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.

Obama is a failure as an American leader. He will soon be powerless… American individuals are stronger and more United then Muslims would think..
Two real life idiots.
I am an American….. 5 generations of my ancestors were born and raised here. Some were natives…. Freedom of speech is my RIGHT…. If I want to have a pulled pork tailgate outside a mosque during Ramadan while preaching the Gospel and waiving my flag……….. That’s my right to do so………….. Obama, CAIR, INSA, and the Muslim brotherhood are all part of an ISLAMIC plot to change this country to an Islamic country.
( IT CAN’T HAPPEN HERE )
Americans especially have that “it can’t happen here” attitude. But yet it is happening right in front of us. And still half the people refuse to see it…. In Sweden, France, Germany, Australia, all these countries took in refugees and now are being terrorized by them, yet Americans still believe “it can’t happen here”. Our President makes deals behind closed doors with know terrorist funding groups yet ” it can’t happen here ” our government threatens our citizens with prosecution for speaking out about Islam yet ” it can’t happen here”. 14 people are killed by terrorist when the neighbors knew something was up ahead of time but to afraid of being persecuted for bigotry to say anything yet “it can’t happen here”. Social media sites allow ISIS to use its sites to recruit new members and no one even ask why… yet ” it can’t happen here”
You want my guns? Then get rid of your armed security! You won’t need them! What are you scared of??
Everything……
There need be no war…we just say no…
How do you figure that a hundred million armed citizens are more than 300 million armed Chinese soldiers ?
It’s obvious he wants unrest. That has been his goal from the start. Apparently more than half of Americans want it also or they wouldn’t have been so ignorant as to vote for it twice! This country is in serious trouble.
Couldn’t of said it better David you hit it perfect.
We need another civil war to clean out that White House
