Paranoia. So far there has not been ANY gun legislation introduced and the odds of anything other then very MINOR laws passed are pretty much non existent. Right wing paranoia. The house is still controlled by Republicans. They are not going to sign off and they would have to. Obama isnt going to steal your guns.
Link to 8 bills
Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY) led the way with four bills introduced.
- Significant restrictions on gun show transactions, which would in effect end gun shows;
- No online purchases of ammunition, and licensing of ammunition dealers, as well as reporting to the federal government all bulk ammunition purchases;
- Prohibition on the transfer, sale, or possession of ammunition clips beyond a certain size.
Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL), ... introduced legislation that would create more stringent licensing for gun owners.
So did Rep. Rush Holt (D-NJ).
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) proposed a bill that would prevent anyone under age 21 from carrying a handgun
Rep. Jim Moran (D-VA) pushed forward a bill requiring background checks on all gun sales, which would essentially prevent non-gun-shop transfers of weapons.

Feinstein appears in Stahl's report on the increase in gun sales taking place in America to be broadcast this Sunday, April 12, at 7 p.m. ET/PT.
Asked by Stahl if trying to renew the assault weapons ban would start a culture war and pose a distraction for an already overburdened Obama Administration, Feinstein replies, "I agree with you." "So you are going to hold off?" asks Stahl. "That's correct. I'll pick the time and the place, no question about it," Feinstein tells Stahl.

Then shortly after, the price was allowed to free float. Essentially, FDR ripped off the American people billions of dollars (Americans were paid approx. $20 per ounce, when they should've been paid approx. $35 per ounce) by undervaluing their gold.

If anyone has accounts with Bank of America, you might want to find a new bank. Not sure the legality of what they are doing.

By offering them money for their gold under Executive Order #6102 without Congressional approval. Without Congressional approval, the president made you a criminal if you possessed gold or silver coin or bullion.

Even the $35/ounce was a government set price and they kept it at the price for decades. When they finally deregulated gold prices in the '70s the price jumped several fold to well over $100/ounce as I remember. Yes, the government saw WW II coming and knew that they'd need gold and they ripped off the American people big time!
Personally I think that anybody that think the government is going to BUY back their guns is an idiot! They'll simply outlaw them and declare them to be contraband and then they're entltled (in their mind anyway!!) to take them without compensation.

Simply put; even beyond their anti-free rights and anti-gun attitude WHY would anyone still trust BofA???

With all the legal trouble that BofA is in over faking fourclosure documentation, faking loan applicants incomes, etc to make homes loans, then over rating loan packages to in order to sell them to unsuspecting investors, etc etc etc I'm surprised that ANYONE would still trust them with their money or do business with them.

When I was refinancing I had a first and second mortgage. I was going to subordinate a small part of the second mortgage amounting to approximately 5k. B of A would not sign the subordination agreement, because my loan to value would be too high. The funny part is the loan to value was no different after my refinance than before the refinance. Before the refinance they were on the hook for the entire amount of the loans on my house. After the refinance they would be on the hook for about 5k. My opinion is they refused to sign the document, because they were under the mistaken belief that if they refused, I would not be able to refinance my loans and since I always made my payments on time they knew it was easy money. It kind of makes sense. How many people have $5k sitting around collecting dust? That would leave them collecting roughly 8.75% combined interest on the loans. In a big "F--- YOU" to them, I pulled the money out of one of my accounts, paid off the second, and refinanced my loans. I am saving myself about half my mortgage payment now when compared to pre-refinance.
Edited to add this shameless advertisement: Any vets who do not have a VA loan but want to refinance into one, Regions Bank does 100% VA cash-out (what it is called when you take a VA mortgage out to pay off a non-VA mortgage)refinances. They are the only bank I found, that will honor that part of the VA housing program.

I hope it works out for you guys! Heres a ray of light if you put enough presure on the government they will listen. Just a couple of months ago we the gun owners here in CDN won the dismantle of the gun registry. It took a couple of years but we won!
Keep putting pressure on your government at all levels and they will listen. You will win. Keep positive.
