The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - Obama Administration Finally Admits Desire to Reinstitute Assault Weapon Ban

Another term for Obama would be disastrous for this country, and not only for firearms rights. The administration has been careful to avoid most overt action in this area so far, except for the BATFE letter in the SW mandating reporting multiple long gun sales, and the current import ban on hundreds of thousands of M1As and M1 Carbines from South Korea. Not a gun ban, just an import ban. But who knows what he might undertake once freed from the worry about another election?

It would be interesting to outline the SCOTUS ages and likely retirements, with their "political" leanings. So far, BOs appointments of liberal judges were replacing previously liberal judges, and had less than catastrophic results for gun rights.
