Trump calls for nationwide concealed carry

[Little-Acorn]

Sorry, but the President can only sigh a Bill once it passes Congress.

This "bill" passed Congress a long time ago.

In fact, it passed with more than a 2/3 majority of each house of Congress, and by 3/4 of the states. It's called the 2nd amendment.

And guess what - the President doesn't even need to sign it. Once the states ratify, it's law whether the Prez likes it or not... and he can't repeal it.

Contrary to some of the misuses of Executive Orders by liberals, This would be a perfectly legitimate use of an Executive Order: The President is merely doing his job, which is to issue orders that will carry out laws that are already on the books.

The 2nd amendment is already on the books. Has been for a long time, in fact. And an EO by a President declaring that people can carry concealed weapons nationwide, is merely implementing what has already been passed and enacted into law.

The right to regulate gun ownership within the confines of the 2nd Amendment, as determined by the Court, is a state's right.

Libs don't give a shit about state rights. You guys fool no one. Gay marriage and abortion got rammed down everyone's throats and there's nothing in the Constitution about them. The 2nd is in the Constitution so the inconsistency is all on you. If some state won't allow ccw permits then they are violating the 2nd, period.

It appears conservatives don't care about states rights.

 

[Yousaidwhat]

Hell yeah!! Tune in next week when the left threaten to move to Canada!

Canada don't want them and Mexico won't have them. Cuba maybe?

How about that socialist utopia Venezuela they use to all crow about? It's odd, they rarely mention it much lately

"How about that socialist utopia Venezuela they use to all crow about? It's odd, they rarely mention it much lately"

They ran out of toilet paper....how can anyone take a nation seriously when it can't even get with the programme on toilet paper

I hear that clam shells are now in vogue.

Sure to make the left's heads spin and explode...and will play well with the millions of gun owners...who vote

Republican presidential front runner Donald Trump — who said he has a concealed carry permit — called for the expansion of gun rights including making those permits applicable nationwide.

In a position paper published on his website, Trump called for the elimination of gun and magazine bans, labeling them a “failure.”

It’s not a departure from what he’s said on the trail this year, though it does mark a shift from a position he took in his 2000 book “The America We Deserve,” where Trump stated that he generally opposes gun control but that he supported a ban on assault weapons and a longer waiting period to get a gun.
“If we can do that for driving — which is a privilege, not a right — then surely we can do that for concealed carry, which is a right, not a privilege,” Trump touted.

Trump has apparently had a handgun permit for years; a 1987 Associated Press story said he had one at the time.

The real estate magnate called for expanding mental health treatment, saying that people with mental health issues who are violent must be off the street “before they can terrorize our communities.” Trump said the issue has been ignored.
“All of the tragic mass murders that occurred in the past several years have something in common – there were red flags that were ignored,” Trump said. “And why does this matter to law-abiding gun owners? Once again, because they get blamed by anti-gun politicians, gun control groups and the media for the acts of deranged madmen.”

That deafening roar is the sound of the owners of 300 million American firearms owners cheering. And by the way…they vote.

So, in other words, the Federal Government forcing their will on every state and city government.

I thought you Conservatives didn't like that sort of thing -- Common Core, Obamacare...??

Flip-flop..flip-flop...

No it didn't pass long ago.

Or threaten to kill Trump.

But but but it's the Trump supporters who are supposed to be violent or something

Self-hating White Leftists wear T-shirts with:

"Muslims unite against Trump"

More Leftist thugs.

Leftists, shut entire street in shocking display of "Democracy" and standing up for "Free Speech"....in attempt to prevent all those "violent" Trump supporters from attending a Trump rally.

(sigh)

How quickly they forget.

It's the states who ratified the 2nd amendment, declaring that no government can infringe the right of the people to keep and bear arms.

Congress can only propose amendments, remember?

The more the big-govt liberals lose the debates, the more they pretend they don't know about laws and how they are passed.

In the last few days, their fakery and pretension has risen to astounding heights. With no end in sight.

Just because it is called the Bill of Rights doesn't mean it was an actual Bill.

Who said, "Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited."?

Such an EO would be challenged as unconstitutional.

See what I mean? The liberals are saying the silliest, most irrelevant things they can, trying to pretend they have some point.

Who said, "Like most rights, the Second Amendment right is not unlimited."?

Whoever it was, it wasn't the 2nd amendment (or any other part of the Constitution) that said it. And they are the only ones that count.

Trump calls for nationwide concealed carry


The 2nd amendment is the Supreme Law of the Land. And any Federal or State laws that contradict it, are superseded by it.

The liberal fanatics just hate it when that happens.

If the President (the current one, next one, or any other) were to issue an Executive Order saying that all citizens could carry concealed weapons, this would be a perfectly legitimate use of an Executive Order: The President is merely doing his job, which is to issue orders that will carry out laws that are already on the books.

The 2nd amendment is already on the books. Has been for a long time, in fact. And an EO by a President declaring that people can carry concealed weapons nationwide, is merely implementing what has already been passed and enacted into law... which is exactly the correct use of an Executive Order.

You've maxed out your mental aptitude on this. Repeating the error doesn't make it come true.

Yeah whatever, it was just the Majority Opinion of the branch of government that interprets the Constitution and it's Amendments.

This legislation would face a serious uphill battle in Congress. Be that as it may, I would support such legislation.

We have a clear example of it here.

Actually the 2nd forbade all governments in the U.S. from infringing the RKBA, even before the 14th came along.

But the 14th didn't hurt it any.

Actually it didn't. The bill of rights didn't apply to the States until the 14th
