from my understanding, a president, via EO could ban import of any ammo/gun parts.  So he could ban ANY gun/ammo imports.

All that'll do is make a booming domestic gun industry.  MORE US JOBS!

It'll hurt those used to getting cheap milsurp ammo though.

Now you're for liberal protectionism too?

Do you have a secret Obama shrine in the closet or something?

But once an EO crosses over into the realm of making law then that's not constitutional.

And you think that makes any difference ...?   :rolleyes:

After talking to a former State Rep. about EOs, she said that an unwritten rule of Presidents was not reverse or nulify a former Presidencial EOs and couldn't recall if any President reversing or nulifiying a former Presidents EO. 

If anyone has info on to the contray, please speak up.

It is much more powerful to seek Truth for one's self.  Seeing and hearing that others seem to have found it can be a motivation.  With me, I was drawn because of much error and bad judgment on my part. Confronting one's own errors and bad judgment is a very life altering situation.  Confronting the errors and bad judgment of others is usually hypocrisy.

Says who?

That same EO could say the sporting purposes clause applies to domestically-manufactured firearms.

Obama is already on record for wanting AK-47s off the streets. 

To him, the 2nd Amendment is all about hunting. That's it.   =|

Precedent is irrelevant.  Previous Presidents weren't The One.

Obama had best worry about gangsta control, not gun control.  He can start in Chicago for his test program; plenty to work with there.  Then he can work his magic in all the other Democrat-controlled cities.

I sit reading about What Obama Might Do.  He ain't gonna do anything we don't really want him to.

you know that, I know that, the GOP knows that: but does that mean Obama and the Democrats really give a damn and won't try it?

Agreed.....with the respect that the Dems have shown the Constitution before, I have no doubt that they'll push it to the wall....and then break down the wall by appointing SCOTUS justices that will vote their way....

The power to make laws is vested in the Congress not the executive.

It still won't stop either from attempting to devise a way to neuter Heller.
