No matter what policies are put into place (short of complete confiscation) they are not going to stop gun violence in this country. You can have back rounds checks of all types, but those who want a gun can get a gun. All of Obama's E/O's are not going to stop this problem, it is nothing but political grandstanding.

I guarantee two things would slow the flow of guns into the black market. Mandatory insurance for every gun you own and fines for "lost" and "stolen" guns.
Every time Obama opens his mouth, he makes things worse. In my state, you try to buy a gun and wait for the BC. After three days, you have not heard back you can buy the gun. (before, the BCs were taking a few minutes, now many don't get back in the three days)
Then you take the CCW class and the BC for that. After 45 days, if it doesn't come back, you get the permit. ( before, they were taking a week, now many don't come back in time)
They had to put a time limit on it to keep a president from cutting off the funding and stopping all BCs.
So now, a few people who shouldn't will get a gun and a CCW.

Get this.... Government created a black market where one never existed before.
Get this again. There is a black market for our right. One we told government at the beginning, you will not tell us what arms we make, distribute, carry or keep, so that we may organize against you when you get to big for your britches.
Which means there was to never have to be a black market for illegal guns. Only government makes things illegal and we told government our arms were off limits to their scrutiny.

Ya sure. How does the "GUBMINT" find out who have weapons with no serial number? Door kickers nazi style?
Criminals file off serial numbers for a reason. Probably a third of all weapons have no serial number so there is nothing to track to fine.

That is just it. The government is not to have a say in who can keep and bear arms, unless they are behind bars incarcerated, or of coarse dead.
It does not say, the right of non-felons or the right of those previously incarcerated.
Define people, for us. I see no clause after shall not be infringed.
Dang people,! It is one sentence only the ignorant would be confused about.
