[applause] meanwhile, since missouri repealed a law requiring comprehensive background checks and purchase permits, gun deaths have increased to an almost 50 higher than the national average. One study found, unsurprisingly, that criminals in missouri now have easier access to guns. And the evidence tells us that in states that require background checks, lawabiding americans dont find it any harder to purchase guns whatsoever. Their guns have not been confiscated, their rights have not been infringed. And thats just the information we have access to with more research we could further improve gun safety just as with more research weve reduced traffic fatalities enormously over the last 30 years. We do research when cars, food, medicine, even toys harm people so that we make them safer. And you know what . Research, science, those are good things. They work. [laughter] [applause] they do. But think about this when it comes to an inherently Deadly Weapon nobody argues that guns are potentially Deadly Weapons that kill tens of thousands of americans every year, Congress Actually voted to to make it harder for Public Health experts to conduct research into gun violence. Made it harder to collect data and facts and develop strategies to reduce gun violence. Even after San Bernardino, theyve refused to make it harder for terror suspects who cant get on a plane to buy semiautomatic weapons. Thats not right. [laughter] that cant be right. So the gun lobby may be Holding Congress hostage right now, but they cannot hold america hostage. [applause] we do not have to accept this partisan [applause] now, i want to be clear, Congress Still needs to act. The folks in this room will not rest until congress does. [cheers and applause] because once Congress Gets on board with common sense gun safety measures, we can reduce gun violence a whole lot more. But we also cant wait. Until we have a congress thats in line with the majority of americans, there are actions within my Legal Authority that we can take to help reduce gun violence and save more lives. Actions that protect our rights and our kids. After sandy hook joe and i worked together with our teams, and we put forward a whole series of executive actions to try to tighten up the existing rules and systems that we had in place. But today we want to take it a step further. So let me outline what were going to be doing. Number one, anybody in the business of selling firearms must get a license and conduct background checks or be subject to criminal prosecutions. [applause] it doesnt matter whether youre doing it over the internet or at a gun show. Its not where you do it, but what you do. Were also expanding background checks to cover violent criminals who try to buy some of the most dangerous firearms by hiding behind trusts and corporations and various cutouts. Were also taking steps to make the background check system more efficient. Under the guidance of jim comey and the fbi, our Deputy Director tom brandon at atf, were going to hire more folks to process applications faster, and were going to brick an outdated bring an outdated background check system into the 21st century. [applause] and these steps will actually lead to a smoother process for lawabiding gun owners, a smoother process for responsible gun dealers, a stronger process for protecting the people from or the public from dangerous people. So thats number one. Number two, were going to do everything we can to insure the smart and effective enforcement of gun safety laws that are already on the books, which means were going to add 200 more atf agents and investigators, were going to require firearms dealers to report more lost or stolen guns on a timely basis. Were working with advocates to protect victims of Domestic Abuse from gun violence [applause] where too often people are not getting the protection that they need. Number three, were going to do more to help those suffering from Mental Illness get the help that they need. [applause] so high profile Mass Shootings tend to shine a light on those few mentally unstable people who inflict harm on others, but the truth is that nearly two in three gun deaths are from suicides. So a lot of our work is to prevent people from hurting themselves. Thats why we made sure that the Affordable Care act, also known as obamacare [laughter] [applause] finally that law made sure that treatment for Mental Health was covered the same as treatment for any other illness. Thats why were going to invest 500 million to expand access to treatment across the country. [applause] its also why were going to insure that federal Mental Health records are submitted to the background check system and remove barriers that prevent states from reporting relevant information. If we can continue to destigmatize Mental Health issues, get folks proper care and fill gaps in the background check system, then we can spare more families the pain of losing a loved one to suicide. And for those in congress who so often rush to the blame Mental Illness for Mass Shootings as a way of avoiding action on guns, heres your chance to support these efforts, put your money where your mouth is. [applause] number four, were going to boost gun safety technology. You know, today many gun injuries and deaths are the result of legal guns that were stolen or misused or discharged accidentally. In 20 and alone 2013 alone, more than 500 people lost their lives to gun accident, and that includes 30 children younger than 5 years old. The greatest, most