NRA Helps To Destroy The 2nd Amendment

The U.S. Senate recently approved by voice vote a draconian piece of gun control legislation that will add mentally defective people to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. The legislation which was already approved by the U.S. House of Representatives now will get sent to George W. Bush where he will likely sign the bill into law. The bill was proposed in response to the Virginia Tech rampage killing in which 32 people were killed by a deranged individual with a history of psychotropic drug use. The legislation will effectively disarm people who the government declares to be mentally defective. The legislation provides no exemptions for military veterans diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or people diagnosed with bogus metal disorders based off of junk science. People are allowed to protest their status as a government declared mental defective through a government proceeding. However, this means that individuals are guilty until proven innocent if they are caught wrongly in the system. The most disgusting part about this whole situation is the fact that the National Rifle Association (NRA) a so called pro second amendment lobbying group supported this legislation. The NRA has shown with their actions that they are actually a gun control lobby instead of a pro second amendment lobby. All gun owners who are affiliated with the NRA should choose to end their association with this fraudulent pro second amendment lobby.

Mentally ill individuals have been forbidden from owning firearms for awhile now but states lacked the funding to integrate these people into the National Instant Criminal Background Check System. This legislation provides the funding to give the government a mechanism to include mentally ill individuals into the system. Although the establishment cronies are selling this legislation as a reasonable step to keep everyone safe, it should be noted that this is a complete lie. Making it more difficult for people to own firearms does not help keep the public safe. Countries with draconian gun bans like the United Kingdom and Austrailia have seen a dramatic increase in crime as a result of their policies. The reason being, is that if you disarm the law abiding citizens the only people who will be armed will be criminals and government officials. Police can’t be everywhere to stop all crimes, therefore an individual given the right to defend themselves can take action on their own to prevent crime without intervention from the police.

The legislation does not provide exemptions for military veterans returning from the Middle East who have been diganosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. As a result, military veterans could end up getting caught in this system unable to purchase a gun. The human body is not meant to sustain multiple combat tours in life threatening situations and this has given rise to the number of veterans who are being diagnosed with this disorder. Soldiers are being sent over to Iraq on third, fourth and even in some cases fifth tours which has contributed to this. What all of this means is that individuals with military experience will be less likely to obtain guns which will limit people with in-house operational experience within the military to effectively rebel against the system.

Amazingly, the U.S. Senate approved this horrific gun control legislation by voice vote. Clearly, these people are too cowardly to put their name on the record stating that they actually voted for this legislation. This is proof that the establishment hates the freedoms provided to the people by the Constitution and are willing to do whatever it takes to destroy them. The Congress should be talking about eliminating the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, not passing legislation making it more powerful.

Even more ridiculous is that the NRA actually supported this legislation. What sort of pro second amendment lobby is the NRA if they openly support legislation that will give the government additional powers as to who can and cannot own a firearm? What sort of pro second amendment lobby is the NRA if they openly support legislation that will give the government powers to maintain a list of people saying they are guilty of being a mental defective forcing people to prove their innocence? Amazingly, opposition to the bill was removed after they agreed to allow people to challenge their mental defective status if they find themselves on a list. Considering the ineffective and bureaucratic mess the Federal government is, it will no doubt take a considerable amount of money and time to remove your name from this government list of mental defectives if you happen to find your name on the list. New disorders and illnesses are continually being invented based off of junk science which by fiat is expanding the number of people who are being given the mental defective label. It is hard to believe that the NRA thinks that this bill represents common sense when it is anything but.

In the Soviet Union the Communists used psychiatrists to label political opponents and anti-establishment intellectuals as mentally ill in order to lock them up in mental institutions. When the state starts labeling people as mental defectives in order to enfringe upon people’s rights, that opens up pandora’s box. What’s frightening about this is that the definition of a mental defective appears to be entirely vague. The government could at one point take the Soviet Union philosophy of labeling political opponents with a mental illness because they disagree with the government’s policies.

This legislation also opens up the door for the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives which in the past decade has grown substantially in size. The ATF will be the agency used by the government to enforce the insane policies set forth in this legislation. With these additional policies, they will no doubt use the additional personnel and resources that they now have at their disposal.

There is no question that without the NRA’s support this legislation would not have passed. The NRA has now proven themselves without question to be a pro gun control lobby and an enemy of the second amendment. The legislation which has now been approved in the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate will now be sent to George W. Bush where he will likely sign the legislation into law. The supreme court is also set to make a historic ruling on the second amendment pertaining to the lower court ruling which overturned the Washington DC gun ban. Considering what happened here with this legislation, we may unfortunately see the supreme court rule against the second amendment as well. The second amendment is being shredded into a million pieces and it is time people start getting mad at these criminal traitors in Congress for continuing their agenda of destroying the Bill of Rights.
