When President Obama announced his executive order laying the groundwork for gun control regulations, many heaved a sigh of relief that it was not more stringent or far reaching. And it is true that he could have been much more direct and authoritarian, but that would have invited immediate legal challenges, so the initiative is more subtle, but devious none the less.
Obama just created a system that will grow and spread to the states, and it will have the ability to establish a gun registry and prohibit hundreds of thousands, even millions, from the ability to buy a gun. Obama opined that federal federal anti-gun legislation will not happen during his presidency, but his actions will have the same effect.
The Gun Control Act of 1968 prohibits those who have been involuntarily committed or determined to be “mentally defective” from buying a gun. Subsequent legislation adds to the list “those who lack the mental capacity to contract or manage their own affairs,” even if that person does not represent a threat to anyone else. The National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) “mental defective file” currently includes about 150,000 individuals, including veterans who were not able to manage their own financial affairs. All of these individuals are precluded from owning a gun, even though there was no indication that they had a propensity for hurting someone.
Here is where Obama’s proposal becomes dangerous. The practice of placing someone on this list was arbitrary and did not even allow a hearing, but the total number of individuals on the list was fairly small. As a result of the president’s new orders, the Health and Human Services Department announced that it will modify the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and allow state health agencies to disclose personally identifiable information about “mentally defective” individuals directly to the NICS.
You can bet illegal, Muslim Obama is NOT finished trying to bring the USA down, and trying to usher in the new world order, using the UN. He wants to be the leader of the UN, call for martial law, then shariah law, using the army of illegals, refugees, the UN, etc., he already has in place. For a while, he MIGHT work with Hillary, IF she is elected. BUT, Trump will shut him down quickly, and that’s what Obama fears
They will have to take mine from my cold dead hands
Infringement is a violation of the Constitution. What else do you need to know, other than the fact it has been infringed and the globalists will not relent in their efforts to destroy America.

Ain’t gonna happen, obammy, you can stick that crazy notion up hitlerys ” bad wlrd” and see how that works. We,
the citizens of this country, have allowed you to run all over us for
way to long, what you need to do until President TRUMP takes up his office, just go sit down, and enjoy your last few days in office, and maybe look back over the last, almost 8 yrs. And realize what a complete failure you have been. Your are, and
there are millions of Americans that are like
minded, The worst person, to have ever held the office of the Presidentcie.
Maybe ground rule definitions for eligibility to run for public office should be restated so that anyone not eligible to buy a gun is not eligible to run for office.
A very plausible theory.
Good luck with that you communist garbage
Go away, who is this clown?
NO WAY THEY WILL DIEE