technologicallyadvanced country on earth, theres no reason for this. We need to develop new technologies that make guns safer. If we can set it up so you cant unlock your phone unless youve got the right fingerprint, why cant we do the same thing for our guns . [applause] if theres an app that can help us find a missing tablet which happens to me often [laughter] the older i get [laughter] if we can do it for your ipad, theres no reason we cant do it with a stolen gun. If a child cant open a bottle of aspirin, we should make sure that they cant pull a trigger on a gun. Ms. All right . [applause] so were going to advance research, were going to work with the private sector to update firearms technology. And some gun retailers are already stepping up by refusing to finalize a purchase without a complete background check or by refraining from selling semiautomatic weapons or highcapacity magazines. And i hope that more retailers and more Manufacturers Join them. Because they should care as much as anybody about a product that now kills almost as Many Americans as car accidents. I make this point because none of us can do this alone. I think mark made that point earlier. All of us should be able to Work Together to find a balance that declares the rest of our rights are also important. Second amendment rights are important. But there are other rights that we care about as well, and we have to be able to balance them. Because our right to worship freely and safely [applause] that right was denied to christians in charleston, south carolina. [applause] and that was denied jews in kansas city, and that was denied muslims in chapel hill and sikhs in oak creek. They had rights too. [applause] our right to peaceful assembly, that right was robbed from moviegoers in aurora and lafayette. Our unalienable right to life and liberty and the pursuit of happiness, those rights were stripped from college kids in blacksburg and santa barbara. And from High Schoolers at columbine. And from first graders many newtown in newtown. First graders. And from every family who never imagined that their loved one would be taken from our lives by a bullet from a gun. Every time i think about those kids, it gets me mad. And by the way, it happens on the streets of chicago every day. [applause] so all of us need to demand a congress brave enough to stand up to the gun lobbys lies, all of us need to stand up and protect its citizens, all of us need to demand governors and legislators and businesses do their part to make our communities safer. We need the wide majority of responsible gun owners who grieve with us every time this happens and feel like your views are not being properly represented to join with us to demand something better. [applause] and we need voters who want safer gun laws and who are disappointed in leaders who stand in their way to remember come election time. [applause] i mean, some of this is just simple math. Yes, the gun lobby is loud, and it is organized in defense of making it effortless for guns to be available for anybody, anytime. Well, you know what . The rest of us, we all have to be just as passionate. We have to be just as organized in defense of our kids. This is not that complicated. The Reason Congress blocks laws is because they want to win elections. And if you make it hard more them to win an election for them to win an election if they block those laws, theyll change course, i promise you. [applause] and, yes, it will be hard, and it wont happen overnight. It wont happen during this congress. It wont happen during my presidency. But a lot of things dont happen overnight. A womans right to vote didnt happen overnight. Liberation of africanamericans didnt happen overnight. Lgbt rights, that was decades worth of work. So just because its hard, thats no excuse not to try. And if you have any doubt as to why you should feel that fierce urgency of now, think about what happened three week ago. Xavion dalton was a sophomore in knoxville, temperature. He played football. Beloved by his classmates and his teachers. His own mayor called him one of their citys success stories. The week before christmas he headed to a friends house to play video games. He wasnt in the wrong place at the wrong time, he hadnt made a bad decision. He was exactly where any other kid would be, your kid, my kids. And then gunmen started firing. And xavion, who was in high school, hadnt even gotten started in life, dove on top of three girls to shield them from the bullets, and he was shot in the head, and the girls were spared. He gave his life to save theirs. An act of heroism a lot bigger than anything we should ever expect from a 15yearold. Greater love hath no man than this, than a man lay down his life for his friends. We are not asked to do what xavion dobson did. Were not asked to have shoulders that big, a heart that strong, reactions that quick. Im not asking people to have that same level of courage or sacrifice or love. But if we love our kids and care about their prospects and if we love this country and care about its future, then we can find the courage to vote, we can find the courage to get mobilized and organized, we can find the courage to cut through all the noise and do what a sensible country would do. Thats what were doing today, and tomorrow we should do more, and we should do more the day after that. And if we do, well leave behind a nation thats stronger than the one we inherited and worthy of the sacrifice of a young man like xavion. [applause] thank you very