Remember when? Trump Signs Bill Revoking Obama-Era Gun Checks for People With Mental Illnesses

A blast from the past.

Trump Signs Bill Revoking Obama-Era Gun Checks for People With Mental Illnesses

The new law nullifies an Obama-backed rule that added people with mental illnesses to the national background check database.

President Donald Trump quietly signed a bill into law Tuesday rolling back an Obama-era regulation that made it harder for people with mental illnesses to purchase a gun.

The rule, which was finalized in December, added people receiving Social Security checks for mental illnesses and people deemed unfit to handle their own financial affairs to the national background check database.

Had the rule fully taken effect, the Obama administration predicted it would have added about 75,000 names to that database.

President Barack Obama recommended the now-nullified regulation in a 2013 memo following the mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, which left 20 first graders and six others dead. The measure sought to block some people with severe mental health problems from buying guns.

So with all these people having mental problems pulling triggers, thank Trump for this.
Would that law have stopped the recent shootings?

:dunno:

"Had the rule fully taken effect, the Obama administration predicted it would have added about 75,000 names to that database."

We've had 250 mass shootings in 218 days. So I think it would have.
How many of those mass shooting took place in states that have heavily restricted gun laws?
You do realize the Southerland Springs Chruch mass shooter passed all background checks because those in control of background checks did not do their job.
 
Not to worry. Now the cowards in Congress and the fake conservative in the White House mean to bring us "red flag" laws. Under Trump's proposal, you could have your guns confiscated if your neighbor says you seem a little "off".

Yep. But you forgot to mention the irony of ironies, namely, Trump recommended, in his singularly mendacious speech after the El Paso and Dayton shootings, that mentally incapacitated people be prevented from owning / buying guns.

And no, Trump did not say, though he should have, that the desire provately to own an AR15 (or similar) should be enough of a sign of mental defectiveness to shut that person out of the gun market for life.

Why should wanting to privately own an AR-15 bar you from owning guns?

When you start taking rights away from those that seek help for mental illness then you would have many less to seek help for mental illness

Yeah, just **** that 5th and 14th amendment due process thing. You dumb ****, it was already permissible to add people adjudicated as mentally unfit to the NICS data base as a prohibited person. Your mulatto messiah tried to sidestep due process which is required to deny anyone their constitutional rights.

.

Obama is not the Messiah.

Neither is Trump.

And Trump killed an order that could have prevented the killings.


Name one mass shooter maobamas end run around the Constitution would have stopped. Come on commie, enlighten everyone. LMAO

Except that wasn't about mental illness it was about people receiving Social Security who might need a little help managing their finances being called mentally ill
 
Obama pushes to extend gun background checks to Social Security
the Obama administration is pushing to ban Social Security beneficiaries from owning guns if they lack the mental capacity to manage their own affairs,
Wouldn't even you who never says anything good about Obama call that a good start?

It's not mental illness.

So when not being able to balance a checkbook is listed in the DSM 5 as a sign of mental illness you might have a leg to stand on

Perhaps there are more serious cases than the one you mentioned Don't you agree we must get guns out of the hands of those not mentally able to use them properly? Think most of America does
 
Shitstain obama wanted that law because it specifically targeted the elderly to remove any possible means of self defense.

There is nothing to prove that a person who needs a little help managing his finances is too so mentally unstable that their rights have to be taken away.

We have a process to label someone mentally ill and when that process is followed and a person is adjudicated to be mentally ill or a danger to himself or others the government can restrict his access to guns,

But arbitrary bullshit isn't the way to do it

You cannot confiscate someones private property without due process.
 
15th post
He read the part "shall not be infringed" correctly.

Others should get back to their third world shit holes where it is "shall be infringed".

They could have stopped Nikolas Cruz except for obamas school policy that forbid the police from arrest Cruz.

and who gets to make that choice who is mentally able to use guns properly? some liberal gun-hating psychiatrist that will take the guns away from the over 46 million Americans that experiences mental illness in a given year? 1 in 5 adults suffer from one form or another mental illness from simple depression to anxiety
so how many do you think will forgo seeking help for mental conditions like depression or anxiety if they know they will get put on some list and rights taken away?
