our military has taken a pledge to protect and defend this country and the constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. understand however that they are, by law and the constitution, from doing exactly what you suggest. they are also allowed by military law to disobey illegal orders, and going around and grabbing the legally owned firearms of US citizens on the orders of the president, except under the right legal conditions, would be an illegal order.
And if it the National guard cocking that M2, what then ?
Liberal=dim witted sycophantic type authoritarian, who's above average intelligence is a figment of their imagination, with such delusions of self grandeur only eclipsed by the dogmatic nature in which they have convinced themselves that they were born with the authority to tell everyone else how to live, eat, sleep, breathe and behave.
Assault Weapon=any firearm that is legal to own today, for which the liberal wants to make illegal tomorrow.
When has he said that he will sign an executive order banning assault weapons? +
Show me one link and sorry Stormfront or Breitfart doesn't count.
What do you think it means when he makes statements like "If congress won't act, I will" ? I think it's pretty clear what he's insinuating, and if he does, that's when the criminal will be impeached and removed from office, finally.

I wish.
Problem is, he's disobeyed the constitution countless times, has broken many international laws many times over, has failed to deliver on a single promise and yet the American people still have not become angry enough to do anything about it. They're all either too comfortable being asleep and taken care of or they're too afraid to speak out because others will ridicule them or call them extremists/terrorists.
If anything was going to happen, it would have years ago and would have happened under Bush. The fact that it didn't and it still isn't has made me lose all hope in the American public doing anything for themselves or others.

Everyone seems to think that the taking of firearms will be the straw that broke the camels back, but I don't see it that way. The media will find some way to twist it into a "proud American" thing the same way they did with the wars while the government threatens dissent, either by false fear or violence, leaving the tough gun owners handing away their freedoms.
Maybe everyone will think I'm being too cynical, and a few years ago I would probably agree, but I've been aware long enough to see the pattern. It's not going to change until it's too late and this country goes from day to night.
Do you support Obama signing an executive order to ban assault weapons, even though it means we will not have a say?
If not, will you protest the executive order in defense of your fellow American's right to have a fighting chance regardless of your stance?
I think this is an important question.
Thanks
What weapons do you need to have a "fighting chance", assault weapons may not be enough, may need some mortars, rocket launchers, 50 calibre machine guns, tanks, F15's thrown in there, wouldn't want to make it too easy on the government when they come for you.
Brazil proposed gun ban in 2005. Media reported 80% in favor. Ban was rejected by 65%.
Media does their best to sway public opinion instead of reporting it..thus they become a propaganda machine much like the US news media turned paropaganda machine for Obama.
The gun nuts would probably go ape-sh*t, but I'd personally have no problem with it, even though am otherwise fine with owning firearms. So why the heck does anyone need a flippin' assault rifle anyway, except to take out a crowd of people... you know, single-handedly stage an assault? Or has Bambi started wearing Kevlar these days?
This post shows the total ignorance of the subject and exactly how people's emotions are fueling this debate.
The AR-15 fires the .223 Remington cartridge. An example of a cartridge used for hunting would be a .30-06.
To those who vote no, you all have blood on your hands.
What if it was your child in Newtown?
No, the shooter has blood on his hands, his mother as well. My weapons are kept in a safe and are safe at all times. If the kid was seeing a shrink and the shrink didn't act upon this delusional kid, he has blood on his hands.
So all the victims of illegals as many as 12 a day, who owns that?