much, everybody. God bless you. Thank you. [applause] harris and so from the east room in the white house, the president rolling out what he will do with executive action now about gun law legislation in america. It was detailed in parts, it was emotional at parts. He was introduced by the parent of one of the children, by a parent of one of the children who died at sandy hook elementary in newtown, connecticut, and flanked on that day questions are by families of victims of gun violence. Many of his words were anticipated. We knew some of the legislative talk and some of the areas that he wanted to focus on in terms of gun legislation. Anybody who sells firearms must have a license or face prosecution. And, of course, as we come out to the couch in just a moment, well learn that, you know, this has been by Congress Several times. So now hes doing it without congress. The president Going Forward without bicameral lawmakers who were elected by americans. Hes doing it on his own. Just a couple things to point out. He talked about guns as, in his words, a product that kills almost as many people as car accidents. Im just going to the tick down some things that he said. Well talk further in a moment. And he listed some of the times in which he feels that our inalienable rights for the pursuit of joy and happiness and so on and so forth were robbed; aurora, colorado, the Movie Theater shooting, the mass shooting at santa barbara, newtown, connecticut, columbine. And lastly, he said and teared up as he talked about it his own home city of chicago. And then a turn. From those tears that the president wiped away on his face back to politics. And telling people that voters need to remember come election time which leaders are standing in the way of gun safety in his opinion, and we watched the crowded room. And as we do, the president making his way beyond and past those families that i mentioned who were gathered there. The room at times was very silent, and the camera would sometimes turn to other faces, particularly when the tears began to flow. But that is the east room of the white house. This being one of the things that the president had promised that he would get done no matter what it took. And what it took today was executive action. This is outnumbered, im harris faulkner. Here today, andrea tantaros, melissa francis, nationally syndicated radio host megan mccain, and todays oneluckyguy, always on time with the breaking news, fox news judicial analyst, judge andrew napolitano, and i deserve it. I am glad you are here with us. I said a lot there, and i want to start here with you. The president has just done something that other president s do, and hes only done it now 230 times in his presidency, far less than some others, and thats use executive action. But it has been the very things that he has used that pen on that really have brought the controversy. What do you say about this one, and how does it fly in the face if at all with our constitution . Several of the things first of all, harris, very happy to be here even though were discussing very hard topics. Its one of the best assignments at fox. Harris god bless you. [laughter] but there are many hinges that the president talk things that the president talked about that he has the ability to do. Can he hire more fbi agents . Of course he can. Can he make background searches more efficient . Yes, he can. Can he expand the database on which background searches rely . Can he enforce federal gun laws more aggressively, yes, but that shouldnt be newsworthy. He should have been doing that from day one on the job. But what he cannot do is change the law. And heres where he purports to and prosecute people who disobey the law that he wrote. Congress on three occasions harris right. Had before it the ability to change the law so that if you give a gun to me, you have to become a licensed gun dealer and do a background search on me. Harris that was the number one thing he mentioned. Correct. Congress three times said, no. Hes going to write that into the law, and hes going to prosecute people who fail to do it. That is a blatant violation of the separation of powers which basically says under the Constitution Congress writes the law harris well, then how is he doing it . The president enforces them. Hes going to direct agents of the department of or the bureau of tobacco, alcohol and firearms to find out where gun transfers have occurred, where the persons selling or giving the gun didnt have a gun ladies and gentlemen with which to do so melissa can i bravely take the other side . Its the most difficult federal license to obtain. It takes over a year to get it. Thats how intrusive is the background check on the person seeking the license. Harris interesting. A plethora of information there. And you want to flip it. Melissa well, i mean, i was listening closely to what he said about this because we have talked about this very issue s and he said that was going to apply to people who were selling guns at a gun show or on the internet. Im not sure he mentioned the neighbor thing. Itll be interesting harris the neighbor in San Bernardino who supplied the guns to the two killers at the Holiday Office party. Melissa i would say to you, judge, i cant give my prescription medicine to my neighbor, i cant sell it to my neighbor. Does it make sense that we would let someone give or sell their gun to their neighbor . It makes sense that only congress can write the laws and not the president. So if he were ronald reagan, he