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.

How has this guy not got impeached by now?
I’m not proud of the fact I voted for Obama, but it was either him or Mitt Romney…and I forsaw women’s rights potentially being thrown out the window if he was in office. We were screwed either way when it came to that election.
Back to the matter at hand…I think that a civil war is very possible if these gun – grabbers try to force their views and policy on the whole nation. I don’t like the idea, but it is possible. I will NOT give up my guns. I’d sooner live as a renegade than put my personal safety and the safety of my household in the hands of the government. Another thing, if I’m not mistaken, when people join the military they take on an oath to protect the constitution and to follow the legal orders of the commander in chief. I have a hard time believing that our soldiers would blindly follow orders that would go against that oath and fire upon the citizens they’re supposed to be fighting for. Also, another thing to think about: the majority of our military personnel are tech support and logistics…not infantry. So, if all the people who owned guns were to revolt, god help us…the people would outnumber the military, even if they’re better equipped.
I didn’t know that Obama and Bloomberg were lovers!!
He is the american hitler
Americans will take back our country from this corrupt dictator and Congress. Our forefathers did it before and we will do it again. If Obama wants civil war, he will get it no doubt. The American People have spoken.
