Let’s be blunt: Barack Obama is a proven serial liar and has no qualms about twisting reality to suit his purpose. So whatever comes out of his mouth must be taken with a very heavy dose of sodium chloride followed by an alka seltzer chaser. Secondly, the executive branch of the federal government cannot make, or alter, federal law. And we don’t govern by the will of the people. We’re not a democracy where the tyranny of the majority usurps the rights of all of us. We have separation of powers for a reason: To keep abuses of power in check. Now we could argue whether or not the checks and balances in the current federal government are broken, but for now, let’s look at what Obama’s pen is attempting to created today on gun control:

In the days, weeks, and months to come, there will be a great deal of talk about the efficacy of the Duffer in Chief’s Constitutionally UNSOUND executive overreach of our 2nd Amendment rights. There will and should be considerable scrutiny of these executive orders – which you can find here. In the meantime, lets wipe away those crocodile tears and issue a few corrections regarding key points in Obama’s grandiose speech.

The Sandy Hook shooter had nothing to do with gun show loopholes or skipped background checks. Instead he stole his mother’s LEGALLY purchased guns, killed her and the teachers and children at Sandy Hook Elementary. Columbine was a straw purchase, and the Aurora shooter was a legal purchase. Oh wait, part of his new Executive Orders will include health professionals violating HIPPA and turning people in. THAT will work well won’t it? In fact, lets double the HIPPA violations by tying American’s health records to background checks. What could possibly go wrong?

Oh but lets not stop the Pres while he’s on a tearful roll right now. Nope – we’re going to invoke the terrorist attack at San Bernadino by citing the debunked No-Fly List idiocy. You know, the one that even folks over at Slate admit is more complicated than anyone realizes.

C’mon dude! Those terrorists weren’t on that list ever, and even Josh Earnest admitted the no-fly list wouldn’t have helped! But then, Obama really isn’t known for getting his facts straight is he?

HAHAHAHA! OUCH Let’s take a gander at the White House’s cute little fact gif.

Oh its for the children? Believe you me, I’m all about protecting our children. And there are a LOT more things they need to be protected from than those nasty ole guns. Think I’m wrong? Check out these facts from the CDC:

All suicides
Number of deaths: 41,149
Deaths per 100,000 population: 13.0
Cause of death rank: 10

Firearm suicides
Number of deaths: 21,175
Deaths per 100,000 population: 6.7

Or how about this?

43,000 people are injured in a television or furniture tip-over related incident each year. 59% were kids.#BanFurniture

What does the Pres think about these wonderful statistics from Chicago?

JAN. 1, 2016 – JAN. 4, 2016
29
shooting victims

JAN. 1, 2015 – DEC. 31, 2015
2,986
shooting victims

In the first FOUR days of this month there were 29 shooting victims in Chicago. In fact, when you read the linked article other uncomfortable facts come to light. In the last 30 days, 23 kids under the age of 18 were shot in Chicago. That does NOT include the 18 year olds. That’s more kids than Sandy Hook, but let’s not talk about gang violence and these kids being shot, noooo…. Can someone PLEASE tell me how any of the President’s bright shiny new Executive Orders are going to save the children and clean Chicago up? Bueller? Bueller?

We owe it to ourselves, to this great Republic, to our Founders, and to the Constitution itself to take a good hard in-depth look at what Obama is attempting to shove down our throats with his latest gun control push; and ask the following questions. Will these orders and actions supersede effective laws already on the books at the local, state, and national level? Do these orders and actions take away the rights and due process afforded to us by the greatest law of the land, our Constitution? Right now, the answer to those questions is yes and that worry the heck out of us all.
