Obama to use Terror Attack to Seize Guns

President Obama is not ruling out issuing more executive actions to curb certain types of gun sales, his top spokesman said Monday, even though he’s not aware of any additional steps the president can take under his current authority.

“The president has taken substantial executive actions using as much executive authority as he can,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said. “I’m not going to rule out additional steps … he’s not going to hesitate to act.”

After the bloody jihadist attack in an Orlando Sunday, Obama’s first comments were not to condemn Islamic terrorism but to put the blame on the availability of guns in America.

The president told the nation Sunday’s attack was a “further reminder of how easy it is for people to get their hands on a weapon that lets them shoot people in a school, or a house of worship, or a movie theater, or in a nightclub, and we have to decide if that’s the kind of country we want to be.”

He only wins if the voters allow him to win. We have to remain vigilant in not letting our Constitutional Rights be stripped away in the hysteria of emotionally charged events. We must remain calm and focus, waiting for November to cast our ballots for the only candidate that values our Constitution and sovereignty.

Happy 70th Birthday, Mr. Trump!

There is no reason for anyone to have military style automatic rifles. Shot guns, hand guns...sure. Good luck getting the guns already in the hands of those who should not have them.

False flag all the way... There either was more than one person helping this man kill others or it is a false flag...

The first thing they do is not let a good tragedy go to waste, second they go right for the guns and we all know criminals follow the law right? after all they are called criminals for following the law right? and third, they never condemn the ones who do it or why they do it...

I told you, every week or every other week you will see something like this, soon it will be aliens or something else, just to keep you scared... The likelihood of you being attack is non existent, but with the govt letting those type of people in out country, expect it to happen more often than not...

How many times have we heard this? In seven years Obama has not seized a single gun.

Florida is a concealed carry state, and well over 100 patrons willfully disarmed themselves and entered a gun free zone as posted in the front door. Defenseless and helpless, they all became victims, half of them losing their lives. Had many of them been carrying, the casualty count would have been a fraction of what it was, or more likely, a mass shooter would probably choose not to enter such a place at all.

Ban ownership of guns by Muslims, maybe even all illegal aliens. Why not?

Why is there no reason I shouldn't have one? If I have the money and jump through the necessary hoops, I can own anything made before 1986.

The democrats will eventually start seizing guns it is just a matter of time. They are putting everything in place to be able to seize. The only reason they have not during bamas term is they know the people in this country will not let it happen without a fight. One reason why they need to federalize the police and build up the police departments with the equipment needed to crush the citizens of this country who do not agree with the leftest point of view.

I don't think they have the courage to do it. Too many citizens that would take up arms against them

The exact reason to own firearms is to keep the government in check. It is not for hunting or for fishing. The purpose is to secure and guaranty your liberty.

11:14 a.m., Most AR and AK style rifles are SEMI-automatic...one trigger press equals one shot fired. Pay attention to 12:27 p.m. Fully automatic firearms produced after 1986 are only available to military, police and criminals. If you can find one made before 1986 and want to spend $20,000.00 or more, you are legally allowed to purchase it with a $200.00 tax stamp of course. Do your research before you speak.

As for me, I will legally buy whatever firearm I want. If they become illegal, I will buy whatever firearm I want for more money.

O'Malley is getting tables set up for gun turn ins after Obama's executive order on a total ban of possession of AR-15's

You're the moron if you can't answer my question. I don't need a reason to own an automatic weapon, it's one of my constitutional rights. If I have the money for one and go through the legal process for ownership that's reason enough.
