YOU KNOW THEY WANT YOUR GUNS — HERE’S JUST ANOTHER WAY THEY PLAN ON TAKING THEM
You know they want your guns, be it through litigation, outright banning them, or just plain old making you a “Prohibited Person”.
When Congress passed the Gun Control Act of 1968 it codified several reasons that an American citizen could lose their right to keep and bear arms or ammunition. Most of you are familiar with BATFE Form 4473 and the Yes / No questions that must be answered before a Federal Firearms Licensee can legally transfer possession of any gun to you.
One of those questions is whether you have been adjudicated mentally incompetent or have been involuntarily committed to a mental institution. The Washington Examiner, along with several other news organizations, recently reported that the FBI, US Secret Service, and ICE have worked together to have roughly sixty citizens voluntarily sign away their constitutional rights. That’s despite them having no legal basis for those persons to do so. Part of being mentally incompetent means you cannot legally enter into contracts or agreements. How then can someone be deemed mentally incompetent if they are able to waive a constitutional right?
To quote the Washington Examiner:
The latest revelation comes after the Washington Examiner reported earlier this month that the FBI coordinated secretly with hospitals and medical centers to strip at least five U.S. citizens of their gun rights.
Following that report, several watchdog groups raised concerns over the FBI’s actions in collaboration with private and public medical facilities.
“Frustratingly, every day, there seems to be a new revelation of the FBI working to violate the rights of American citizens,” Tom Jones, president of the American Accountability Foundation, a conservative watchdog, told the Washington Examiner, calling on the Republican-led Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government to launch an investigation.
In Washington and around the country, there are hundreds of reports of people being targeted for prosecution; specifically, those who hold differing opinions from the leftist in power. This is just another example of our now “two-tiered” justice system. Hopefully Representative Jim Jordan, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee can follow through on his promise to get to the bottom of this.
