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.

Way to go Mr. President.
They have been saying that for 8 years.
He’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing. He acts like he likes the Muslims but truly hates them. The plan is to have his radical Muslims come to the US and destroy it so NATO and Russia can wipe them off the face of the earth.Population control and resources drive the rich and greedy. Wake up people don’t trust any government! Don’t give up your rights.The media is all owned by one man ! Rothschild look it up.
Some folks would not get it if it smacked them in the face. But one day they will and its to late. They ought to see it with taxes but oh I forget if you to lazy to work then you don’t contribute taxes you just suck me and every other working person dry so its hard for you to be upset about it.Just like guns, when your daddy government gives you everything of course you will be against guns but remember there is strings attached and one day you will be so deep in slavery it ain’t funny. But you are 3 quarters way there now.
I have great concern about what he will try to do during his last year !!!
