Biden expected to announce executive action on guns

President Biden is expected to announce on Thursday a series of executive actions aimed at curbing gun violence, a source familiar with the matter confirmed to The Hill.

White House press secretary Jen Psaki appeared to indicate during a press briefing on Wednesday that Biden would address gun violence the following day, but she would not elaborate on what specific measures he would announce.

Hunting season?

I can think of things he could try, and even a few things that would hobble firearms purchases without technically running afoul of law or Constitution (or, rather, no more so than currently). But let’s not give them any ideas.

Georgia state House Speaker David Ralston is a useless, effing coward.

Gun rights legislation fails to get final approval in Georgia House
House Speaker David Ralston (R-Blue Ridge) said after the session ended Wednesday night that the recent mass shootings, including one in metro Atlanta, played a factor in his not calling up House Bill 218 for a vote.

“Frankly, I thought we needed to be very, very sensitive to any gun legislation,’’ he told reporters. “We’re less than two weeks out from two major mass killings. That heightens my level of sensitivity to that.’’

The Catholic Church has an abuse problem. This is a bad time to defend freedom of religion.

Someone said something mean. This is a bad time to defend free speech.

There are crack houses. This is a bad time to defend property rights.

Our Secretary of State violated the hell out of state election laws. This is a bad time to defend voters’ rights.

What pray tell, Mr. Ralston, do the actions of law-breaking murderers have to do with my rights? A mentally ill guy in Atlanta murdered people, so the millions of Georgians who didn’t do it should be blamed? That’s exactly what you’re doing when you decided to abandon us because someone else did something bad.

Ralston caved because he has no balls.
