As I mentioned, the President is supposed to use Executive Orders to implement something passed by Congress.
Recall that everything in the Constitution itself, HAS been passed by Congress (a 2/3 majority of each house, or better). Also ratified by 3/4 of the states, or better. That goes for the body of the Constitution itself, as well as every amendment it has so far.
Let's see. The 2nd amendment was passed by 2/3 of each house of Congress, and then ratified by 3/4 of the states. Just as the rest of the Bill of Rights was.
And the second said that for certain reasons, the people's right to own and carry guns can't be restricted or taken away.
Would there be anything illegal in the President issuing an Executive Order declaring that all Federal so-called "gun control" laws are hereby struck down and invalidated?
He would be doing nothing more than implementing what has already been passed by Congress. Isn't this exactly what Executive Orders are supposed to do?
What, exactly, would be illegal about the President issuing that particular Executive Order?
The Second Amendment proscription of "infringement" does not preclude "regulation". Thanks to the NRA and the Supreme Court, gun owners will soon find themselves the more "well regulated".
but we the people who are armed shall never allow ourselves to be registered our confiscated. no matter what the dolts in dc think. all they will want to happen is to cause a war, one they shall lose.
not many politicians actually support and defend the Constitution of the USA, really only the military takes that oath seriously, that is why they cant stand politicians.
Why do you keep coming up with these bald lies, Herr Goebbels?
Look at your own State of California: Can you buy any handgun you want?
