The Five Most Outrageous Facts About Obama’s Executive Gun Control

Brietbart ^ | January 5, 2016 | AWR Hawkins

[Zakeet]

The five most offensive aspects of those controls:

1. The main policy would not have stopped any recent mass shootings
2. 225 years of precedent, destroyed–without any legislative due process
3. You can be denied a gun for purely financial reasons or if you are on Social Security
4. It adds more burdens to gun dealers who are already following the law
5. Tax dollars for "smart guns" that nobody wants

[Zakeet]

6. It will start a revolution if the Royal Idiot tries to enforce it

[ManHunter]

7. It overrides HIPAA and the physician/patient privilege.

I wonder just how many doctors really want to be tools for the federal government.

[Yo-Yo]

Methinks that Breitbart overreacted. Obummer’s proclamations amount to nothing more than either announcing regulation changes that have long been in the works, or restating what was already existing rules and laws.

Right you are regarding your health care data beung shared between private corporations and federal agencies.
The Federal OCR HHS just modified HIPAA regulations to accommodate Obola’s firearms rule fiat executive order.

Once you tread on the Constitution, using it as doormat is an easy matter.

I’d love to hear the courts reasoning how #3 would NOT be construed as an infringement.

Let alone the 4th A. for medical records, 5th A for ‘smart’ guns

Constitution? Who needs that when they have PRECEDENT!? /s

“I wonder just how many doctors really want to be tools for the federal government.”

Probably just the ones that want to get paid. Or not be audited by the IRS every year.

From your link:

NICS is the federal database that stores information about individuals prohibited by law from possessing firearms. Those include felons, those convicted of domestic violence and individuals involuntarily committed to a mental institution or found to be a danger to themselves or others, or unable to manage their affairs due to a mental health condition, according to HHS.

Not according to the actual statute. 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(4) states: "(W)ho has been adjudicated as a mental defective or who has been committed to a mental institution;"

The statute says nothing about unable to manage their affairs.

7. It overrides HIPAA and the physician/patient privilege.

8. Can the Bill of Rights be eliminated by executive Order, a vote of either or both of the bicameral Congress or even a Constitutional Amendment?

That's like saying the foundation of a skyscraper is unnecessary.

Read the actual Federal Registry of what the OCR HHS has done.
Statutes words mean nothing in a day and age of lawless lawmakers.

Sit down, shut up, and eat your peas.
Your second and first amendments are dissolving quickly.

When have you had enough?
How will you explain this to our children that we willingly let this happen with a whimper?

How will you explain this to our children that we willingly let this happen with a whimper?

They're the ones Obama expects to demand it.

[TigersEye]

I don’t think the courts will support that HIPAA override so
I wonder how many doctors want to risk the biggest lawsuit
of their careers which malpractice insurance won’t cover?

I wonder just how many doctors really want to be tools for the federal government.

Only those who wish to avoid criminal prosecution for violation of HIPPA. Obama can't override the law. Congress has to change the legislation. Until Congress does that, a doctor is subject to criminal prosecution for violation of HIPPA privacy law(s). It's a great way to lose a career.

President Trump has vowed that on his first day in office, he will revoke this EO and every other unconstitutional EO issued by Obama. It would be even better if President Trump simply revoked ALL of Obama’s EOs with Trump Presidential EO #1, and then reissued any that actually might some merit.
