I don't see a whole lot of action coming out of the WH. Even the majority of the Dems don not want to get sideways with the NRA.
What we will see today is items dealing background checks, even in the private sale. I think we will see background checks for sales at gun shows and stuff like that.
Time will tell.
This is probably true. We're already seeing a revolt among law enforcement. http://www.newser.com/story/161066/2nd- ... gn=rss_3_2" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Don't forget the revolt among military (Oath Keepers).
