Jim, what has happened in our VA Hospitals and the link below is the grim reality of how the rats hate our veterans.

Police Arming for War against Veterans (2 VIDEOS)

Not only has the Obama administration waged war on our veterans through the VA Scandal, now there is whole new front of attack on our veterans we have to worry about.
In a terrifying news report on the militarization of our police forces watch as a veteran officer of the Indiana police remarks that police are having to prepare for returning veterans with the ability to make IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices).
Thats right. One of the reasons our police forces are giving for having to become more like military forces is the soldiers returning home from the front.
Its scary watching our police forces become militarized but its even scarier to hear some of their reasons for doing so. Crime, including violent crime, has been dropping across the country over the last 30 years, yet somehow this police officer believes that crime has gotten worse since hes become a cop?
Its reasoning just like his that is militarizing our police and its a dangerous precedent to set.
So while local police forces all over the country are militarizing - the President of the United States is simultaneously pushing hard to take guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens because weapons of war dont belong on our streets.
In fact, while the President and the Pentagon pour these powerful military weapons onto our streets, they are demanding that we turn in weapons that are much weaker by contrast. Interestingly, the President seems to believe that our semi-automatic rifles have no place on the street, but he has no problem when local police forces get much stronger and deadlier weapons to use against us.
We shouldnt stop there. We should restore the ban on military-style assault weapons and a 10-round limit for magazines. And that deserves a vote in Congress because weapons of war have no place on our streets, or in our schools, or threatening our law enforcement officers. Our law enforcement officers should never be out-gunned on the streets.
Our founders endlessly debated the idea of a standing military force. In the end it was deemed necessary. Can you imagine how irate they would be to learn that todays America has MULTIPLE standing militaries? The military, our police, and dozens of federal agencies are all now well equipped to control us if need be.
I dont want to sound like someone with a brain-load of conspiracy theories BUT if weve learned anything over the last few years its that we cant trust our government.
So does it sound wise to give up our means of protecting ourselves (the 2nd Amendment) while at the same time watching our government arm all of its different agencies to the teeth?
I dont think so.”
