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.”

Because they fear us that’s why.
They’re certainly welcome to the attempt… why should the government start paying attention to the Cons$#%&!@*ution now? I seem to remember when I sworn in to “protect and defend the Cons$#%&!@*ution against ALL enemies foreign AND domestic…” (emphasis mine and necessary only to those who fail to understand the concepts of our oath).
By disarming the honored, you open the door to arm only the criminals and tyrants.
The whole real reason that we were given the right to keep and bare arms. So that a tyrannical government cannot force itself upon the people. Gun rights are not just for hunting or personal protection, that was not the first thought. That was clearly understood. It is to have enough firepower and protection from an intrusive and abusive government. One that would do such things as this, so uncons$#%&!@*utional and illegal.
obama admin is trying to disarm the very group of people who knows how to use them. I can really some sinister plans and reasons why obama is doing this.
No, they aren’t. The evil s$#%&!@* that is “Truth and Action” is just spreading more paranoid lies that their sheep are all too eager to eat.
So, essentially, Phil is saying the PRESIDENT should be $#%&!@*inated. And his comment hasn’t been deleted. That’s very telling of this group’s “standards.”
GIVE AN EXAMPLE! Obama has NOT committed “treason,” or any of the other c**p you accuse him of.
Quite literally nothing you said was true. Nothing. Also, it’s not “anti-American” for someone to have a policy that disagrees with your own.
‘Words such as ‘unless’ and ‘except’ don’t exist within the amendment. There should be no list in the first place and not federal background checks either.’
so you want convicted felons, domestic abusers, and all others who can’t p$#%&!@* a background check to have guns now?
