Calculated legacy move.
Biden sprays him with onion juice and viola!.....instant tears. Hillary has now jumped on the wagon because Bloomberg is in the harness. Giddyappp! The driver prays to be covered in carats....er.... carrots for her loyalty, she IS a Clinton after all. Meanwhile, the wheel continues to turn.[yawn]
Bottom line? This Executive Action does absolutely nothing....it's merely a faux fireworks display and final salute to his anemic base.
If you want real change, bulldoze the gang/crack houses, train new officers and increase police budgets, so that they can bring in more of these trained officers to the street to deal with gang culture. They know who these shit stains are and where they live. Time to take back the cities. Then, bring back state run institutions for the mentally impaired. Give doctors the ability to code a file of those deemed unstable, so that they cannot buy a weapon in the first place.
As is typical, the insane/ criminal base, perpetually sodomize those of us who are legal gun owners and who jump through the hoops and play by the rules. These gun tragedies are visited on innocent Americans by criminals, the criminally insane, or in new enlightened progressive age, the odd, assorted anarchists or homegrown/foreign jihadists. These people spend months and years planning out their attacks on soft targets that will inflict the most damage. That is THEIR legacy!!-----they want it to be so horriffic that they are remembered. Why doesn't those who enact these laws understand this? How almost tragically funny that, a Empirical politician is passing meaningless legislation for his legacy on one end while somewhere, the next asshole is mapping out their legacy at some mall.
You want change? Defend yourself against THOSE asshats with either your vote or your concealed weapon.
These mass casualties are an absolute tragedy. However, I find those who rage on about guns.....these politically based, overfed ne'er-do-wells, who bemoan gun violence, to be a joke. Meanwhile, out on America's highways.....drunk drivers kill more than those with a gun.
So.....I guess my view of this latest dog and pony show revolves somewhere around the collateral question of........"when do we start issuing four cylinder cars and nothing larger than shot bottles at liquor stores?"
