As numerous analysts have pointed out, President Obama’s new executive gun control actions don’t amount to very much, and even if you assume maximum nuisance and mischief from the policy, it is certainly incommensurate with the public events it came wrapped in this week. It’s almost as if Obama wants us to think he’s trying to change public opinion, when by now it should be perfectly obvious that he is in cahoots with gun manufacturers and retailers, as gun sales are soaring. Someone should look into whether he’s getting pledges from Smith & Wesson for his presidential library. (Heh.)
