A President cannot declare a national emergency and remove constitutional rights of US citizens. Please show any such evidence they they could.
All of what you say is true, but the real question is, do you think a leftist president, backed by a majority leftist congress will care about any of that? No, they will not.
Doesn't change the fact that neither the leftist President or majority leftist congress you mention will be able to enforce such a dictate.
And are you prepared to sacrifice all abilities to sell and purchase leagally to create this increased value and black market for weapons? This is how they will criminalize the market
It won't happen. It'll be like ripping the tag off your mattress. Who cares what the laws of the land are if the authorities can't or won't enforce them? There are examples already in the mix. Look up the NY SAFE act. Cops ignored it. In NY State! What do you think will happen when you come for Texans' guns? Christ, they couldn't even outlaw incandescent light bulbs.
Trump wouldn't be "setting precedent". Odumbo did LOTS of it! You just didn't hear Pelosi and Schumer whining about it under Obama's pen.
Obama did Executive Orders, which is a bit different than declaring a National Emergency to allocate funding and bypass Congress (whose job it is to allocate funding).
I don't share your optimism. This government can and will become very heavy handed under the right conditions and we are now one very small step from that environment. Further i don't think those Texans or anyone else will be all that rebellious when the actaul assault begins. Easy to talk until the bodies start to drop.
Didn't Obama use EOs to allocate the expenses of funding his attempt at (illegally?) swamping America with illegal alien immigrants? (Read somewhere that America has been operating under some "National Emergency" declared by Odumbo since about 2012. The way to end "his" emergency is to declare a new one.) ??
