“Feinstein says a veteran may be mentally ill and should be prevented from purchasing firearms”

I’m almost positive that there are great numbers of Congress who are mentally ill. Perhaps it is those who should be prevented from buying firearms.


The United States has a seriously large number of very highly trained and capable combat vets with extensive combat experience. This scares the heck out of our politicians, especially those politicians who anticipate being in control of the new Civilian Security that is better armed than the US military.

The Democrats are really more concerned with keeping weapons out of the hands of experienced combat vets using the pretext of PTSD and giving themselves the legal grounds to seize weapons from vets and perhaps even institutionalize them if there should be civil strife in order to keep vets from organizing effective countermeasures to any of the kinds of situations we may face if things get seriously sideway in the economy.

Re: 8

That is probably a correct assessment. Mrs. Feinstein is referencing a Battle of Athens scenario where returned WWII veterans helped overthrow some crooked politicians in Tennessee.
I have no doubt that the level of crookedness that exists in our politician class today, exceeds that which existed in Athens in 1946.

I agree with you completely. The bastards won't be able to do much about their knowledge and leadership though.
