DCClothesline- Now governors are abusing executive orders to trample on the 2nd Amendment as well.
With strong resistance in Congress to gun control measures, Obama has taken to working outside his constitutional authority yet again.
But he, his pen and his phone, are not alone this time.
To bring teeth to his pending executive orders, President Obama is working to enlist the help of many of the state governors who he hopes will sign their own executive orders.
To that end, Gov. Dannel Malloy in Connecticut is taking the first plunge in this end run around that pesky Constitution and Bill of Rights. Of course, Connecticut, home to the Sandy Hook shootings, has already seen its gun rights eviscerated. MORE
I can’t wait for those 752 DHS employees that are on that list to turn in their weapons.
It’ll be interesting to see if Virginia’s gov, Terry McAwful, will try this. He’s dying to but smart enough to know the legislature would bounce his commie arse from here to Kingdom Come.
The late Sen. Ted Kennedy was on that watchlist also. I’m all in favor of having notorious drunken, unindicted manslaughterers kept away from firearms, pointing this fact out to NE liberals will cause severe cognitive dissonance– trust me on this I’ve got a bunch of Democrat relatives
Socialists and Traitors to the Constitution are coming out of the woodwork. No longer are they hiding in the smoke filled rooms.
obama’s transformation of the US continues toward ruin unabated by a do nothing progressive congress.
If they are on a terror watch list why the Hell are they here anyway? ‘If you join a terror group you signed your death warrant”~Ted Cruz
Fuck global warming – Obama is the real danger.
Along the sames lines.

No state Governor can strip an American citizen of their constitutional rights by mere decree, without cause. He does not have the authority to do what odinga can not do. This is not a states rights issue. He can not abridge an innocent persons federally guaranteed rights and equal protection under the law.
Arizona tried to enact and enforce their own immigration law and odinga and the courts said they COULD NOT because essentially immigration law and policy is a federal jurisdiction reserved for the Feds alone, unless otherwise agreed to.
The denial of constitutional rights requires cause and due process of law. To disbar someone from owning a firearm and exercising their federally guaranteed rights there must be sound cause like having been convicted of a crime in a court of law or a certified history and diagnosis of emotional/mental defect that rises to the level, determined by medical professionals in writing and documented.
Nobody can remove, deny, abridge, diminish anothers legal rights by merely guessing or supposing they “may” be disqualifable even though they have not in fact been officially disqualified in an acceptable manner.
That list is imaginary. Nobody has ever seen it. There is no criteria of how someone gets on it that is verifiable and public. The state of Connecticut can not use it as a sufficient cause to deny a person their legal rights. Flying is not a legally guaranteed federal constitutional right, using that fake list against a citizen to deny them flight on a private plane is one thing (debatable) but to remove ones explicit in-numerated constitutionally guaranteed rights is another.
In a lawless society anyone can do whatever he is big enough to do (that’s why it’s a lawless society). The governors can smell the fear and cowardice in their respective sheeple and know just how far to go before there’s a backlash.
What would it take for CA to have enough and hang Brown?
What would it take for NY to have enough and hang Cuomo?
They’ll walk into the ovens before they do that, and the governors know it.
Here’s Troy Gowdy making a DHS rep look really stupid on this subject.

What are the exact criteria to be placed on this watch list and who decides?
That watch list is soon becoming a tool of terror all on it’s own. he who controls the watch list controls a lot.
There is none. Your neighbor calls DHS and claims you have been sitting in your garage talking on your phone about hating moslimes and how you will get them… Of course no such thing ever occurred. Hes just mad because your dog shat on his lawn or you parked in front of his house one day and thats “his” spot.
And he says he thinks you like guns and maybe have some hidden in storage somewhere. You are on it.
Or, maybe the FBI agents assigned inside of google/facedick corporate headquarters have associated the “red flag” search terms with your IP address and ran all the names associated with your address. You are all on it.
Or maybe Amazon reported you as a Confederate Flag purchaser and an Ammo purchaser. You are DEFINITELY on it.
Guilty although never charged… dangerous times are ahead.
Thank You Mr. Gowdy, once again. I am not a lawyer and even I know that these filthy vermin can not do this, it is illegal. Our rights are not dispensed to us at the leisure of these piss bags. We are born with them and can not be taken away unless we do something that warrants us forfeiting them. and it is proven so.
The scumbags in Connecticut are liberal shit bags. They will not resist this rat Malloy. So the incrementalism may creep ahead. But it will meet a brick wall sooner rather then later. There will be many, many, more victims of terror attacks from the moslime dogs soon. I hope the victims are those deserving ones and are all registered demoncrats.
I lost all my guns in a boating accident. Eff ’em.
I’m sure Texas Governor Greg Abbott will be the first to sign on to this. Yeah. Right.
Watch the list expand to include every registered Republican…
I swear, if I hear that shit one more time I will shit twinkies. That horse is dead dead.
BB, that horse ain’t dead, not as long as you keep coming up with goodies like shitting twinkies. I’d pay to see that.
