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.”

Obama does not want people who know how to use them have them !
Why do you think they don’t want them armed- because they will NOT support the Muslim in the White House that’s determined to destroy AMERICA and give it to the MUSLIMS!
Maybe they are nut cases like most of you posting.
Gary Watson’s comment is true, and has thus been removed by the censors?
smoke and mirrors… all it is a way to try and disarme Americans.
I think these posts are so funny. The sad part is you’re serious.
time to fight back
Totally unconscionable!
The VA needs to go! What a waste of money! Your military VA ID Card should get you medical $#%&!@*istance at any hospital or doctor and they send the government the bill! Illegals get better health care than our veterans!
The government is full of Bull$#%&!@*. He just want to make our Armed forces and police ineffective so he can introduce his Martial Law. Wait and see. Why is he still walking the floors of the White House when it’s clearly unacceptable?.
