Joe Biden: White House Has Identified 19 Executive Actions Obama Can Take on Guns

WASHINGTON, DC – DECEMBER 19: U.S. President Barack Obama (R) announces the creation of an interagency task force for guns as Vice President Joseph Biden listens in the Brady Press Briefing Room at the White House on December 19, 2012 in Washington, DC. President Obama announced that he is making an administration-wide effort to solve gun violence and has tapped Vice President Joe Biden to lead an interagency task force in the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut.

Vice President Joe Biden on Monday told a group of sympathetic House Democrats that the White House has identified 19 executive actions President Barack Obama can take to unilaterally act on gun control, Politico reports.
Because the Obama administration understands that enacting sweeping gun control legislation through Congress would be difficult, it has placed an emphasis on the use of executive orders to get around Congress, the elected representatives of the American people, and strengthen gun regulations.
Among the executive actions Biden is believed to have recommended to Obama are tougher penalties for people who lie on background checks, elevating gun trafficking to a felony charge and ending limits that make it harder for the federal government to research gun violence. But remember, there are reportedly 19 of them that the White House will consider.

The president’s proposals are also expected to include steps for improving school safety and mental health care, as well as recommendations for addressing violence in entertainment and video games. Pro-gun rights groups, including the NRA, have long insisted that insufficient mental health care and violent images are more to blame for mass shootings than the availability of guns.
According to Politico, Rep. Jackie Speier (D-Calif.) said she told Biden the White House should do as much as it can without Congress.
“I urged him to do as much by executive order as possible,” she said. “Frankly, I don’t have a lot of confidence that this Congress is going to do anything significant.”
Despite the opposition from groups like the National Rifle Association and gun owners across then nation, Obama said he would “vigorously pursue” measures to tighten gun laws.
“My starting point is not to worry about the politics,” he said.
Obama held an unscheduled press conference on Monday and declared his support for a ban on semi-automatic rifles, universal background checks and a ban on high-capacity magazines.
White House officials believe moving swiftly on gun proposals at a national level, before the shock over the Newtown shooting fades, gives Obama the best chance to get his proposals through Congress. Several pro-gun rights lawmakers, including Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Republican Rep. Jack Kingston of Georgia, said in the days following the shooting that they were open to discussing possible control measures.
However, the assault weapons ban, which Obama has long supported, is expected to face the toughest road on Capitol Hill. Congress passed a 10-year ban on the high-grade military-style weapons in 1994, but supporters didn’t have the votes to renew it once it expired in 2004.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Friday predicted that a ban might win Senate approval but he doubted it could pass in the Republican-led House.

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:55pmExactly. More specifcally, ALL public officers and employees are TRUSTEES of this TRUST called the GOVERNMENT.
WE the PEOPLE are the GRANTORS and BENEFICIARIES of this Estate called the UNITED STATES.
The BILL of RIGHTS and the CONSTITUTION are for the TRUSTEES.
That is their “employee handbook” of rules and regulations that they are bound by.
It tells them they are not to Infringe on the rights of the Benheficiaries.
Under TRUST LAW.
A GRANTOR can FIRE ANY TRUSTEE at ANY TIME and REWRITE the RULES of the TRUST.
Under TRUST LAW. A TRUSTEE has NO DIRECT AUTHORITY over a Beneficiary unless….
another beneficiary has a claim of damage against that person.
That is why you could tell Curious George aka ODUMBO to go F#@k himself if he ordered you to dance, or move out of his way.
HE HAS NO DIRECT AUTHORITY OVER YOU !!!!
WE the PEOPLE are in CHARGE !!!!
THAT is why Our Founding Fathers gave us the Power to dissolve this “Government”, if need be.

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 9:43pmWhile I don’t believe this should be done by executive order, I’d certainly like to see some common agreement from both sides on a few things mentioned:
1. tougher penalties for people who lie on background checks, elevating gun trafficking to a felony charge
Nothing wrong with that.
2. end ending limits that make it harder for the federal government to research gun violence.
Not sure about this one … what limits are there that make it hard to research gun violence? What am I missing?
3. The president’s proposals are also expected to include steps for improving school safety and mental health care,
This seems OK to me … perhaps armed (and trained) custodial staff, or retired police officers? And if you have a mental health issue, I’m sorry, but you don’t need a gun, period. If you have a history of violence, or wife-beating, you don’t need a gun. If you are on anti-depressants, you don’t need a gun. All seems reasonable to me.
4. as well as recommendations for addressing violence in entertainment and video games.
This one is a bit harder for me to accept — I think violent games that are so realistic is crazy, but that’s a personal choice I have made. I’m not sure we want to ban them, although I have no problem with setting an age limit on them. The problem with that is, how do you fix stupid parents?

