Bttt.
I hope old people shoot social security administrators when they come for the guns.
If the govt chooses to interpret third party financial handling of SS checks as auto deposit financial institutions, then everyone who gets a SS check will have to surrender their guns.
Catch-22: You must accept auto deposit there are no other options.
Before you say this is outlandish remember the tactics of the anti-smoking lobby. Over the years the goalposts crept from "Our own section in a restaurant" to "It's a crime to smoke in your own home".
It would be interesting to know just how many of those who have “their SSA benefits managed” actually own guns. How many of them are having someone manage their money as a convenience as opposed to those who are actually mentally incompetent. What is bothersome is that there is absolutely no determination as to mental competence.
Another 4 million “Gun-Free Zones”!!!!
And Obama is going to release countless felons, because #BlackLivesMatter, or some-such insanity.
Talk about a perfect storm.
An examination of notable shooting in the last few years, including Chattanooga by an Islamic terrorist, Ft. Hood by an Islamic terrorist, DC Naval Yard by a probable Islamic terrorist, the Aurora, CO movie shooter (now an Islamist) and the Newtown school shooting, absolutely none were done by Social Security recipients with third party payees. Obama is an idiot.
Just google "When they first came for the Jews, I did nothing because I was not a Jew..."
And discover where that eventually led.
I just cannot see how they plan on carrying a gun grab like this out.
First, they have no idea who even has guns or how many or where they are kept etc, unless it’s some lefty haven where such records are kept on the citizens.
Will the SSA be able to get search warrants??
This may be in the works, but it will not happen during the current presidency. If Satan gets Hitlery elected, then maybe the guns are gone, but so is the country.
This is how it starts.
Having been a rep payee for hundreds of clients I can tell you that probably 60 percent of them were perfectly capable and could own and handle a gun. Most of them could not handle their affairs because they had thieving lying relatives and/or caregivers.
People need to understand a representative payee is not like a conservator. When you have a conservator you probably couldn’t and shouldn’t handle a gun. Not the same thing at all.
They are just trying to get there a communist foot in the door.
Citizen: “You want to live? Then don’t mess with our guns”.
Yet anther reason you shouldn’t want the Government managing anything. They tend to act in accordance to the various interest of political leaders rather than your interest. Thus suddenly your retirement plan and your healthcare suddenly become contingent upon a host of other unrelated demands.
Don’t be shocked at all when Obama ‘encourages’ IE orders ‘insurance’ plans to ‘discourage’ gun ownership, before moving on to strip other freedoms in the name of Washington’s political interest.
Keep control of theses things yourself and nobody can uses them against you. Let Government have control and they will be used against you when ever politicians see fit.
Not everyone receiving S.S. benefits through a representative payee are old people, many of them are minors.
Do you know how many Veterans receive Social Security Benefits. 65 is the age limit some start receiving it and most Viet Nam vets are in, or very close to that age.
Anyone know if they’re going to come after the guns of the representative payees, too?
If so, they’d be in some deep doo-doo.
What government could deem a person incapable of owning a gun for mental reasons and then convict them for "venting" (all sorts of puns waiting in the last)?
An ‘older’ white man involved in a national news shooting in Louisiana- boy is that convenient..
