Muslims barred for our safety; crazy people handed firearms

Congress blocks rule barring mentally impaired from guns



That, my friends, is Trump's America. Fuck logic, common sense, and fuck life. Tell us again how it's not about xenophobia, and tell us again about "draining the swamp" while handing the NRA lobby another billion dollars.

They're American Citizens. Their rights are protected by the Constitution. Non-US Citizens aren't afforded US Constitutional protections. You may not like that, but that's the reality.

These people aren't smart. They're emotional and easily influenced. What else do you expect? A reasonable, thought out approach?

Along with the fact that enemies to liberty can so easily make false claims against people. The old insane asylum trick was used a lot to steal property from widows here back when they had laws that would allow theft like that.

Gun Grabber butthurt. Nothing more, nothing less. Movin on...

Yahoo news left out some details.

"Under a policy some called too broad, the Social Security Administration was required to report to the FBI people receiving these payments and diagnosed with certain mental health conditions as ineligible to buy guns. Being unfit to handle personal finances was considered a factor to make the determination.

But the regulation had the potential to bar people who weren’t a danger to others. That’s why the Senate just rolled back this regulation by a vote of 57-43. The House passed the measure last month."

In other words, just because grandpa is getting help balancing his checkbook doesn't mean he ought not be allowed to protect himself.

The alleged "rule" would have denied Americans their Constitutional rights without cause. Americans should be ashamed to have supported such fascist bullshit. Would never have gotten past a Supreme court challenge anyway.

It was a dirty backdoor Gun Grabber scam. Period, end of story.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Have you ever attempted to acquire a firearm? I doubt it. You know nothing about the process. You may not like it, but Citizens' rights are protected by the Constitution. However, foreigners attempting to enter the US are not entitled to US Constitutional protections. So the OP's analogy is Apples & Oranges nonsense.

Yes, and even his rights were protected by the Constitution. Freedom & Liberty can be complicated. It isn't a perfect system. But it's the best humanity has.

Oh look, another leftist lying through his fucking teeth, must be a day ending in "y"

No scumbag, Congress did not stop barring the mentally ill. You Stalinist in your war on the elderly declared that anyone who needed help with financial paperwork was "mentally ill."

{By a vote of 57-43 vote, the Senate has overturned an Obama-era rule that stripped gun rights from some Social Security recipients. Some media outlets would have you think the law was intended to keep guns out of the hands of the mentally impaired, but a closer look shows that it also unfairly targeted elderly who simply needed help with financial paperwork.}

They don't care. They're Gun Grabbers. This was just a dirty backdoor attempt to thwart the Constitution.

ummm even when he became a convicted criminal?

Point is there are reasonable CONDITIONS to gun ownership rights.

This is not a discussion on Constitutionality, but on the REASONABLE.

As in reasonable limitation of a well established mental illness.

'Reasonable Conditions' can lead you down a dangerous slippery-slope. Always err on the side of the Constitution. Once you start straying from it, things can rapidly go downhill.

Kinda like not giving guns to convicted criminals is a dangerous slippery-slope?

Ridiculous. Yes, there could be reasonable standards.
