Shooting in Connecticut

[GregWeld]

Gotta love those Texas dudes!! I like the way this guy thinks!!





The measures potentially implemented by executive action would be different than legislation regarding a possible assault weapons ban or a large magazine ban that may be introduced in Congress, officials said.
Conservatives have raised strong objections to the idea of any executive actions on the part of the White House, saying that the president's efforts constitute a violation of the Second Amendment.

Freshman Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Texas, has even threatened to introduce articles of impeachment.

"Any proposal to abuse executive power and infringe upon gun rights must be repelled with the stiffest legislative force possible,” he said in a statement. “Under no circumstances whatsoever may the government take any action that disarms any peaceable person — much less without due process through an executive declaration without a vote of Congress or a ruling of a court.”

Sheriff Mueller was interviewed on camera on Fox & Friends this morning. Sounds like this letter has gone viral.

The Sheriff has the authority over any Federal govt in his county... he can send them packing if he chooses.

This actually makes a lot of sense to me.... Obama telling people that added security probably isn't the right thing to do for schools -- while his kids are guarded to the hilt.... You can bet he feels perfectly safe because he's guarded 24/7 by armed guards.

It would be fair to say he may have a few more serious enemies more than the average citizen.

Here comes the executive order.

Nauseating.......

Obama Biden stimulus...........a plan that will benefit all the unemployed who while working began hoarding high capacity magazines since the Clinton ban and will now have a retirement plan funded by the tax free dollars of the criminal black-market buyers. Brilliant. You can also bet the Chinese are ramping up magazine production on popular model knock-off's.

Not to mention Fast and Furious... what about those gun regulations?

I'm seeing lots of articles from common folks and law enforcement who are against bans and new laws that restrict the law-abiding.

I'm not seeing any articles about citizens who are in support of executive orders, bans, having their rights taken away? I am only seeing democratic polititions demanding these things.
