Champ: Gun-Ban For “subnormal intelligence, mental illness, or incompetency”
2016-01-05
[Breitbart] The White House released a fact-sheet Jan. 4 which previews the executive gun control Obama will unveil Tuesday and one aspect of the new controls is the inclusion of "information from the Social Security Administration in the background check system about beneficiaries who are prohibited from possessing a firearm.
About time! Everyone knows elderly Social Security recipients are the cause of much of the gun related crime in this country.

#15  Comment pilfered from Instapundit..with appreciation to commenter 'tailwind'

Cognitive dissonance, Democrat Style:

1996 - President Clinton significanly reduces the number off Federal Fiream Licensees to prevent non-storefront FFL's from having guns shipped directly to their home to add to their personal collection.

2016 - President Obama proposes to significantly increase the number of FFL's to ensure that background checks take place. These FFL's will then be able to have guns shipped directly to their home to add to their personal collection.

#14  DV, I admire your patience. I always either change the channel, turn off the TV or leave the room whenever Baraq is on the screen.

#13  Just listened to Obama's speach.

Also heard he refereed to himself 76 times.

What a narcissistic prick.

#12  I propose that all of us here perform a public service. Report all the kooks on the various progressive blogs so as to ensure that none of them will get guns. They won't have guns anyway (they're kooky leftists, after all) but this will get them into the government files, and that sort of thing has a life of its own.

I didn't make the rules, Mr. Alinsky did, but I can play by them...

#11  Just listened to Obama's speach. Most of what he proses is already law. More noise to distract from his middle east failures.

#10  Reminds me of the '50s Soviets - anyone protesting gov't was declared crazy and sent to an "asylum". Apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

#8  I see the SSA (Social Security) reporting all on their list receiving disability payments will be forwarded to the ATF for cross check against previous background checks OK'd for gun purchases.
The ATF (famous for the Fast and Furious program) will notify those now ineligible persons to turn in their weapons or else. Hilarity ensues.

#4  Interesting direction they are headed. It may be found to be unconstitutional as it discriminates against 'Autism sufferers' which is a growing SSI disability entitlement in some precincts.

#3  Does subnornal intelligence include those who aren't nearly as intelligent as they think themselves? As for using Social Security information to determine those mentally incompetent to manage their own affairs, ie. senile (and perhaps also mentally retarded or otherwise mentally handicapped), I recall how well Obamacare is at sharing information between government computers at the click of a mouse.
