no, the proposal is that a person that doent have control of their own SS doesn't have a sound mind, and therefor is disqualified to purchase a gun, and I think by extension from owning a gun.Originally posted by Craizie View PostDoes this cover welfare, too?
The proposal wouldn't have stopped any domestic terrorism, Columbine, Aurora, and probably wouldn't have stopped Newtown since he used his mom's firearms.

Read some history before blaming 1 lame duck president. Hell, look within your own profession.Originally posted by svo855 View PostHe is the HNIC at the moment so I credit all of the misdeeds to him.
The only power of any consequence he has is E.O. and veto.Last edited by likeitfast55; 07-20-2015, 08:09 AM.
