Executive Actions

Discussing this Executive Action on gun control, is this a shot across the bow on future actions to limit our Civil Rights? I know there has been work done by federal agencies that challenge our rights, as well as many elected officials and judicial staff, but is this the new way?

There already has been discussion on limiting the internet, talk radio, speaking at public events. Like many of the tactics being used against us, this gun action and mental health "reporting" is a means to remove the ability to exercise a civil right by certain people.

This can easily cross into other areas, where someone labeled as unstable not only has his/her right to own/ possess a firearm, but the right to free speech, the ability to vote, the ability to worship, the ability to assemble.

This last year of Zero is only laying the ground work for what he (and they) will be doing for decades to come. Zero will become very active in his work after he leaves office.

You know, what really bugs me is that none of the republican presidents (recent ones anyway) counter/repeal these oppressive executive actions with their own. The real test, in my eyes, of the next red POTUS will be if he/she undoes all the damage done by 'Bammer with their own phone and pen.

I've seen Obama's training schedule for '17. It's mostly centered around work with his driver; he's gonna leave his short game alone for a while.

Question

Out of curiosity does POTUS typically pick and place posts within the Military?

OMFG
That is in no way funny - AT ALL.

I hope the admins ban you from the site forever. That shit is worse than saying "bomb" on an airplane.

What kind of twisted mind even dreams up shit like that. You should be ashamed of yourself...
..Ashamed.



Jesus Christ on a wheat cracker... I am not going to be able to sleep for weeks after reading that shit.
It literally, sent a cold fucking chill down my spine.
You are dead to me.

Dude...

I just posted an apology for NOT using the term "person-the-fuck-up" and then you wheel out a zinger like this?

...I am NOT satisfied with your response. You are STILL dead to me.

Taft became Chief Justice after his term as President.

I am mentioning this possibility to everyone I encounter that thinks about sitting out the election. It elicits similar reactions along the lines of, "Holy shit! I never thought about that...."

Elections have consequences indeed. Who would she nominate?
