I've already got mine, Barry.

Just so you know. And may I say, Barry - if this is true - that it's about frickin' time. We've been expecting you to pull this shite since the moment you were inaugurated. Probably should have done it while you still had some political capital to blow, though, doncha think?

Money quote...
The reforms, which are being crafted by the Department of Justice, come after a series of meetings with relevant stakeholders in the Second Amendment debate. But in a nod to the difficulties of getting legislation through a Republican-run House of Representatives, only executive orders or administrative actions -- and not an actual bill -- are expected to be handed to Congress.
I love the smell of napalm on representative republics in the morning!

I got mine too. They can try to take them, if they're feeling froggy...

"...a series of meetings with relevant stakeholders in the Second Amendment debate."

Funny. I seem to be a living human being, myself, but nobody invited me...

Surely that was just a mistake.

Ah, that's okay; I actually thought this was the money quote:

"Still, executive actions offer something that legislation doesn't: guaranteed results."

You know, it just might.

I wonder how they had meetings with over 300 million people?

Buck.

Well, Anon, I wonder how he managed to meet with me without my beiong there.

As for the quote...
"...only executive orders or administrative actions [...] are expected to be handed to Congress."

WTF? He's going to issue executive orders to Congress? That's getting pretty far over the top even for the usual run of DC scumsuckers.

Just another sign our handlers are getting nervous.

But you gotta figure O-man is going to play this now as he figures he has no chance of being re-elected, or not (if you get my drift).

Wonder if they grandfather...

Hmmm, but it just might not produce the "results" he's thinking of.

Read Between The Lines:

"I want to get re-elected in '12. It's even more important to me than my golf game.

I've avoided this whole 'gun' Third Rail as long as I could because my professional Democrat Party handlers tell me it's a non-starter, but I need to do something and I'd best do it now, so that the Blue Dogs have time to forget between now and Nov.'12.

Whatever I do needs to be minor enough that the Blue Dogs will forget between now and Nov.'12, because there are a lot more single-issue Pro-Gun voters than single-issue Anti-Gun voters...

Okay, what bone can I throw that cancerous Sarah bitch without ruining my chances for not needing to hire a moving company?"

Seriously, the simplistic Manichean viewpoint of my allies makes Mr. Tire Iron sad sometimes.

The only answer is Keep your Powder Dry. Might want to keep some, with applicable firearm, brass and bullets cached somewhere safe too.

As to these ever-so-important "stakeholder" meetings, I think the relevant word you guys are missing is, er, relevant.

I'm pretty sure these guys don't really consider our viewpoint all that terribly relevant. Doncha know.

But yeah, one result or another is pretty much guaranteed. One helluva lot more scofflaws, at a minimum. Any entity that wants to govern really should minimize the number of citizens it drives into that category.

Hmmm,
Now I guess I had best go stash a couple of my projectile director machines where they are not too blamed obvious.

I would gladly attribute but am unable to accurately do so .... assistance gladly accepted.]


They really don't understand do they?
They CANNOT win this one.
They are outnumbered even within their own "gang".

Freaking Idiots ...

IF ONLY ....
The only ones hurt in the coming fracas were the idiots that attempted to violate the natural human, inherent and unalienable, right to self defense and their fawning toadies.

One can only hope ....

stay safe,
