Senator Charles E. Grassley (R-IA) recently sent Eric Holder a letter when he was Attorney General demanding to know why the VA has been placing veterans on a federal gun ban list – labeling them as “mentally defective”.
Grassley wrote, “The National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) is effectively a national gun ban list and placement on the list precludes the ownership and possession of firearms. According to the Congressional Research Service, as of June 1, 2012, 99.3% of all names reported to the NICS list’s “mental defective” category were provided by the Veterans Administration (VA) even though reporting requirements apply to all federal agencies. 1 And that percentage remained virtually unchanged as of April 2013.2 Given the numbers, it is essential to ensure that the process by which the VA reports names to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for placement on the NICS list recognizes and protects the fundamental nature of veterans’ rights under the Second Amendment.”

Of course, Holder and Obama will illegally sell thousands of high powered $#%&!@*ault rifles to the Mexican Drug Cartels, but our own veterans must have their firearms confiscated, and their Cons$#%&!@*utional Rights violated and trampled !
Let me guess THE CRIMINAL>>>ERIC HOLDER is not on that list…but a bunch of veterans are
Truth is… America’s disarmament started many many decades ago. But let’s overlook that shall we? What part of the 4th amendment hasn’t been infringed? There is not anything left of the 4th amendment BUT infringements.
All successful dictators disarmed the people in order to protect their power grab
Thats Bull$#%&!@*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and the sheeple do not care as they want their free stuff, and are willing to sell out the consi$#%&!@*ution if need be.
but forget about illegals, muslims and terrorists
wrong again Holder
I don’t know what grounds they have to stand on, if the vet was honorably discharged and used weapons in the service, they should still be eligible to own weapons in civilian life. They are better trained than most civilian gun owners. If the government is using the mental argument, then they should be paying for treatment, instead of denying it. By cutting VA benefits and then doing this, they are total hypocrites.
Because they are trained in combat