would be using this as an opportunity to go over Congress Head and get the people to Pressure Congress to write the laws that he wants. Ronald reagan did that masterfully. Even bill clinton did that in the years when the republicans controlled the congress. But hes not doing that. Hes writing the laws on his own. And as much as i love you and enjoy working with you [laughter] melissa oh, my gosh. You must have seen a copy of his speech because he likes to compare everyday things like driving a car to owning a gun, like giving a medical prescription to giving a gun. Theyre in different categories of human behavior. Andrea and, judge, what you saw really was a constitutional law Professor Holding what was not a typical white house event. That was, essentially, a political pep rally. Yeah. Andrea he might as well be slapping everyones hands, you know, highfiving, chest bumping. A victory lap. This is what you do after you sign a major piece of legislation after going through the correct channels which is congress. Essentially, this is a congressional law Professor Holding a pep rally over the torching of the u. S. Constitution. How can he do this, and what are republicans supposed to do . Frankly, i think a lot of people look at the courts, and i know you were a very efficient judge. But frankly, judge, the rulings coming out of Supreme Court, theyre unpredictable, theyre a chap shoot. I mean, i think people look at these judges and say where are they getting the decisions from. So what are republicans supposed to do besides create a political stink that will accelerate republican turnout . He may be doing this in order to goad the republicans, but way to stop this is for someone adversely affected by it, prosecuted under his own written law to be, to challenge it in the courts. Harris wow. So doing this to goad the republicans, thats interesting. Before we move on real quickly i dont want to move on. Harris i know you dont, but well come back to it. You know, at one point president talked about how were the only advanced country where these sorts of acts of violence happen. Watch, and then well talk more. We are the only advanced country on earth that sees this kind of Mass Violence erupt with this kind of frequency. It doesnt happen in other advanced countries. Its not even close. And as ive said before, somehow weve become numb to to it, and we start thinking that this is normal. Harris all right. I want to go to you first on this, megan. Megan i had a very hard time watching this press conference or political theaters, and i just remind me when he was talking about americans clinging to their gods and their guns, the Second Amendment is under attack today, make no mistake. That is exactly whats going on. This president is not keeping americans safe, isis is growing, and now hes trying to deny americans the right to defend themselves at the same time. My favorite thing is that a dealer is now considered someone whos going to sell one or two guns. So if my brother sells my other brother a gun, hes now a dealer. Make no mistake, the Second Amendment is under attack today. And if your brother, in your hypothetical, fails to get the license to sell, your brother can be prosecuted and go to jail. Only congress under our constitution can create such a statute. The president alone simply cannot do it. Megan but hes talking about all the rights we have in this country, we also have the right to bear arms which makes us innately american, and just because he doesnt understand that and the way people cling to it doesnt mean he can remove our rights. Harris andrea, i want to get your direct response to what we just aired from the president and us being the only advanced country in the world where some of these things are happening. What did you think about that . Andrea did you notice the addition of a new word . Because i did. Advanced. Harris yes. Thats why i said it twice. Andrea he used to say this doesnt happen in other countries. What he managed to do in, essentially, that one phrase was lie, right . And then insult our greatest ally, france. So it doesnt happen in advanced countries . I mean, judge, you and i were talking, what an incredulous strawman he set up, to talk about long criminal rap sheets and merge chicago with islamists and islamists and Mental Health. I mean, he weaved together such a strawman. None of the shooters had long criminal rap sheets. None of what he is doing would have prevented any of the attacks that weve talked about. I mean, this was just showmanship in the most extraconstitutional way i have ever seen a president do. You know, i was on with bret baier earlier with jon and jenna, and bret makes the great point that this is a political maneuver, that the president is too smart to think that the courts will tolerate this. But he will force republicans to respond to it, and this is like red meat to the democratic base. Harris can i ask a question though . Andrea it is a big mistake, and he better be very thankful that Mental Health is covered under obamacare, because Hillary Clintons going to need it. [laughter] [inaudible conversations] harris i want to ask a question. Are there any parts of it that you think americans would call their congressmen and their senators about and say sure. Harris i mean, investing 500 million to expand access to treatment for the mentally ill, i mean, are there certain things that you think people would like within this . Melissa absolutely. I heard a lot of spending money, you know, which makes me