2. end ending limits that make it harder for the federal government to research gun violence.
I don’t have a problem with it from as innocuous as it sounds at 1st first glance. It confused me. What I think this means is that they did not want to government to fund research. It was probably found that most of the funded research was partisan & used to drive the news cycle.
It is probably like research on Climate Change. It is partisan. That person who got a D in science in college, Al Gore, funded people hew liked & defunded everybody else.
The threat of partisan research is serious. We would like to think we would never do anything as a society like taking calipers to measure a cranium, but I am not so sure.

“I am a liberal, add a license for all gun owners, and to get the license you must take a mental health check and a gun safety course. and close the gun show loophole and we will be in complete agreement!”
A license would be a bad thing — if the government has to give you a license, then it’s not a right any longer. Additionally, a license means a national database. That is the 1st step to a very bad place.
There’s already checks in place — if you’re a felon you cannot buy a gun. So, additionally, if you have a mental health problem, you should not be able to buy a gun, and if you have a history of violence, no gun. Those checks should be easily available. But, registration needs to stay with the local retailer where the gun was purchased and not in the files of the AFT to create a national database.
As to the gun show loophole, I’m a bit torn on this one — I want to be able to buy a used gun if I wish to, but at the same time, I understand that we don’t want crazed lunatics nor felons buying guns without checks. Not sure how to handle that one.

Wrong.

2010 Murders with guns: 11078
1992 Aggravated Assault with guns: 566800
2010 Aggravated Assault with guns: 138336

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 10:31pmOnce you study Law, You realize that the United States is a Corporation.
It is one of the lawyer’s secrets. That is why over 75% of Politicians are Lawyers.
Another one of their closest guarded secrets is that LAW and OUR Government is based on TRUST LAW, because it is a trust.
Your Name on your BC, DL, DEEDS, TITLES, ETC. is a Corporation. A legal Fiction.
YOU are the ADMISTRATOR of your Corp., NOT the JUDGE or ANY PUBLIC SERVANT aka TRUSTEE (including the president).
Under Presumption of Law, you are considered the trustee, unless you CLAIM YOUR RIGHTS aka reservation of rights. You put put the TRUSTEE and COURT on NOTICE that you are the EXECUTOR of that legal Fiction and you are appointing them TRUSTEE.
You can then ORDER them to absolve the charges unless…. they have a cause of action which is a Plaintiff or Claimant that has sustained injuries to their person or property, and/or there is a breach of Contract.
In addition to being Grantor/Executor/Beneficiary of your legal fiction, you are a beneficiary to the UNITED STATES (Estate)

Posted on January 15, 2013 at 12:55am@ENCIINOM — only 4 percent of gun crimes are committed by lawfully possessed guns.
Taking guns fm law abiding citizens will NOT reduce gun crime by any significant measure since 96 percent of gun crime is by UNlawfully possessed firearms.
Furthermore, taking away guns will do NOTHING to cure the evil lurking the the hearts of evil men who commit these crimes of opportunity and shock.

Posted on January 15, 2013 at 1:53amThe Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) 809[890].ART.90 (20), makes it clear that military personnel need to obey the “lawful command of his superior officer,” 891.ART.91 (2), the “lawful order of a warrant officer”, 892.ART.92 (1) the “lawful general order”, 892.ART.92 (2) “lawful order”. In each case, military personnel have an obligation and a duty to only obey Lawful orders and indeed have an obligation to disobey Unlawful orders, including orders by the president that do not comply with the UCMJ. The moral and legal obligation is to the U.S. Constitution and not to those who would issue unlawful orders, especially if those orders are in direct violation of the Constitution and the UCMJ.

Robbery is down 150 per 100,000 people, that is OVER half
Burglary is down 466.2 per 100,000 people
Essentially, crime has gone DOWN tremendously… Your argument is entirely invalid.

