With Kids as Human Shields, Obama Will Unveil Left's Long-Held Plan to Grab Guns

January 15, 2013

RUSH: The media are just salivating today. Politico, the Washington Post, the New York Times. Folks, they can barely keep their pants up, they are so excited. (interruption) Yeah. (sigh) They might not laugh at that, either. Yeah, some of them are wearing pants. They're all excited over Biden's proposals. Nineteen proposals to try to limit the availability of guns. Nineteen proposals to get around the Second Amendment. Many of these 19 proposals will come via executive order -- and if they do, they will be illegal.

Executive orders are not intended to be used this way.

Executive orders do not grant the president the power to break the law.

Executive orders do not grant the president the power to get around or violate the Constitution.

But there are 19 things that Biden is proposing, and the story on my birthday, on January 12th, from the Washington Post: "Sweeping New Gun Laws Proposed By Influential Liberal Think Tank." This is the Center for American Progress. I think it would be worthwhile to go through what their proposals are, because this is a think tank that has a lot of influence in the White House. Much of what this think tank proposes, this White House attempts to implement. So their ideas are probably going to be very close to Obama's eventual list of demands.

The most significant thing on the list here of gun reforms -- "sweeping new gun laws proposed by" the Center for American Progress -- is to back Dianne Feinstein's bill, which, among other things, is a new assault weapons ban. It's preposterous, as the NRA has pointed out in some of its statements. Feinstein's bill would basically outlaw the handguns that most Americans use today for self-defense, and semiautomatic guns with magazines that can hold more than ten rounds. Now, never mind that none of her or the Center for American Progress's proposals would have stopped the shooter in Newtown, Connecticut.

That's not the idea here.

Don't doubt me when I tell you that none of these proposals, and I'm sure none of Biden's 19, would have stopped that. I know that none of these proposals from the Center for American Progress would have stopped the shooter in Newtown, Connecticut. None of them would have. And Dianne Feinstein's bill would outlaw the handguns that most Americans use today for self-defense. She does not have the authority to do that.

This is not the way you amend the Constitution. If it were this easy... Do you realize how easy it would be for them to just pass a law eliminating free speech, which they've done! How do you think Obama was able to tell the Catholic Church that they have no religious freedom when it's guaranteed to them in the First Amendment? Obama, with an executive order, essentially granted amnesty to a million children of illegal immigrants. That's not what the executive order is for, but he used it that way.

He did it during the campaign. The Republicans didn't have the guts to oppose it, because the Republicans are convinced they lost the election because they oppose amnesty. They believe the notion that they don't like Hispanics, and that people think they don't like Hispanics. Hispanics, therefore, hate Republicans. So what the Republicans have to do is become more like Democrats in order to be liked by Hispanics and maybe ever get their votes.

So there is no opposition to what Obama is doing. You can't outlaw handguns with a piece of legislation! It's not that simple. The Constitution is not easy to change. But here's what the Washington Post said about the proposals from The Center for American Progress. "The Center for American Progress is recommending 13 new gun policies to the White House -- some of them executive actions that would not require the approval of Congress -- in what amounts to the progressive community’s wish list," a wet dream list.

Obama does not give a damn about dead kids, he cares about how he can use their dead bodies to push his agenda. Putting nut in insane asylums would cut down on this stuff, but some will slip through and they will still commit terrible acts. Nuts kill everyday. So control nuts, which the liberals do not want to do.

I do not read any words in our Constitution that say, "Nuts should not own guns". This was not an omission by The Founders. They wisely understood that limiting people's rights in this instance or that instance is a very slippery slope.

I saw a video a few weeks back of a blind man accurately and skillfully firing a gun. Some people would say that a blind man has no reason to own a gun and if he used it wrong, he could harm others. And yet this blind man has the right to own a gun. I support him in that right.

It feels to me like it is timely and fashionable to react and say, "Nuts shouldn't own guns."

The slope is helpfully greased by the gleeful Democrats who are counting on the public being pacified out of their irrational fear. The man with schizophrenia who can no longer own a gun in 2013 will only shake his head and think, "I could have warned you." Because very soon it could be the grandmother who was once diagnosed with postpartum depression in 1970 who no longer has the right to own a gun for self-protection. Both schizophrenia and postpartum depression could become hazardous conditions for the rights of Americans.

This protection of the Second Amendment was written into the Constitution because it is the government we are supposed to rightfully fear, not each other.

There was no reason to write anything in the constution about nuts, at the time of the writing crazy people were locked up, just like criminals.

Yes Palinista if we leave it up to the head docs today nobody can be qualified to own a gun--look at just the diagnosis of ADD and ADHD among the youth and then they are given psych meds and this automaticlly prevents and entire generation from getting guns for the fact that they took the crazy meds.

You cannot change what was, but you do need to address the issues of the mentally sick people that are a danger to other people today. And how to remove them from harming themselves and others.
