The lamestream media told you:
Nothing, although Sarah Palin and the GOP are trying to decide what to do with her clothes.
The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:
Obama’s opening salvo in his war against gun rights has been officially posted on the president-elect’s site — http://change.gov/agenda/urbanpolicy/
The Tiahrt amendment, which prevents every local police and sheriff’s office from fishing through federal firearm records will be repealed. Currently, only BATFE is authorized to access the sensitive data, provides it to local LEOs as needed and only while conducting bona fide criminal investigations. NY mayor Bloomberg is instigating this, to get his hands on the data and advance his harassing lawsuits against the gun industry. The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts the next step will be complaints that most private gun ownership data is not in federal hands, and can’t be searched “to keep Americans safe.”
This line is too good not to quote: “Obama and Biden also favor commonsense (sic) measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn’t have them.” This includes something called, “making guns in this country childproof.” It’s not clear what that means, but respecting 2A rights, and making sure guns don’t work “for the children” are incompatible goals. The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts that police will be unilaterally exempt from dangerous inoperability schemes.
Private sales of firearms are on the list for suppression, using the deceptive “gun-show loophole” scheme. McCain’s widely supported but failed proposal called for cleverly closing gun shows completely. http://www.gunlaws.com/GunShows/index.htm The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts that any private transfer of a firearm will be wrapped into this package when it is announced.
The final posted plan for “respecting the Second Amendment” includes a new bill under the euphemism of a “permanent assault weapon ban,” for weapons that “belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets.” American marksmen who have memories remember that Clinton’s ban under this title banned guns by name, looks, cosmetic features and petty details. Most odious, sale of normal capacity magazines were outlawed, and only magazines with a limit of 10 rounds could be purchased, forcing prices to rise from about $15 each to more than $150. Although Obama worked to ban all semi-automatic firearms in Illinois, the Uninvited Ombudsman does not predict that this will happen on the first go around, since it might force people to take to the streets in protest.
Whether an attempt will be made to confiscate or outlaw existing unfavored firearms is unknown.
In other news, every proposal on Obama’s website is about doing more to you or “for” you, expanding government, spending on new projects and increasing existing ones, and applying social and legal pressure to force society to change.
