Obama Announces New Executive Actions On Gun Background Checks

The government cant seem to make any progress on fixing the economy or protecting our interests overseas during the work week...
...but let the American public take a few days off during the holidays and the late night executive signatures start to fly like they are in a hurry to get something done by slipping things through with executive orders and silent legal maneuvering.
Say good bye to your freedoms America; it starts with trying to outlaw your 32 ounce sugary drinks because the government knows whats best for you and who knows where it goes from there.
...or maybe my foil hat is just clouding my opinions.

It wont be long and "You're crazy" will be enough to strip you of your rights...
..."regardless of whether these determinations are made by a state, local, federal or military court."

Article...

Maybe I just dont understand how the system works.

I feel this will change the way service member seek help for PTSD and other mental problems. They won't seek help I say.

Da. Looks like some are preparing to legitimize dear leader's EO end-runs. How bi-partisan of them. Ain't no votin' against the cyclic small percentage up for re-election each time gonna fix this. The disease is widespread.

Universal background checks is not the goal; universal denials is.

You got that one right. And with the government having access to all of your personal med history through the ACA (meds your taking, every physical exam, every blood test, etc.) I am sure something can be used to deny your permit to purchase a firearm. If they can't disarm us through proactive gun control legislation they will use the back door.

The government seems to enjoy forcing themselves in our "back doors". (I'm not sure if I should have put that in pink font or not)

Yup, the IRS will be looking for that 1934 Mercury dime I swallowed in 1961.

I agree. I'd add that universal registration then confiscation is the goal.
