[QUOTE="JoeUSooner, post: 3466617, member: 55109"] Oh, yes, Biden CAN act unilaterally... issuing any Executive Order he chooses. If, for instance, he instructed the ATF to immediately designate AR-15s as falling under the Firearms Act that controls automatic weapons [no, of course AR-15's are not automatic, but that fact alone will not prevent Biden from issuing such an Order!] - and presuming ATF obeyed the Order... then, regardless of the legitimacy/legality of that action, that would indeed become exactly what ATF will enforce for however long (however many years) any lawsuits/legal challenges take to wend their way through the courts. And yes such suits would certainly be filed! Yet, should any lower court judge rule in favor of gun owners and issue a cease-and-desist order to the ATF, very likely that ruling would itself be put on hold pending appeal (because Biden Administration's ATF would absolutely appeal, trying to tie up the case for as long as possible.) No-win situation for the patriotic citizenry. But even if the Supreme Court ultimately/eventually slapped ATF's hand, we firearms owners would have been subjected to a hell of a lot of tyrannical treatment in the meantime. Such scenarios are neither impossible nor hyperbole. In such a circumstance, only two alternatives would exist... submission (at least, temporarily), or civil war. Neither choice is optimal, but that would indeed be the only choice available. [/QUOTE]
