Obama’s Gun Ban List Is Out

Quote:

11/20/2012 Alan Korwin – Author Gun Laws Of America GunLaws.com

Here it is, folks, and it is bad news. The framework for legislation is always laid, and the Democrats have the votes to pass anything they want to impose upon us. They really do not believe you need anything more than a brick to defend your home and family. Look at the list and see how many you own. Remember, it is registration, then confiscation. It has happened in the UK, in Australia, in Europe, in China, and what they have found is that for some reason the criminals do not turn in their weapons, but will know that you did.

Remember, the first step in establishing a dictatorship is to disarm the citizens.

Gun-ban list proposed. Slipping below the radar (or under the short-term memory cap), the Democrats have already leaked a gun-ban list, even under the Bush administration when they knew full well it had no chance of passage (HR 1022, 110th Congress). It serves as a framework for the new list the Brady’s plan to introduce shortly. I have an outline of the Brady’s current plans and targets of opportunity. It’s horrific. They’re going after the courts, regulatory agencies, firearms dealers and statutes in an all out effort to restrict we the people. They’ve made little mention of criminals. Now more than ever, attention to the entire Bill of Rights is critical. Gun bans will impact our freedoms under search and seizure, due process, confiscated property, states’ rights, free speech, right to assemble and more, in addition to the Second Amendment. The Democrats current gun-ban-list proposal (final list will be worse):

Attorney General gets carte blanche to ban guns at will: Under the proposal, the U.S. Attorney General can add any “semiautomatic rifle or shotgun originally designed for military or law enforcement use, or a firearm based on the design of such a firearm, that is not particularly suitable for sporting purposes, as determined by the Attorney General.”

I think an exec directive telling ATF to simply reclassify things to an NFA list may be in the mix absent the legislative 'will', a term which I use in congressional context very loosely.

Do we know where this list actually came from? HR 1022, was created and squashed in the 110th Congress (2007-2008.) This list is nearly identical to that one. I don't see any Executive Branch references, or citations and haven't heard anything from the administration on the matter.

I don't think it's going to happen. IMO If the President really wanted these guns to be banned he would have tried to push for it early in his first term when he had a Democratic Senate and House majority.

I also think the Supreme Court has enough backbone to uphold citizen's individual rights.

Furthermore, we are about two heartbeats away from the SCOTUS being eager supporters of such a ban. Given some of Roberts' decisions, maybe only one heartbeat away.

Great point. If the President really wants to go that route now then we won't have to wait too long before we start seeing the signs.

They need to get the label right.

These are not "assault" weapons.
They are weapons designed for quashing rebellion on the part of our elected/appointed servants.

I grow tired of these servants (politicians/judges) constantly trying to rebel against their masters (the people).
The guns in private hands will not be given up peacefully; and the majority of trigger-pullers working for the government will not assist in confiscation.

Hopefully a demonstration of this reality will not be necessary.
Molon labe.

Oh. Well, that's different. :D:eek::mad::p
Look, I'm trying to stay out of this one, but that is just an amazing statement.
If that really is what these weapons are for, is there ANY hope "they" won't come them?
Quashing? Do you mean fomenting? Reminds me of The Princess Bride. ("I don't think that word means what you think it means.")

Insurgency/Counterinsurgency - such a fine line and the definitions depend on which side of the line your standing on.

Swwwwweeeet! They're going to let me keep my air rifle! :D

I'm going to get a couple more and equip them all with that cool dual trigger do-hickey, before it's banned. ;)

Errors is the list...

As a polite gesture, I will make the appropriate corrections to your gun ban list...

Great point - see bios for Jefferson, Adams, Hamilton, Madison, Washington, et al. Looks like 2nd Amendment rights are going down! Next- 1st Amendment. Oh wait, the press already capitulated :mad:

"...to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among men..."

Our nation has a charter for government powers.
Certain powers are delegated to offices which are temporarily occupied by some citizens.

Sometimes those who temporarily occupy an office attempt to give themselves powers beyond what were delegated.
This is a usurpation and they are in rebellion against the authority which delegated powers to their office.

The authority which delegated limited powers is clearly stated in the first three words of the charter.
"We the people."

MR2's & GratefulCitizen's comments are germaine to why I'm currently finding this book an interesting read. The description at the above Amazon link is pretty accurate, as it examines what were individual tipping points in the small towns up & down the colonies by so-called "normal" people, vs. the typical focus on more written-about personages (who were elites of the time) and only what was happening in Boston, NY, and Philly.

Don't think we've seen a local "Committee of Safety" in East Ottertail, MN publicly shame a Fed official & cutoff their comms with DC, or run them outta town in disgrace, yet. Much was organized (and tolerated) in small ways, locally, before the smoke flew during another attempted "assault weapons confiscation raid."

Remains to be seen if another (unlikely) AWB is a tipping point. Or is a simple extra-legal "rule making" by the ATF tolerable?

MOO, posts #13 and #14 exemplify the type of selective reading of America's past that is helping to enable the GOP's increasing political ineffectiveness and to sweep it into the dustbin of historical irrelevance.

First, a consideration of the entire Constitution of the United States within its historical context provides numerous opportunities to realize that the founders understood that the new nation would have its growing pains as different institutions and individuals at the federal and state level tested the limits of power and boundaries of authority when it came to the actual governance of the young republic. (Question: If the founders weren't aware that people would push the boundaries, then why did they provide for checks and balances, attempt to protect the federal government from the will of the people, and install mechanisms for changing the constitution? Oh, that's right. The Constitution meant exactly the same thing to everyone who read or heard about it, and all those who voted for its ratification did so for exactly the same reason, just as all those who opposed ratification conformed to the single shared meaning as soon as Rhode Island said "We're in!")

Second, Breen's account, although aimed at a general audience (sell, sell, sell!), is clearly meant to advance an ongoing historiographical debate over the nature/causes/point of no return of the American Revolution that has been going on for generations among specialists of that period. (The reference to "pamphlets" is directed at Bernard Bailyn's The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution [1967; enlarged edition, 1992].) While it is always nice to think that a book one is reading breathes fresh air into a vibrant chapter of America's past, a "bottom up" approach to that time period that de-emphasizes New England is not exactly new nor "typical.":rolleyes:
