President Obama, who promised to pursue gun control under the radar, has fulfilled that promise.
Obama has expanded civil-forfeiture rules making it permissible for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to seize weapons from citizens without the hassle of due process.
This effectively gives Attorney General Eric Holder, of Fast and Furious fame, extended power over guns and gun-related property.
The rules were broadened under the guise of giving the ATF authority “to seize and administratively forfeit property involved in controlled substance abuses.” And if that doesn’t strike you as extreme on first glance, consider the fact that this expansion of civil-forfeiture allows the ATF to forego almost all “due process” in making their seizures — in effect, placing the burden of proof on the citizen instead of federal agents.
It is not a law enacted by congress. Even if it were, the state has the right to nullify or refuse enforcement within its sovereign borders. So ask every Democrat you see… “Do you support President Obama’s effort to seize guns (or any property) without due process?” “What legislation or action would you take to preserve the rights of New Hampshire Citizens from this unconstitutional executive overreach?”
Ask New Hampshire Democrats…”Will You Let Obama Seize our Guns?”
Ask them. Then quote them. If they don’t answer, then report that as well.
