I have executive powers over guns...

So, according to the constitution, he's within his rights, as President, to do exactly this.
What's your objection? You don't like this part of the Constitution, so it should be disallowed so that you're able to keep your guns? Is that it? That's a pretty poor interpretation of the Constitution, Will.

well regulated militia :hatsoff:
A bunch of guys armed with guns is not a well regulated militia, it's a bunch of guys armed with guns.

Oh. So that's the only part of the constitution you're willing to talk about? All other parts are secondary to that?
No, it ain't.
It's the same sentence, so it means it can be separated rom the rest of the sentence
A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed
It means the people have the right to bear arms because a well regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state.
It means that without that "well regulated militia", there's no reason for the people to have "the right to bear arms".
What the founding fathers wanted was that the US people would have guns and would organised themselves into a well regulated militia so that, in case it became necessary, they woud be able to freem the country from tyranny. They wanted the citizens to look after each others, to make sure that their mentally ill neighbour won't be allowed to get a gun. Because this was how thing were in the XVIII century, neighboours were looking after each others. But things have changed, neighbours don't care for each others anymore.
What you guys should understand is that the James Madison wroted the Constitution in a time were things were very different from what they are now and that, if he was to write in 2013, he would surely write a quite different Constitution.

Ain't?
It is different. Whether you like it or not.
You're from another country. Just drop it.
Not long ago you posted an article about France. Why are you able to make comments about different countries, but people from other countries aren't allowed to comment on American politics?
Is it because you're completely incapable of defending any position you post, because they aren't your thoughts, but the regurgitated thoughts of people you like?
Yeah. That seems right.

I see your flaw, Dirk. You're using logic as the foundation for your argument. Next you'll probably try to use reasonableness and verifiable facts.

You never have a point.

Well, I made a point, you didn't respond. You look foolish.
I'm from a different country, that's right.
But I can read and understand what I am read. This is enough to have an opinion about the Bill or Rights, the same way that you can have an opinion about the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen

In a bell tower, watching you through cross hairs.
I can't say I understand how his Constitutional right as the President, allows him to right executive orders that clearly are an attempt to usurp the Amendments, but the fact is, this guy has an agenda, he's unable to see he's clearly violating the law, because his degree is in Constitutional law, so he feels he's able to finagle and manipulate it to his needs, but the fact is, gun sales, and ammo sales are skyrocketing, and proving him to be VERY, VERY wrong. I think a great man y people, and organizations will file suite, and as long as the next president isn't biden, it just might get undone. In fact, all a potential candidate has to do, is promise to undo his bullshit, and I'll vote for him. This fight is going to get ugly, not as many American's want this, as did the week after, and they haven't proved a semi automatic rifle was even used in this shooting. We had a gun show nearby this weekend, record attendance, and almost a complete sellout.
Even Executive orders are subject to review by The Supreme Court.
