As the Obama Administration prepares to tighten access to guns, the President met Wednesday with former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg to help complete the executive order that would expand background checks on gun sales while closing the “gun show loophole”.
Bloomberg is only one of many gun control advocates the president has met with in recent weeks. The order, which is currently caught in a web of legal and administrative questions is currently without a timeline.
However, even as he works to chip away at another constitutional right, a new survey is showing falling support for a ban on assault weapons, which both Obama and Bloomberg are currently advocating as a means to prevent gun-related deaths. Hillary Clinton also pushed for an assault ban during a campaign speech earlier this week.
In the wake of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in Connecticut, Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns group turned into Everytown for Gun Safety with the expectations of being able to stand against the NRA. The group spent millions, most of which came from Bloomberg’s own fortune, only to fall just short of their goals on several different occasions.

Because the problem with too many cowards with guns roaming the streets was evidenced by the Trayvon Martin murder by George Zimmerman. Trayvon Martin should not have had to pay for George Zimmerman carrying a gun because he is naturally weak and a bad fighter.
Trayvon Martin should not have had to pay for George Zimmerman being stupid.
Trayvon Martin should not have to pay for George Zimmerman being slow.
Trayvon Martin should not have had to pay for George Zimmerman not having anything better to do at night but to prowl his neighborhood at night with a concealed weapon.
Trayvon Martin should not have had to pay for George Zimmerman having a fantasy about wearing a cape and mask and being batman.
Trayvon Martins should not have had to pay for George Zimmerman being a fat cowardly incompetent slob with a gun.
No, he should not have had to pay with his life for George Zimmerman being a complete and utter loser.
He should not.
In my professional opinion.
I honestly don’t think it’ll ever happen but if it does… Marc, you’ll have to pick a side. I hope you don’t think the government will protect you or have your best interest in mind. They’ll strip you of your rights so you “need” them and do as they say.
I’ll be right beside you buddy
We the people are sleeping giant that Washington should not awaken
Part of his “reelection ” plan.
I hope he’s planning his funeral , he try’s taking our gun’s he’s going to have it !!
all gun control freaks must have all body guards removed and they must defend themseloves without arms.
his pen does not write LAW, executive orders are not laws that the people must follow, only congress and pass a law. it is time Oshitface learned the rules, no civil war is coming, I will not shoot my fellow Americans, I will however defend them against enemies as the oath I swore to is sacred.
Any order from the executive branch, is not law in peace time. Only under martial law can they be considered law and only until that martial law period is allowed by congress.
He was duly warned
