It’s About To Get A Lot Harder To Buy A Gun!

(Before It's News)

Fellow Conservative,

Over the past two years, gun control groups have focused on restricting gun rights at the state level since they got nowhere in Congress. Now, the Obama administration is trying to implement these gun control initiatives nationwide without going through Congress!

Two years ago, the State of New York passed a draconian piece of gun control legislation known as the SAFE Act. The banned commonly owned semi-automatic rifles, forced grandfathered owners to register them, created a mental health database of prohibited persons, and mandated background checks for all gun purchases/transfers. The result was the creation of one of the strictest gun control regimes in the country.

Well, today I am going to tell you another Second Amendment horror story from New York…

Donald Montgomery is a veteran living in New York State. He also owns a number of registered firearms.

A few months ago, he went into the hospital complaining of insomnia. After going through the stress of moving, Mr. Montgomery was having trouble sleeping. So, he wanted to see if there was something a doctor could prescribe that would help.

He was diagnosed with insomnia but doctors also wrongfully diagnosed him with depression. They told him to follow up with doctors if his condition didn’t improve. He was eventually admitted VOLUNTARILY for an overnight sleep study.

Then, the police came for his firearms. NY State Police Officers showed up at Mr. Montgomery’s door and demanded that he relinquish his firearms.

Because a hospital worker wrongly labeled Mr. Montgomery as being involuntarily admitted to the mental ward, he was automatically barred from owning a gun under NY law.

This is what the liberals want. They want to give doctors and bureaucrats the ability to disarm Americans at will and that’s exactly what Obama is trying to accomplish!

Tell Congress to STOP the Obama administration from unilaterally changing our gun laws!

Earlier this past year, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) proposed a rule change that would significantly limit who would be allowed to own a gun.

The law is clear. Anyone who is “adjudicated as a mental defective” or “committed to a mental institution” is automatically disqualified from owning a gun. When the law was written in 1968, legislators wanted to make sure that deranged and crazy people were not able to purchase or obtain guns.

Being classified as mentally defective or being committed to a mental institution are both pretty big deals. It has to be to justify disenfranchising an individual of their Second Amendment rights. It is hard to meet these criteria.

Well, Obama’s ATF has proposed changing these definitions to include anyone with a mental or psychiatric condition at any point in their life. They want to change the definition of a prohibited person from a “mental defective” to “mentally unstable or irresponsible.”

That is NOT what the law says! The Obama administration and the ATF are changing the law to make it harder for people to get a gun and to allow the government to disarm more Americans.

Children diagnosed with ADD or adults suffering from things as simple as insomnia could be permanently disarmed under this proposed rule change. Just look at Donald Montgomery’s case. He had a stressful move and went to the hospital because he was having trouble sleeping. The next thing he knew, State Police Officers were knocking on his door demanding that he surrender his lawfully acquired weapons.

I thought medical records are supposed to be private, not shared across government agencies!

Soldiers coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan will be disarmed if they seek out mental health professionals. Heck, this is already happening. We hear all the time about a soldier or veteran who has been disarmed because they need help completing certain tasks, like paying bills.

You might remember that these changes were announced as an executive order last year. Well, in a year’s time, we’ve gone from this being just a proposal to the ATF formally filing it as a new regulation!

Tell Congress to STOP the Obama administration from unilaterally changing our gun laws!

As “common sense” as this change may seem at first glance, this is exactly the kind of executive order that we have always feared. Gun control always starts out with the Democrats saying that they only want felons and the mentally ill to be barred from owning guns. Once the gun control is passed, the Democrats then start to expand the law, using their power to pass new laws to make law-abiding citizens instant felons.

With this new rule change, President Obama has claimed the authority to determine who is allowed to own a gun and who is prohibited. It doesn't matter whether this clarification is “common sense,” the President simply doesn't have the authority to dictate who loses Constitutional rights. This is the most dangerous precedent of Obama’s presidency and one of the most threatening expansions of Executive power in history.

This is why the Founders included “shall not be infringed” in the Second Amendment. They knew a day would come when a tyrannical leader would try to dictate who is and who isn’t allowed to own weapons. I regret to inform you that the day the Founders feared has finally arrived.

People always challenge us to name one thing that Obama has done unconstitutionally. This is definitely one of them. Obama and the ATF have to be stopped!

This is EXACTLY why the Founding Fathers included the phrase “shall not be infringed” in the Second Amendment. Except the Founders aren’t around anymore to protect our natural rights… Only you can force Congress to STOP King Obama from illegally enacting gun control!

Tell Congress to STOP the Obama administration from unilaterally changing our gun laws!

  • It is clear the people in the corporate gv could care less about committing treason anymore or violating their oath to office.

    • Actually, they couldn’t care less about committing treason.

  • If you live in NY, NJ, WI, CT, MA, MI, DE, PA, RI, ME, MD, IL, OH, IN….you live under house arrest by those who purport to know what is best for you whether you agree or not. On the other side of the nation we have CA, WA, OR (NV, NM are iffy). Excise all of these metastasizing cancers some call states and voila!!! we may actually have a Republic again!

