Obama – Gun Control?

If Obama is elected, will he have the power to pass any of these laws?

Please don’t post if you think it’s right or if it’s wrong. I simply want to know, if he likely has the power to do any of these, and if so – which?

1: Ban use of firearms for home defense.
2: Pass Federal laws eliminating your Right-To-Carry.
3: Ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns.
4: Close down 90 of the gun shops in America.
5: Ban rifle ammunition commonly used for hunting and sport shooting.
6: Increase federal taxes on guns and ammunition by 500 percent.
7: Restore voting rights for five million criminals including those who have been convicted of using a gun to commit a violent crime.
8: Expand the Clinton semi-auto ban to include millions more firearms.
9: Mandate a government-issued license to purchase a firearm.
10: Appoint judges to the U.S. Supreme Court and Federal judiciary who share his views on the second ammendment.

(I think the NRA published this list?)

Also, by power .. I also meant if he can "talk" congress into passing these laws

Looking for lawyer who can help with gun carrying laws in Michigan..?

Although MCL 750.227 restricts carrying a pistol concealed on your person or in a vehicle, there is no statute that specifically prohibits carrying a visible pistol. MCL 750.234d states that you cannot possess any firearm in a depository financial institution, a church or other house of religious worship, court, theatre, sports arena, day care center, hospital or an establishment licensed under the Michigan liquor control act, unless that possession is with the permission of the owner or his/her agent of the entity

I was placed on probabtion when I was 21 for possession of a firearm with out a license will i be able to get

I was placed on probation when I was 21 for possession of a firearm without a license to carry. The gun was registered in my name but the only thing I didn’t have a license. Someone called 911 stating that I looked suspicious because I was digging in my pocket. I was walking to my father’s house to leave the gun there. Before I could reach his house, a police officer ran up to me with his hand on his gun telling me to put my hands up. I felt like he didn’t have a justified reason to search me and he treated me unfairly. I was eventually charged with a misdemenaor and placed on 5 yrs probation. I’m trying to figure out if I could get off probation early and I need to get my record expunged. But I still have like 3 yrs to serve,but I can not find a good job and need help and answers

Federal Law and Long Guns in Ohio, with 'Low Felony' in a restrictive state…?

I am pursuing my 2nd Amendment possible privilege under Federal law in Ohio. I have found a Pawn shop that sells rifles and shotguns, and uses the Federal Instant Check, as per Ohio law – it is the only thing required. As far as I know, Federal law has less stringent requirements and only requires the Instant Check on purchases of Long Guns and filling out the form, nothing else required.

I have a conviction of Possession of a Weapon without a License, 2C:39-5, from New Jersey. The Weapon was a BB Gun (think Daisy Red Rider, for an illustration of a BB Gun – it wasn’t a Daisy, but it was not a Firearm) and is only a charge under NJ Law. NJ Law made it a ’3rd degree crime’ under the scale of 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th degree crimes, 4th being the least and 1st being You go to prison for 25 to Life.

I have had posts from a gentleman who had a Class ‘D’ Felony in a State and was -granted- the permission in NY State to own a Long Gun. I feel I am in the same situation as this gentlemen: Yes to Record, but No as to it being Disqualifying, as per the legal purchase.

Does the Brady system (funny because it is the Federal Check) allow me to present this as evidence if a Deny or Delay response is given by the Instant Check? Would I be given a Delay response, if the computer senses this discrepancy? Will I be able to do this same process if it does say Deny? (State is Ohio, even less requirements than NY State, so…)

Please shed some light on this, I am becoming hopeful! Thank You. – Joseph
