The ban will largely affect antiquated, World War II-era weapons that, while still deadly, rarely turn up at crime scenes, leaving some to question whether the new policy is much ado about nothing.

"Banning these rifles because of their use in quote-unquote crimes is like banning Model Ts because so many of them are being used as getaway cars in bank robberies," said Ed Woods, a 47-year-old from the Chico area of northern California.
Even though it accomplishes nothing they can say they did something and it makes the moonbat sheeple all warm and fuzzy inside because Barry did something.
Not really, it is just a way to act like they are moving forward on better gun control without being able to do much. If anything, it sounds more like a beginning campaign speech for the 2014 Congress election.
Of course they are coming. Desperados will do anything to keep retain their grip on power.

The Obama administration is also proposing to close a loophole that it says allows felons and other ineligible gun purchasers to skirt the law by registering certain guns to a corporation or trust.

Seems to me that rational people understand that feel good laws like this will only keep guns out of the hands of good people.
Just like Reefer Madness dumbdown the masses with total lies of government propaganda via the media and the public eats it up....
Our government is in fear of the people they took an oath to defend because people are waking up to their unconstitutional ways.
Truth & Americanism is on the rebound and they can't handle the truth... we have too many freedoms & they don't like it.If the Boston Tea Party participants and our Founding Fathers are viewed today as extremists then I am a extremist....