cringe because, you know, i hate paying even more taxes, and i feel like so much of my money is wasted every single day. But he talked about 200 atf agents, updating the systems, making investigations better, spending money on all these things to make it better. If only i felt like more money would really achieve that. I dont have that kind of faith. I think when i watched that what was really upsetting was tears that he wiped away again and again. I mean, we feel frightened about whats going on with isis, and he cant pull that kind of passion for anything but this. And i feel bad about those kids in connecticut, without question. I mean, your heartbreaks for them. Right. Melissa but its only about this that he gets so upet about and never about upset about that and never about terror. Harris you brought that up, you guys had a visceral reaction to some of the emotion that was going on in the room. Well talk about it. Stay close. Try alkaseltzer heartburn reliefchews. They work fast and dont taste chalky. Mmm. Amazing. I have heartburn. Alkaseltzer heartburn reliefchews. Enjoy the relief. We danced in a german dance group. I wore lederhosen. Man. When i first got on ancestry i was really surprised that i wasnt finding all of these germans in my tree. I decided to have my dna tested through ancestry dna. The big surprise was were not german at all. 52 of my dna comes from scotland and ireland. So, i traded in my lederhosen for a kilt. Ancestry has many paths to discovering your story. Get started for free at ancestry. Com. Every time i think about those kids, it gets me mad. And by the way, it happens on the streets of chicago every day. [applause] harris many of us cried big tears the day that sandy hook happened. But as we come back out to the couch, it was interesting to see the reactions amongst some of you when the president teared up. Why was that, andrea . Andrea well, because if he really cared about an issue, especially like chicago and his hometown, and it was plausible, he would be doing something very different than hes doing, and he would have spoken out a long time ago. I mean, this is how many years . Almost eight years . Hes almost at the end of his term. And you havent heard him go to chicago and really speak out about this issue, and he is uniquely poised to do so. But everything hes doing wont solve the problem, so i would check that podium for, like, a raw onion. Harris wow. Andrea its not really believable. And the award goes to, but i do want to ask you about this, judge, because i do believe gun voters vote. And i think Hillary Clinton has a problem because the africanamerican coalition is not going to turn out the way they did for president obama, and she doesnt have women where she needs them. Shes triangulated on this gun issue many times. She is scared because this will accelerate turnout. What do you think about the politics of what the president is thinking on this and how do republicans stop it . The president has made a calculated decision that this will help gin up the democratic base, but i think hes wrong, because i think it will gin up republicans, gun owners, independents, blue collars, ethnic democrats who have had enough of the micromanaging of our lives and our liberties from washington, d. C. , and they want a substantial, significant, even radical change in the type of person in the white house. Harris yeah. You know, i wonder too, megan, if it doesnt attract some of the voters out there who might have stayed home last time, you know . Megan i think this will backfire on him in a lot of different ways, because i agree nothing gets Republican Voters out like thinking that, you know, the Second Amendment is under attack, which it is today. I dont understand why hes doing that. The reason why i was reacting the way i was reacting because it didnt seem horribly authentic. Maybe it is, i dont know him at all, but i agree with you, theres so much more to be done. Again, if you care so much, go to your hometown of chicago instead of talking about godfearing americans who just want to protect themselves when isis is coming to their hometown and shooting up 14 people. Melissa i think its that contrast. If you go back to what happened after the paris attacks and we saw the president come out, and there was no passion, you know . And he talked about what had happened. And, i mean, i remember bill hemmer on that day and a lot of people, and it was sort of staggering the way he was not emotional about this thing that was so terrifying even though it wasnt many our own country. San bernardino, same thing. They come out he comes out, and they say hes just cool. Thats the way he is. He doesnt get emotional. Harris apparently, he does. Melissa right. We havent seen this maybe ever, or at least in a very long time, and its about something that feels political, that feels somewhat insincere megan it feels like bad political theater. So if he were here now, he might say, okay, whats the answer . The answer is more guns. The answer is the right of the people to defend themselves, because when these crazies murder innocents, as soon as somebody shows up to shoot at crazies, they stop. They either flee, they kill themselves or they are killed or injured, but their killing stops. Harris well, can part of the answer also be, i mean, youre talking about laws that are already on the books. How about enforcing the ones that are already there . I mean, have we done all we can . Its just a question, but have we done all we can . Because im