This is about what I expected, and I don't find very much to either disagree with or be concerned about. These provisions viewed as a whole may help prevent some of these incidents. And O has punted the heavy lifting to Congress, as he should.

Another example of leading by pontificating vague ideas, with children around.
Nice staging.

more red tape for us who didn't commit the crime, just one more step towards confiscation and dictatorship

I'm not taking sides, but he said exactly what is said by pro-choice proponents at anything that could limit abortion of any type. To one that is passionate about any issue any mandate is seen leading to more mandates.
Again, not taking sides in gun-control or abortion. Just making an observation.

All the Pres has to do is just get everybody to promise to only load 25 into their 30 and greater magazines.
OK, if you press, we could make it against the law.

Here is the camels nose under the tent:
2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.
This can easily morph into your private medical information being used in a background check. Any soldier who has suffered from PTSD, anyone who has been treated for depression, anyone who has been counseled for any mental issue no matter how small could be banned from owning a firearm. This could gut HIPPA.

I didnt see any additional hoops involved in obtaining a gun on the list. My guess is you won't even notice any of these measures. Only congress can create "more hoops."

Just another attempt to ruin the economy so he can take control through handouts.
Once the gun-bubble bursts, watch out for hyperinflation!

Glad to known gun control is intimately related to "handouts". Would never have thought to make that correlation. Learn something new every day.

There are, of course, many ways to look at this.
In the end, this is much ado about nothing. If this was truly his idea of an "executive order", he just basically drove in circles to say he went so far on the odometer. He accomplished absolutely nothing substantial. To have an executive order that "my guys must get with your guys and discuss the influence of..." is pretty lame.
So in my world, this is much less than a full-on assault on the Constitution. It's actually taking credit for doing something that will accomplish absolutely nada. For the first time in his tyrannical regime, His Majesty flinched. And I'm grateful.

People don't seem to understand what executive orders are. They are almost by definition, limited. The president can't make new laws guys, only enforce or direct enforcement of existing ones.
