    Executive Orders can only pertain to existing law passed by congress.

    No doubt they're scouring the law books looking for some rule they can bend to mean what they want.

    It's Martial Law that is being considered, regardless what Biden wants to call it. The Dems are insane for even making this an issue right now while the economy is sucking. They will guarantee a Republican landslide in the next few elections.

    It's a clever way for them to find all the secessionists by tweaking them enough to get them to attempt an armed rebellion, which they will quash handily because the 2nd Amendment is useless. Then they'll win every election.

    I would tell Obama that he will only help his opposition. If he wants humanitarian issues, continue igniting murderous mercenary wars in Libya and Syria.

    Britain has a higher crime rate than any other rich nation except Australia, according to a survey yesterday.

    The chances of having your car stolen are greater in England and Wales than anywhere else in the developed world, it said.

    ...

    According to the figures released yesterday, 3.6 per cent of the population of England and Wales were victims of violent crime in 1999 - second only to Australia, where the figure was 4.1 per cent.

    Scotland had a slightly lower rate of violence, at 3.4 per cent.

    In the U.S., only 2 per cent of the population suffered an assault or robbery.

    One in 40 people in England and Wales had their cars stolen in 1999, the highest rate in the 17 developed countries examined.

    Just one in 200 Americans suffered a car theft while in Japan there was only one per 1,000 of the population.

    The study looked at crime rates in 12 western European countries plus Poland, Canada, the U.S., Australia and Japan.

    The chances of becoming a victim of any crime in England and Wales were second only to Australia.

    Here, 26 per cent suffered from crime against an average across all the countries of just 21 per cent.

    England and Wales are among the countries 'most pressured by crime', the report concludes.

    The two countries had the equal highest number of crimes per head of population of all 17 states.

    There were 58 incidents for every 100 inhabitants in England and Wales - the same as Australia.
