If there is one place in the American government where "checks and balances" have become a farce, it is in the sheer amount of things the executive branch can get away with by EO. I will be very interested to see what, if any, effect they can have on actual gun control with an Executive Order, and just how fast the Judicial Branch strikes this down. It is far easier for us to vilify guns and maintain the status quo versus recognize and fix what is actually causing all of this violence: the quickly widening cultural polarity between Americans. An actually united populace and culture does not often shoot itself to death. There's too much money to be made by making people pick sides instead of join on a common one, and until that changes, I don't think America will ever solve its violence problem.