thinking of kate steinle, other times when we didnt see the president necessarily melissa or chicago. Harris chicago with these statistics that came out yesterday, had it right here on outnumbered. One of the proposals he announced this morning would require gun owners whenever they lose guns to report to the government. Thats fine. How about when the federal government loses guns . Andrea oh, over the border. There you go. How about the 2,000 guns they andrea what were they up to in benghazi . Judge, move the story forward. I think a lot of concerned citizens are saying what are republicans going to do legally . Do they have legal footing . Be how soon can this play out in the courts, what are the next steps if republicans are going to take this challenge and this is going to play out in the courts . Well, remember, the constitution requires real plaintiffs, so you cant just challenge a statute because you dont like it or because you think its unconstitutional. You have to be someone that they are prosecuting under the statute. So as soon as he signs the executive order and as soon as the bureau of alcohol, tobacco and firearms agents start enforcing it, whoever they enforce it against has to challenge its constitutionality. Until they do something about it, its empty words, and theres no adversity there to justify the use of the courts. Megan i still think this is the type of thing thats going to make liberals feel better. I found out about this on instagram, and its not going to affect anyone because gun owners are following the law, and crazy people dont follow laws. Lister harris but if it moves the needle in an election year, thats complicated for Hillary Clinton. This is not going to change anybody whos a democrat, but if this intensifies independent and Republican Voters, conservative voters, more than they are already intense with donald trump and the outsiders in the race that have gotten this electorate so excited, thats a problem for Hillary Clinton. Because shes got a lot of megs and a lot of people who dont like her. Real quickly, i want to go to this because we have an opportunity with an expert on the couch to have a primer on the Second Amendment. Can we watch what the president said. Theres a ritual about whole thing that i have to do. I believe in the Second Amendment. Its there, written on the paper. It guarantees a right to bear arms. No matter how many times people try to twist my words around, i taught constitutional law, i know a little bit about this. Harris i know a little bit about this. You know a hot about. Listen, i dont want to compare my education and my intellect to his, hes the president of the United States and he did teach constitutional law, but he is not respecting the Second Amendment. He does not believe in the right of people to defend themselves. He wants to do everything he can, as he said, in small, incremental steps to make it difficult for lawabiding people to keep and bear arms to defend themselves. Its not going to take guns away from the people that protect him or other federal officials. Megan exactly. But the police, the military, the secret service cant be everywhere. Harris right. The citizenry. Every american affected by this. Yes. Harris were coming right back. Whats that, broheim . I switched to geico and got more. More savings on Car Insurance . Yeah brofessor, and more. Like renters insurance. More ways to save. Nice, brotato chip. Thats not all, brotein shake. Geico has motorcycle and rv insurance, too. Oh, thats a lot more. Oh yeah, im all about more, teddy brosevelt. Geico. Expect great savings and a whole lot more. It takes a lot of work. But i really love it. S. Im on the move all day long. And sometimes, i just dont eat the way i should. So i drink boost® to get the nutrition that im missing. Boost complete nutritional drink has 26 essential vitamins and minerals, including calcium and vitamin d to support strong bones and 10 grams of protein to help maintain muscle. All with a great taste. I dont plan on slowing down any time soon. Stay strong. Stay active with boost®. Does the smell of a freshly fill you with optimism . Do you love your wireless keyboard more than certain family members . Is your success due to a filing system only you understand . Does printing from your tablet to your wireless printer give you a jolt of confidence . If so, you may be gearcentric. Someone who knows that the right office gear helps you do great things. And theres one place that has it all. Office depot officemax. Gear up for great. Burning, pinsandneedles of beforediabetic nerve pain, these feet served my country, carried the weight of a family, and walked a daughter down the aisle. But i couldnt bear my diabetic nerve pain any longer. So i talked to my doctor and he prescribed lyrica. Nerve damage from diabetes causes diabetic nerve pain. Lyrica is fda approved to treat this pain from moderate to even severe diabetic nerve pain. Lyrica may cause serious allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts or actions. Tell your doctor right away if you have these, new or worsening depression, or unusual changes in mood or behavior. Or swelling, trouble breathing, rash, hives, blisters, muscle pain with fever, tired feeling or blurry vision. Common side effects are dizziness, sleepiness, weight gain and swelling of hands, legs, and feet. Dont drink alcohol while taking lyrica. Dont drive or use machinery until you know how lyrica affects you. Those who have had a drug or alcohol problem may be more