Obama Being Sued For Violating Constitutional Rights Well, weve seen this coming. According to recent reports, the first lawsuit has just been filed challenging President Barack Obamas executive actions concerning gun control. Conservative attorney Larry Klayman took the actions to a federal district court in Florida. The lawsuit accuses the president of seeking to circumvent the legislative process and invent new gun laws in violation of the Constitutions separation of powers. The President states that he is doing so purely because he does not like the legislative decisions of the Congress, Klayman argues. These actions are unconstitutional abuses of the presidents and executive branchs role in our nations constitutional architecture and exceed the powers of the president as set forth in the U.S. Constitution. Klayman further argues that the presidents actions infringe on the Second Amendment rights of American citizens. One of the new gun control measures, for example, redefines what it means to be in the business of selling guns to include non-gun dealers. Klaymans lawsuit is believed to be the first in what is expected to become a series of legal challenges over Obamas gun orders. What do you think? Do you support Klaymans actions?
