Default OT-Veterans Disarmament Act H.R. 2640

Senate wants to disarm vets.

If this bill is passed, an American would be barred from owning guns if:

* He is a U.S. veteran suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder; or

* As a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD in connection with the IDEA program.

Not to mention the fact that an ailing grandfather could have his entire gun
collection seized, based only on a diagnosis of Alzheimer's from a Medicare
home health provider (and there goes the family inheritance).



Best Regards

Tom.

LOL...he misspelled "****in"...proof that the "No Child Left Behind"
program is definitely still needed.

Geez...you would think with "gun" starting with a "g" that he would
have gotten it right.

Remind me to make sure that spelling is included in the psych test
that the Government administers for determining whether the applicant
should own a gun..

Good....I have always maintained that a psych test should be the
requirement for gun purchasing and for continued gun ownership.

If you have the right to own a gun, you also have the responsibility
to use it properly...no excuses.

If you cannot handle the responsibility, you have no right to own a
gun.

We could set up a federal department of gun control, every month you will
be required to undergo a series of psyh tests administrated by a member
of doctors against guns.

Heck, maybe we should test our politicians. It would seem like someone that
never held a job in the private sector, keeps running for new jobs and
abandons the last job he or she was elected to work in and likes to tell
people how to live their lives might have some issues.

By the time the legislation passed, somebody will have those jobs...

A better solution would be to Certify all politicians as Criminally Insane... This would, of
course, mean that the gummints - at all levels - would be unable to function since there'd

Hey, while we're at it, let's take away everyone's

No accusation?
No trial?
No sentence?

Just guilty as charged?
Gee, that must be real nice (for someone).

But I can't really believe that's all there is to it.

In fact...given a number of your posts...its obvious you cant post

There is a gray area with Cheney though...pacemakers may not count.

Im quite in favor of a court hearing and a judgment from them and a
panel of professionals, then a court order being the arbiter.

What "fiat"? Someone who is "adjudicated as a mental defective," and who is
thereby restricted in some action and who objects, is going to have the
decision made by a court in every state. If they don't object, they could be
adjudicated by a board or commission. If they decide later that they object
(possibly because they don't mind being declared mentally unable to care for
themselves but who think they shouldn't be denied purchase of a gun, then
the courts have to decide what constitutes mental defect. The definitions,
as often happens, will be decided by case law. In other words, the person
will get his court hearing.

Those adjudications generally fall into three categories: criminal cases,
which are already based on a trial; control of one's estate, in which a
court makes the decision if there is an objection by the restricted person;
and confinement to a mental institution, which, in every state, requires a
court hearing if the restricted person objects.

In other words, some board or committee may declare a person mentally
incompetent, but a court has to seal the deal unless the affected person
does not object.

If you're saying that it has to go through the courts even if the person
didn't object, then you're saying that mental defectives should have guns as
long as they don't let their case go to trial. In other words, if they're
declared mentally incompetent by a state mental health board and if they
don't object to the decision.

Great logic, Gunner. It's almost as good as skipping background checks at
gun shows. d8-)

So if they pull your guns, then you will also have no problem with
them also removing your first amendment rights.


So, you're in favor of arming mental defectives and psychotics, eh?


Im quite in favor of a court hearing and a judgment from them and a
panel of professionals, then a court order being the arbiter.

You evidently are in favor of having your rights removed by fiat and a
phone call, ne?


I don't know about him, but I'd be all in favor of revoking his
rights, based on what I feel should be his proper behavior.

Actually I think this should be expanded. To *VOTE* you must
qualify to own a gun.

This is not to say you must actually own one, but must pass all
the qualifications. If your mental condition, etc. is not good
enough for gun ownership, then no franchise.

It is clear that far more damage is now being done with ballots
than bullets.

If you actually read the bill, two things stand out: First, Tom's comments
are not based on anything in the bill, but must be from some neurotic freak
at one of the over-the-top gun nutz sites. Second, the tone of the bill and
all of its caveats makes it look like it was written by the NRA/ILA.

Then when you read the sanguine comments about the bill at the NRA site you
realize that in fact they probably did have a decisive hand in writing the
bill. That's what lobbies do, after all.

Aha! Dingell apparently is the link:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...041902437.html

And there's the hand of the NRA, as I suspected. They don't say that a
gun-related bill "restores rights" unless they wrote it themselves. g

Also, there is a hint in that article that GOA may be the source of the
neurotic freak who wrote the nonsense that started this thread.
