Barack Obama is once again circumventing the legislative process in order to push his administration’s unpopular leftist agenda. First, it was illegal immigration, then transgender bathrooms. This time, it’s guns.
Earlier this year, the White House announced new policies for those receiving social security benefits in conjunction with the president’s January 5th executive order on gun ownership. When it was released, few seemed to notice that the order allowed the administration to withhold Second Amendment rights from those who collect social security.
The move makes little logical sense. Social Security beneficiaries have never proven themselves as particularly violent or incapable of gun ownership. Instead, it seems as if this is part of Obama’s larger plan to slowly and surreptitiously restrict gun ownership whenever and wherever possible.
The administration was likely hoping that this slow creep of new regulations would go unnoticed until it was too late to be repealed. Fortunately, the watchful eyes of conservative media caught them in the act.

Yes it does. They just don’t care.
He ALWAYS goes around Congress because he knows they will not pass those things..Executive Orders (how many?) is his way of governing. Do not remember when anybody appointed him KING OBAMA . Somebody needs to remove all pens from his presence….That is his choice of weapon to further destroy this nation. VOTE TRUMP/PENCE ode
Good luck with that…
Do you think anyone is going to follow an illegal executive order.
And I also want to say that an Executive Order is not a law. It is an office memo. It has no power although people think it can. Congress makes the laws, NOT the president.
Where is Congress????
—“Why should peoples 2nd Amendment Rights be taken away if someone is on SSA? “—They aren’t.—“Current law prohibits individuals from buying a gun if, because of a mental health issue, they are either a danger to themselves or others or are unable to manage their own affairs. “
NOPE.
Congress is the only one that can do this and they know better
