Obama Administration To Bypass Congress In Attempt To Make Buying Guns Harder

(Before It's News)

In the wake of the recent mass shootings, the White House is taking full advantage of these tragedies in an attempt to enact stricter gun control laws. In a session with the press, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney indicated that the Obama administration would use their power to push for gun control. He accused Congress members of failing to enact stronger gun control laws and told the press that the Obama administration would likely take action without congressional approval.

White House Threat to Congress… DOJ will make it harder to buy a gun until Congress passes gun laws

Carney said there’s a “reluctance” by Congress to pass stronger bans and then told the press that President Obama “does support renewing the assault weapons ban.”

Carney went on to say that Eric Holder’s Department of Justice, you know the guy who said he wanted to brainwash the public into hating guns, would use their power to make it more difficult for Americans to purchase guns. Carney told reporters that the Justice Department will “enhance security by making it harder for those who should not have these weapons to obtain them” by calling for more background checks.

In my opinion, this has nothing to do with “enhancing security.” If they wanted to enhance security, why don’t they talk about the hundreds of people who have been killed on the streets of Chicago this year because of gang violence? Where’s the media outrage over that? How are enhanced background checks going to solve that problem?

In my opinion this is just another attempt to push their anti-gun agenda. In fact, the current system already blocks criminals from purchasing guns. The current system requires that firearm dealers perform an automated F.B.I. background check on anyone who is trying to purchase a rifle, shotgun or handgun. It prohibits them from selling to anyone who is:

• A Convicted felon
• Under indictment for a felony charge
• A fugitives from justice
• A drug user
• Deemed to be mentally incompetent
• An illegal alien
• A Legal alien admitted under a non-immigrant visa
• Dishonorably discharged from the military
• A person who has renounced their American citizenship
• A person who has a domestic violence restraining order
• A person who has been convicted of domestic violence

So who exactly are they planning on adding to this list? It seems to me the current regulations have it pretty well covered!

We will likely see a major crack down on the 2nd Amendment

Calls for gun control have taken over the media airwaves. Over the last couple of weeks, anti-gun activists, politicians and even some so called “conservatives” have taken to the airwaves in order to push for stricter gun control measures.

Bill Kristol, the neoconservative founder and editor of the The Weekly Standard and a regular commentator on the Fox News Channel, told Fox News:
