Same idea, making assumptions based on an act. You're assuming GC holders will start getting denied because trump denied entry to GC from a specific country.

Couple of obvious things:
First, terrible analogy. Obama needed Congressional approval to do anything significant on gun control, in fact he couldn't do anything; Trump doesn't on immigration enforcement within existing law, and he has already passed an EO unilaterally to that effect.
The Republican assumption you allude to was nothing but groundless, slippery-slop fallacy, fear-generating paranoia - Obama had no statutory standing, let alone an "act", to do anything on gun control.
Second, I did not make an assumption - don't even know how you drew inferrence - I merely stated a fact, pointed to the evidence, the concomitant consequences, and concluded by stating that we were more vulnerable then LPRs.

Nowhere did I state that it could be expanded to other LPR/Green card holders. That is an entirely different question. For reasons incomprehensible to anyone, that assumption was your alone, which you then attribute to me.
Your arguing with your own straw-man.
