.gov: “Do you believe in God?” = mentally ill
An old Soviet trick was to declare enemies of the ruling class “insane” and then slowly deprive them of civil rights, rights of movement, and then eventually lock them up.
Obama isn’t even bright enough to come up with his own tricks.
So, now all we have to do to get our rights erased is have the VA or the SSA tell them that we’re “mentally ill”.
Wonderful. So much for the Constitution.
So Obama is writing new law by ‘memorandum’?
If they succeed at this then everything you do will be considered a mental condition and get your guns taken away.
At least the ones that were not lost in a tragic boating accident or something.
No doubt, opposing 0buttbongo will be fonsidered mental illness..
Good. If you’re crazy enough to get SSI, you’re too crazy to purchase a gun. That might slow down some of the parasites collecting SSI for imagined illness, but I doubt it.
Put liberals at the top of the list.
it’s gonna get a lot worse the next several hundred days.
It will be a battle until the new pres is sworn in.
I dont even trust obama to do that.
We must be prepared for anything.
Camel....nose.....tent.....
“They’re coming to take your gun ho ho ha ha hee hee”
SSA is linked to Medicare, which is linked to the prescription drug plan. Together they see all the charges, drugs and treatments you have with doctors, psychiatrists, etc. Very easy for them to say that you are banned from having a gun if you ever got a prescription for Valium.
Won’t be long before they throw in homophobia and belief in God as mental illnesses that will preclude gun ownership.
Never, ever see any mental health professional unless it is under a false identity. Pay cash. Otherwise you will be flagged and they will try to take your rights away.
This would exclude most Cruz supporters like 2ndDVet. That’s a bridge too far in my book ;)
Right now this is SSA Disability and a Mental Illness. When to they just get all our medical data via Obamacare and just go for the Mental Illness if you are on SSI or expand it to the population, regardless of SSI etc. Remember incrementalism is a hallmark of the Statist. So you go on a mild Valium because your boss is an A-hole and your no longer valid to purchase anything or own it... Hmmm...
This is HEARTBREAKING. I picture vets with serious PTSD will no longer be able to seek treatment out of fear that they would have to live without guns their whole lives. This is WRONG.
There are some people with brain dysfunction who should not have access to guns, but many more who should have that right.
I believe only those with clear intellectual disability severe enough to not understand the dangers of a weapon should be forbidden to own guns. As far as people with “mental illnesses” (such a stupid name): only those in CURRENT danger to themselves or others should be kept temporarily from weapons.
Maybe this will reduce social security disability claims.
But a guy who thinks he’s a chick, or vice versa, gets pumped full of hormones, and is invited into our military
I am outraged. This is a gross broach of due process and inexcusable government intrusion into privacy. Their own HIPPA statutes make this unlawful.
On the other hand, maybe it will pry a few mouths off the government nipple. There are many, many people that have gone on the SS gravy train claiming mental heath issues that lied or deceived to get there.