While the government certainly started the standoff there, it’s a bit of a stretch to say the government killed those children when, in fact, it was pretty obvious that someone inside the compound started that fire. Or, did you buy into that crazy flame-throwing tank theory?

“They are responsible for the Events that day.”
They are responsible for beginning the standoff. It was a lose-lose situation for Koresh and his followers. They were idiots to not surrender and then fight the system. The government didn’t set the fire, thus they are not responsible for those deaths.
Certainly the government can and does act on bad information, but if/when that happens, killing those on your side makes no sense.
“Also, I see that you are willing to comply with the Invisible Government a.k.a. the U.S. Corp.”
I am willing to follow laws and remain free from the striped sunshine. I believe I am more beneficial to getting things change while free from incarceration.

Had the “Agents” not stormed the “Compound” (I will call it The Branch Dividian’s Land -

The VIOLATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS !!!!!!
DO HAVE EVIDENCE THAT an AGENT didn’t start the fire somehow?
That a shot from the violators (ATF/Bankster agent )started the fire?
That an Intruder (ATF/Bankster agent) didn’t sneak in a window that YOU DIDN’T SEE (wow, imagine that) and start it?
That a shot from something an innocuous as a tear gas canister, caused the fire?

“Had the “Agents” not stormed the “Compound” (I will call it The Branch Dividian’s Land – I will call them the ‘FREE MEN ON THE FREE LAND’) I am relatively sure there would have been no fire, and therefore the subsequent deaths of 21 innocent children.”
Possible. But in that respect, you can also state that had Koresh surrendered and then fought within the legal system, I am quite sure there would have been no fire, and therefore the subsequent deaths of 21 innocent children.
“The VIOLATORS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATHS !!!!!!”
Or the person(s) who lit the match.
“DO HAVE EVIDENCE THAT an AGENT didn’t start the fire somehow? That a shot from the violators (ATF/Bankster agent )started the fire? That an Intruder (ATF/Bankster agent) didn’t sneak in a window that YOU DIDN’T SEE (wow, imagine that) and start it? That a shot from something an innocuous as a tear gas canister, caused the fire? ANY PROOF ?”
I believe you know one cannot prove someone didn’t do something in this case. I don’t have proof that an agent snuck in and started the fire anymore than I have proof that ET landed, put on a human mask, and then snuck in and started the fire. We know accelerant was used so it would burn faster. Logic says it was an ‘inside job’. I’m unsure the gov’t was correct in showing up in the 1st place, but as I said, fight within the system. The videos on this proved only that stupid, untrue accusations were flying around

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:33pmThere are about 200 million people that believe that our Rights are ours to keep. That is the meaning of “shall not infringe”. If the government wants to waste more time & money, their favorite hobbies, then so be it. A crossbow is just as deadly as any gun and arrows grow on trees. A crossbow is a silent killer. Now, how many people could one psyco kill with a weapon like that? No, we’ll keep our Rights. I think they know where to put the change.

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:44pmWith a good wood lathe and 2×4 from Home Depot or other wood products supplier you can make non detectable bolts for your crossbow.
Or maybe even create some sort of projectile that can be fired by blanks etc…

They all feel they are above the law, on both sides… we are the little people and they will do whatever they want…. Every single time obama gets up he’s gonna say he won the election SO that means people agree with him and he’s going to do “the people’s work”…. meanwhile the republicans have their heads up there rectums so deep they can watch their expensive dinners digest and turn into the crap they try to feed us….

1. Be sure Nancy Pelosi does not own any weapons
2. Be sure Harry Reid does not own any weapons
3. Be sure Joe Biden does not own any weapons
4. Be sure that any friends of acquaintances of Obama do not own any weapons (lest their children break into the gun cabinet and heavily embarrass the parents)
5. Do the first 4 and the rest of us will be automatically safer from those who lie about our rights but do the same thing themselves!

