Re: Obama to Meet with Sheriffs and Police Chiefs to Talk Gun Control (UPDATED)
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.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 33165537


That's a low blow.

However, it doesn't seem to be the most rational thing to do on their part.

If they are trying to minimize gunowner threat, then they would not want to single out family men and women (who have more to lose and are thus less likely to act against the government) and leave people without kids (who have less to lose by acting against the government) with their guns.

I don't know. The levels of paranoia run deep and in all directions. It's hard to keep up with a government as corrupt as ours...

Re: 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.

From USA Today:

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.

(from their website)

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
To encourage and sponsor research

Re: Obama to Meet with Sheriffs and Police Chiefs to Talk Gun Control (UPDATED)
I'm not too sure they are going to do too much gun control. They certainly will meet resistance in the congress, especially the house. I think you will see a reduction in magazine size, and maybe restrictions on gun production. It will be tough to go after already purchased guns. Local cops won't want the hazard, thus the reason many sherriffs are saying no. so what then Armed troops? Then it takes one bullet fired to start a war between the government and the population.

I think the end goal is the mental health angle. It pops up everywhere. More then likely they will start with attaching medical records to background checks. We will probably have to have mental health screenings to purchase a gun, and possible periodic evaluations to purchase a gun. Of course who is left to decide the mental health of a person? Certainly a panel of doctors or something. At any rate, they don't have to ban the guns, just ban the crazies, well at least those deemed crazy, from owning them. Long term, they can use these mental health screenings to send those undesirables away to FEMA Camps.

In short, they will use the term "Mental health" to restrict ownership to those who tow the line as far as the government concerned. The "mentally ill" will be much like the jews of Nazi Germany.

Thread: Take away our guns...but the police do not have to protect us as has been proven in case after case in the courts

it seems the court and many police forces do not think their officers need to actually protect us the citizens.
so PROTECT and SERVE does not mean protect US the ones ....well, they should be protecting!

This meeting is only about one thing and one thing only. This is damage control pure and simple. Sheriffs all over the country are openly standing up to tell Obama a loud and clear "NO" when it comes to unconstitutional gun rights infringement edicts and that is making the news. Obama is only bringing in the faithful for a photo op to fool the sheep and the useful idiots.

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!

obozo will try using his " Martial law " threat or cutting federal funding to the sheriffs department to try and get his way.

The sheriffs just tell obozo to piss off and shove his gun control BS up his ass.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6235972


He is trying to create a situation in which he can justify Marital Law, does no one see this?? Once that is done, then they can shut down food shipments, possibly shut down power grids and let things fall apart all of its own accord. By the time everything is over, people will be beggin Obama to take their guns and turn the power and food back on and they will be good little boys and girls.

This has nothing to do with saving lives and everything to do with controlling lives.

The real question people have to ask themselves is whether or not they will comply.

I won't comply.
 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.