likely to misuse lyrica. Now i have less diabetic nerve pain. And my biggest reason to walk calls me grandpa. Ask your doctor about lyrica. The majority of gun owners actually agree. A majority of gun owners agree that we can respect the Second Amendment while keeping an irresponsible, lawbreaking few from inflicting harm on a massive scale. Contrary to the claims of what some gun rights proponents have suggested, this hasnt been the first ten in some slippery first step in some slippery slope to mass confiscation. Contrary to claims of some president ial candidates apparently before this meeting [laughter] this is not a plot to take away everybodys guns. Andrea if you are just tuning in, that was president obama announcing his executive action on guns roughly 30 minutes ago. And, judge, i want to go to you on what the president said, some people, most gun owners think its so ambiguous and amorphous. Thats just not true. Most gun owners and most people who respect the u. S. Constitution dont agree that this is the right approach. You know, even if the president s numbers were accurate, and i think youre right, his numbers were inaccurate, i dont know what polls he relied on, we dont govern by polls. We write laws by the congress, not by the president looking at a poll and saying the congress wouldnt write this law, most of people want it, so ill write it myself. That is not the system the constitution provides. Andrea megan, i want to stay on something that the judge brought up when he said the u. S. Government loses track of guns. The fast and furious with. Youve heard the reports of potential gunrunning on the ground in benghazi, leaving a billion dollars of weaponry in iraq with the surge because he was so anxious to pull out, but now the terrorists are are using it against our men and women. This administration cherry picks when and where. And the same president also said i dont want to indict an entire religion over the actions of a few, so why indict an entire group of gun owners over the actions of a few . Megan there were so many things he was speaking out of both sides of his mouth. The government as well, where does that end up . My biggest problem with this right now, were in such a culture war in this country right now, and the only thing thats going to happen that im sure of is gun sales are going to spike. Family members of my own are probably going out right this moment i love you, jimmy, thats probably what youre doing because right now theres a legitimate reason to think they might be taken away, and its just exacerbating, the polarization in this country right now, and hes attempting to bring us together and somehow placate both sides . And its just making it so much worse. Andrea tell jimmy to get me one too. [laughter] you mentioned the money, but lets talk about clearly the president thinks this is going the resonate potentially with mothers, with parents. The judge is nodding. That emotional argument that some people will say this is reasonable. Who are these some people . Melissa i dont know. You mow that it resonates with people like dana lash who, you know, does the nra ad and talks about those kind of mothers who have weapons. You watch on a day like today, and stockings for Gun Companies are going through the roof because you know that sales are going through the the roof. Harris right. Melissa they say president obama is one of the best sales people of weapons around because there is just the fear that hes going to take it away, so people go out and do it. Without question he is, megan, just like you said, joining up both sides. Harris and a reminder from someone on twitter saying itsnr republicans, democrats have guns too, and they are watching too. Andrea all right. Well be right back. Stay with us. Citracal pearls. Delicious berries and cream. Soft, chewable, calcium plus vitamin d. Only from citracal. Harris so we were just all commenting about how on our devices were not seeing a lot of reaction yet from republicans. And now this has come down, Reince Priebus has said, and ill only read a little bit of this, ever since the American People voted to place a check on president obamas agenda, he has routinely overstepped his constitutional authorities, and this gun control push is no different. The Supreme Court reaffirmed gun ownership is a constitutionallyprotected right, but that clearly has not stopped president obama and the democrats obsession with restricting the Second Amendment. To that coming from the rnc. Your quick thoughts. Andrea so what are you going to do about it . That is what i keep asking the judge. S what the pathway forward . Because theres a legal one and a political one, and republicans need to pursue both with the same intensity and the same ferocity because this is such an affront to the constitution. Well, unless and until somebodys freedom is interfered with by federal agents that he has directed to interfere with that freedom, theres no court case. But as soon as that freedom to purchase or sell a gun under the laws that congress has written is interfered with andrea politically, melissa, they should be starting right now. It is a poker in a political hornets nest, so why arent they creating a bigger stink about this . Harris or it means, you said . Melissa i think it means people will come out and vote. As megan said, these are people who vote. Megan if i were running any campaign, get it out in your emails today, fundraising, its a good way to get the base up and going. Harris come right back.
