Eeehhh...it would have to be the GOP Congress who takes them. Seriously. Presidents do not create laws.
As for the speech, it clearly portrayed him as a Christian person, and he also did not push for any particular solution for the problem, he only said we need find a solution, and I don't think anyone can disagree with that.
Presidents do have considerable power though. The president's power is derived through the bureaucracy, and he can have the BAFTE create new rules that ban or restrict semi-autos without Congress. Of course, then Congress can overturn that law if they want to, or defund the agency if Obama doesn't comply
Feinstein beat them all to the punch with her announcement today.
The Dems are running this one.
It would have to be voted through the GOP Congress. How hard it that to undertand? Obama does not create laws, Feinstain does not create laws, the Congress creates laws.
This may be news to you, but it is the way it has always worked.
The title to this thread should read "Obama and bozo liberals want to create a larger black market for guns"...
You're pretty ****ing ignorant to reality if you think making guns illegal will make them go away. If anything, they'll make it easier to get a gun...just look at how it is with drugs.

No, he cannot have BATFTA create new laws with the flip of his pen.

It's just a GOP House, the entire Congress is not GOP.

Incredible, isn't it! The bodies of the children are not even laid to rest yet and the gun lovers are complaining that they may have new gun regulations!

DHS could act in the name of national security.
