means NOTHING.

Assuming he's elected, he won't have anything to lose. Re-enacting the assault-weapons ban has always been on his agenda. He's just been biding his time.

Pull your head out of the sand.

It's worse than that.  It isn't ignorance, its pure malice.


What they mean by "gun show loophole" is the ability for a private citizen to sell a gun to another private citizen without a background check.  In effect, they'd like to make it illegal to sell a gun without reporting the fact you've done so to the government.  

What closing the "gun show loophole" is really about is backdoor registration of firearms.  

And we all know what comes after registration.
