If an EO goes beyond mandating casual Friday it should be null and void because it probably is unconstitutional.

If all government intrusion is wrong then why havent we heard people screaming about the 279 EOs that Bush has issued?

How can so many people worry about just 1 thing? Really, isnt governmental overreaching bad even if its not guns they are after?

Also, don't forget that all Senators and Members of Congress must stand for re-election, and are unlikely to tread too heavily on the 2nd Amendment. Until Obama is able to shift the Supreme Court, I doubt the legislative branch will jump in here....Keep your fingers crossed!!!!
