Obama to Meet with Sheriffs and Police Chiefs to Talk Gun Control (UPDATED)
FROM CNN:

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden will meet with police chiefs and sheriffs from major cities about gun violence on Monday, a White House official said.

The president is holding the private event one day before launching his push for immigration reform, demonstrating the administration’s plan to press multiple policy goals simultaneously.


After weeks of meetings with various stakeholders in the gun control debate, Obama and Biden announced multiple legislative proposals aimed at curbing gun violence and 23 executive actions on guns and related mental health issues the president can take without congressional approval.

From The Washington Post:

President Barack Obama will meet with police chiefs from three communities that have experienced mass shootings, part of his administration’s push to address gun violence.

Obama is drawing attention to the worst shootings of 2012, inviting the police chiefs from: Aurora, Colo., where 12 were killed in July; Oak Creek, Wis., where six died in a Sikh temple assault: and Newtown, Conn., scene of the most recent mass tragedy that left 20 first-graders dead.

A White House official says representatives from the Major Cities Chiefs Association and the Major County Sheriffs Association will also participate in Monday’s White House meeting.

President Obama will seek to build support for his gun control plan Monday by meeting with local law enforcement officials -- including those from three cities that have seen mass killings over the past year.

The chiefs of Newtown, Conn., Aurora, Colo., and Oak Creek, Wisc., will meet with Obama and Vice President Biden at the White House, according to an addition to the White House schedule.

MCC was formed in the late 1960s to provide a forum for executives to share ideas, experiences and strategies for addressing the challenges of policing large urban communities. While the forum remains a primary purpose, as MCC has grown its purpose has expanded to include:
To influence national public policy on law enforcement matters
To enhance the development of current and future leaders

We all know how this is going to go down, right?

Obama has a nice chat with "supportive" sheriffs. Lots of photos and press. A PR stunt.

The media will give the American people the impression that sheriffs SUPPORT gun control and that the "few" who don't are "rogues".

Next thing you know, the 2nd Amendment-supporting sheriffs are made out to be "warlords" and "terrorists".

FUCK THAT!

Obama is going with "sympathy" to get the media (and thus the sheeple) on board.

He chose chiefs from "mass shooting" towns.

LOL! The REAL SHOOTING TOWNS are the ones with the strictest gun control laws like Chicago.

But NO. Obama wants to get the sympathy vote.

I think these cops are already in Obama's pocket.

I think this will be a PR stunt to get the American people to believe that local law enforcement agencies across the country are "on board" with Obama's gun control scheme.

That way, the sheriffs and municipal cops who oppose Obama's scheme will look like "fringe elements" which will justify them being TAKEN OUT.

I met one, here outside Wash DC who was running for Sheriff, and I asked him right off what he thought of Sheriff Arpiao, and he answered: "I think he needs to watch himself........"
He put his hand out to shake, and I refused, so I'm sure he thought I was "racist".
I'm also sure he'll be at the wh.

You can bet your ass he wont talk to anyone that doesn't want to take away our guns. I'm sure he cherry picked the sheriffs to get the radical gun grabbers.I'd like to see his reaction if one of them told him they would refuse to enforce any gun grabber law. How about we send him one from a state that promises to prosecute anyone trying to take guns?

 Quoting: Dr.Ricks


They may push it through. But will the people push back?

Remember that "extremists" who don't comply may be dealt with like "terrorists" and "warlords".

My prediction (for what it's worth):

The media will stop using words like "militia" and "2nd Amendment supporter" and start using terms like "warlords" and "extremists". It's already happening to some degree.

This meeting with police chiefs and sheriffs is an attempt to marginalize and demonize local law enforcement agencies that are reluctant to comply.

The rest of his agenda requires congressional action. I doubt he will find the support there that he needs to get his radical agenda passed. He may be able to make his executive orders stick, but he wont get the rest of the program.

Here's what I see happening.

This whole gun grab is "for the children's protection"...right?

I believe they will come down with a declaration that if you have a gun in your home AND you have children, that it's a danger to your children.

Therefore they will "request" that people with children turn in their guns "for the safety of the children".

If those people refuse...then the CPS will be called and their children will be taken away from them because of the "danger" caused by the gun in the home.

So it will basically be "your gun or your kids".

That will be the start.