    Ironic that the Civil War is long over but yet the southern states still “allow” for the most liberty of any states in this supposed union.

    RevWarII is not going to be pretty.

    • In Kansas the state legislateor passed a law called the 2nd amendment amendment, simply put we kansans recognize the 2nd amendment as law!! In kansas anyone who can legally buy a gun, can apply for a special permit even allowing for the purchase of a ( Fully Automatic firearm ). I know that Oklahoma and Texas are makimng strong stands as well. In the Revolutionary war and most other wars their is usually only 3 percent that Actually fight. Well i think this time it is going to be different. This IS the Information age, and nowadays most people are now WISE too the governments actions against them. I think the government fears that ( Even though as some put it , they have Superior firepower, True Americans and loyalists will win if for no other reason that Shear numbers. If 6 percent of Americans fight THIS fight were looking at roughly 20 million who say IVE HAD ENOUGH!!! In case their is ( TROLLS ), reading this , ill just let u know this, In the rural areas of Kansas and Missouri, most people are spending about 20 percent of their budgets on AMMO! They know whats about too happen, and even if they dont participate in the actual battles, they will give their guns and ammo over to those who do!! Personally im waiting on Jesus, but will Fiercly defend family and dear friends if i have no choice . If you think thats not christian, all i can say is Look at Jesus Disciples, They were armed fully with sword and spear, yet Jesus didnt ever tell them too ( Disarm )!!! Get ready its gonna be bad when it does break out. gl and GB

      • “If a man hath no sword, then let him sell his cloak and buy one”.

        Yeshoua has been dust many centuries, he isn’t coming back to help you, you want to live a little longer? Lock and load.
        In the end it all goes out the same way.

    • The Civil War never ended, it just went underground.

  • Did you know psychology is not based on science and that’s why libs adapted it as their mouthpiece for any kind of issues?

    You can make up anything with Fraud, er Freud!

    There is no physiological connection with their claimed diagnosis of said person. NONE whatsoever to base giving them drugs or lobotomies!

    it’s completely made up like having a negro sodomite from Kenya as president. If I said that to you ten years ago you would laff me to scorn!

    • It is widely know that Freud was a coke head. So, if your still stuck in Freuds Day…..Your forty years and a 10,000 miles behind the times.

      Consider the book written by a sober man, written in the late sixties or seventies, I don’t remember which, titled ‘The Road Less Traveled,’ by M. Scott Peck.

      The book stresses that most neurosis begin in childhood due to trauma, and the lies we tell ourselves over and over….which lead directly to mangled reasoning or no reasoning at all.

      In other words….it teaches honesty in all things.

      • Actually, that is nothing more than metaprogramming, done all the time 24/7/365, no matter what the age. “Truth” is in the eye of the master of the game.

    • Damn, you actually started to sound smart right there, and then you go and throw in “Kenyan Sodomite Negro” and ruined the whole comment! lol

      I’m pretty sure we all know how you feel about Obama, but i’m not sure the fascination with the “Negro” part. Every comment you make always includes “Negro”. Is there some underlying racial issues you’re struggling with? Do black people really bother you that much? What does the color of Obama’s skin have to do with this article?

      • Well said Deal. You don’t suppose this Slime guy is just a compulsive jerk who keeps saying things to wind people up when behind his keyboard? Maybe he doesn’t have a thing against Obama or any folks with more eumelanin type melanin in their skin?

        I think it’s all an act. Begs the bigger question… Why?

      • Actually, he is a Mullatto since his mother was a Caucasian.

  • They will TAKE OUR ARMS!

  • I guess it’s time to buy the Barret 50BMG.

    TO all of you EMPLOYEES who call yourselves “officials” I would like to say something…

    • Rest in pieces….

  • That is quiet alright, then I will just have to become a criminal and not adhere to any laws you try to shove down this boys throat. It seems to work for the criminals as well as governments. LOL

  • Hey Rift BBQ at my house on Sunday, your invited to the sacrificial alter as Honorary guest.
    We have the charcoal and lighter fluid, just bring yourself.

    • ill bring gas just in case Rift doesnt ignite fast enough. also ill bring the Chips and dip, yum yum :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

  • Vets shouldn’t be allowed to buy guns!
    Look at this guy!

  • They can make all the gun laws and changes they want. The fact of the matter is Supply and Demand. People who seek to purchase a firearm are now doing so without dealing with a FFL dealer and without going through a background check. It would not surprise me one bit if firearms and ammunition surpass the Cartel Drug industry.

    • If you have the $s, you can have the guns, simple as that. Make drugs illegal and what happend? Now you are on the losing end of a “drug war” which acheived absolutely nothing except to make certain segments of the population richer. Same with weapons.

  • James Smith

    Wherever you live…. and it’s hard for you to buy a gun there, you’re living in the wrong, taken over and conquered, state…. at all costs…. I suggest you should move away…. as fast as you can.. /alternative/2014/08/america-is-under-attack-and-the-american-people-know-it-too-3015792.html
