The fees introduced to pay for the registrations/permanent tracking would be so great that most politicians might see it's absurd. I don't see a Republican controlled congress with pro-gun Democrats passing a bill such as this to begin. Even then, I don't think they'll be approving the sky high fees citizens would have to pay in order for the registration debacle to be supported.

Newsflash from vp joe biden

Just heard Newt Gingrich speak on Greta, he states that a pres. can sign an eo but he himself cannot enforce it, has to be done by an agency, fbi/atf. Congress then has to approve funding and therein lies the rub, congress with holds funding. So then what... well "its them repubs" they want blood in the streets, blah blah blah and so it goes, but it's not my fault! Seems our current pres will not own anything, its delegate, delegate, bring me something to sign. Can't blame him for anything that fails that way I suppose. TL

Let's not have duplicative discussions. The executive order thread is here.
