"According to confidential sources"

"Forces linked with the administration"

"Pay $200 fine for each firearm"

Yeah. Yeah. No.

Why do the nutcases always look the same?

I like how the video cut-aways dwell on a bazooka and a compound bow...

Holy crap, he refers to Obama as "their boy in the White House"!

Get off our side, d-bag.

I like how how the B-Roll footage was of rocket launchers and compound bows. The stupid! It burns!

While this is probably not going to happen, it does shed light once again on abuse of executive privilege and sidestepping Congress. Not that Congress has has a wonderful track record of pawning off its responsibilities to federal agencies. It's a great strategy, though.

To be fair, Bush wa often referred to as Big Oil's boy in the White House. I wouldn't read too much into that.

Where did Fox find this nut job? The Alex Jones Show? They couldn't find a credible guest apparently.

He's the perfect kind of guest to throw out there so that the easily influenced will take his message and go running to gun forums across America to post how that boy in the white house is going to take their guns away.

You know he's not as much as anyone else knows he is... but he has stated himself that he has plans for more gun control, so it wouldn't surprise me if this is how he planned on going about it. He does have a history of shoving things down people's throats whether they want it or not (Obamacare, for example).

I'm going to need a bit more evidence than what that guy has put forth. Who the hell is he? Some forum operator? He's a self-described "gun rights expert."

You haven't heard other groups (ie: NRA, Second Amendment Foundation) screaming about this yet either.

People on forums find out first, then let those organizations know.

That's how it works.

When is Fox news ever a credible news source? We're talking about the same network that created a special about how the lunar landing was a hoax..

You seriously believe that some schmuck on a message board is going to find out something like this before a few hundred Senators, Congressmen, Aides, Lobbyists and their lawyers?

I think he is implying that all semi-autos would be added to the NFA weapon list(like SBRs and suppressors), requiring you to pay the $200 tax and fill out the BATFE forms to own them.
