Barack Obama is once again circumventing the legislative process in order to push his administration’s unpopular leftist agenda. First, it was illegal immigration, then transgender bathrooms. This time, it’s guns.
Earlier this year, the White House announced new policies for those receiving social security benefits in conjunction with the president’s January 5th executive order on gun ownership. When it was released, few seemed to notice that the order allowed the administration to withhold Second Amendment rights from those who collect social security.
The move makes little logical sense. Social Security beneficiaries have never proven themselves as particularly violent or incapable of gun ownership. Instead, it seems as if this is part of Obama’s larger plan to slowly and surreptitiously restrict gun ownership whenever and wherever possible.
The administration was likely hoping that this slow creep of new regulations would go unnoticed until it was too late to be repealed. Fortunately, the watchful eyes of conservative media caught them in the act.
See Obama’s secret gun ban on the next page:
Doesn’t say disabled except mentally incompetent unable to handle their affairs, and a danger to themselves and or others, that does not include all social security recipients.
Congress–get off your butts and arrest this President for Treason!!
Are you people too ignorant to read? The article is about stopping people who are mentally ill or incompetent from owning guns. If a person is unable to make decisions about health care for themselves should they be able to make decisions about using a gun. Try reading before reacting for a change.
I believe this applies only to Social Security recipients who have a “representative payee” who manages their benefits for them. It is still wrong. Just because you can’t manage money sufficiently to budget a monthly check and pay your bills all on your own doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have the right to self defense. He is picking off one small group at a time, targeting the people least likely or able to speak up for themselves. Trump will get rid of all of Obama’s illegal executive orders. If Hillary is elected, the country (and the Bill of Rights) is finished.
not his right to suspend our rights. He isn,t our King !!!! Hope this report is false.
COME AND GET$#%&!@*WIPE.
So he allows 75 000 records of mentally incompetent, mentally ill, people who are a danger to themselves put in the database to prevent them from buying guns. They also have judicial paths to prove they are not nut jobs So they can buy guns. Read the order. It has nothing to do with Social Security Recipients who are everyday citizens.
Really, and don’t you think it would be all over the news if this was done. Come on stop sending this c**p around. It’s all made up.
Just one more despicable act.
Time to impeach this traitor!!!