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:25pmSo the token old, white, Catholic Democrat ” has told a group of sympathetic House Democrats that the WHITE HOUSE has identified 19 executive actions ( what is an ” executive action ?” ) President Barack Obama can take to unilaterally act on gun control.” Now isn’t that just peachy that our Chicago radicals ( you, go, Valerie ! ) are checking their legal p’s and q’s !? So Alinskyesgue ! Using the system to ” fundamentally change ” the system ! Apparently, the Chicago Democrats are not just satisfied with destroying our economy . They also are trying to start civil disorder by inflaming the American people over this very basic Constitutional issue. Just another BIG change. Like gay marriage ! Our Chicago radicals are itching for a fight. Or are they Itching for a reason to declare Martial Law ?

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:24pmJoe Biden lacks the ability to identify a tactful response when in conversation out in public. I find it hard to believe he has the intelligence to “identify 19 executive actions” for King Bo. NOW someone may have given him a list of unconstitutional options available that the GOP will let slide so they can use them in the future. That I would believe, since the whole lot of them are lazy, crooked, and are only focused on self preservation.

Posted on January 14, 2013 at 8:59pmI agree with your sentiments, but that’s not what they’re going to do. At least not that way. What they’ll do is impose a huge tax on all firearms, if you don’t pay, they’ll take your paycheck, or lien your house. Those scary black guns will be reclassified as class 3, same as machine guns. Ammo & components will be taxed up to the moon. The EPA will declare lead bullets a hazardous material, which they’ll outlaw. See, they’ll use tactics that will be behind the scenes. There won’t be a singular event that would ignite the public. They won’t kick down any doors. We’ll all be waiting behind locked doors with our guns loaded, waiting for a battle that isn’t coming. They will use things that are hard to impossible for the average guy to fight against. All the while they will be deamonizing gun owners as domestic terrorists, & using DHA thugs to take down resisters in highly publicized “Ruby Ridge” type actions against carefully selected unsympathetic targets. The enemy is evil yes, but they are smart too.

============
A “huge” tax without Congress passing it first, is also unconstitutional. I personally think, through Obamacare, he will have Dept of Health scouring medical records, looking for anyone who has taken any psychotropic drugs, or mentioned the word “depression” to your doctor. It is all online now thanks to Obamacare. I think you are right about the EPA banning lead in federal hunting lands.

Oh I don’t expect the Right to not be UPSET about, and try to politically OPPOSE and/or UNDO, any executive order on gun control Obama issues (really, any executive order Obama issues PERIOD). My point was, and ONLY was, that the implication of the article in the statement “the use of executive orders to get around the elected representatives of the American people” that Obama isn’t ALSO an ‘elected representative of the American People’ is: (1) Laughable; (2) Factually Erroneous; and (3) An amusing insight into how the Right, or at least this little corner of it.
Also, on a different related point–you DO realize that executive orders are constrained by the administrative policy-making powers vested in the President by the Constitution and delegated pursuant to some law by Congress, right? That is, you are, in fact, aware that the President can’t just fiat ANY law he wants into existence unilaterally. So while Obama MAY have some executive authority vis-a-vis his administrative functions to tinker with penalties for violating, and administration of, existing gun control laws he almost certainly couldn’t just decide by himself tomorrow that he wanted semiautomatic firearms to be illegal–that’s something Congress would have to do. Likewise, a President could issue an order to prosecute violations of abortion regulations more vigorously–they could not, ceteris paribus, outlaw any legal abortion procedures by executive order.

If I remember you are gay. Have you heard of the Pink Pistols?
“The Pink Pistols are a gay gun rights organization in the United States and Canada. Their mottos are “Pick on someone your own caliber” and “Armed gays don’t get bashed.”"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_Pistols
As a gay person I would think that you would want to be safe. With demographics changing would you be safe from Muslims for example?
The Left always wants the U.S. to be look like Europe, because they are supposedly more culturally advanced. Well, Bruce Bauer writes about Europe extensively. Sometimes it seems that what happens there (like California) happens here. So why don;t you read what Mr. Bawer thinks about the changes in Europe. Mr. Bawer is gay, but I think he is more realistic about things than you are.

I know you PROBABLY meant “right” by the ‘R’ in parentheses next to Obama’s name, but it’s a HILARIOUS ambiguity, and it could have easily been avoided by EITHER (a) adding the extra four characters to spell out the word “Right”–are you on “pay-by-the-letter”?, or (b) Put a “(L) next to Joe Biden’s name so the parallelism made the meaning of the first usage (which, TYPICALLY, is a convention that denotes party affiliation) clear.
