TAKING THE NEXT STEP
MichaelConnelly.Jigsy.com
For over two years I have the United States Justice
Foundation (www.usjf.net)
has been working with veterans trying to help them
protect their Fifth and Second Amendment rights. The
more we learned the worse it got. Then about a year
ago we started filing legal memorandums opposing new
rules and regulations being proposed by federal
agencies like HHS and BATF. I began to see a pattern
emerging that indicated to me that the all-out
effort to disarm American veterans was only the
beginning for the Obama administration.
I
predicted that the next group under attack would be
senior Americans on Social Security and I began
talking about this on my radio show, in my speeches
to various groups, and in my blog. For example, on
May 15th of this year I did an article
titled “Expanding the Assault”. In the last few
paragraphs of that article I stated:
“Following the lead of an Executive Oder issued by
Obama, the Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS) is directly violating the federal HIPAA law
that was passed by Congress to protect the privacy
of medical records. It is releasing the records to
the FBI of anyone who has ever told their physician
they were feeling depressed, even if never treated,
and anyone who has taken certain drugs for things
like PTSD, ADD, or ADHD, among others. All of these
people will eventually be added to the NICS list.
The
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (BATF) is
issuing new regulations broadening the definition of
people who are mentally ill and dangerous to include
anyone, including children from ever legally owning
or purchasing firearms because they were ever sent
by a judge to be examined by a psychiatrist or
psychologist. Unfortunately, such actions are often
taken by family court judges when there are divorce
and custody battles going on. In the vast majority
of cases, there is no finding of mental illness, but
under the new BATF regulations that won’t matter.
The people will be banned for life from owning a
firearm.
Then
there are the actions of the Department of Justice
(DOJ) threatening banks and credit card companies
with investigations and sanctions if they continue
to do business with any entity selling firearms or
ammunition such as gun stores or pawn shops. This is
another case of criminal extortion by the Federal
government.
What
is next? Will you have to surrender your firearms to
keep your social security, or to stay on Medicare?
Will you have to certify that neither you nor any of
you employees own firearms in order to get a
contract with the Federal government? The groundwork
is clearly being laid for all of this to happen.
After all, we are living in Obamaland.”
I
confess to have met with some skepticism as has been
the case with my claims about the veteran
situations. Now the LA Times has confirmed all of it
in a recent article:
http://www.latimes.com/nation/politics/la-na-gun-law-20150718-story.html#page=1
We have already confirmed that seniors going
on Medicare are being asked by their doctors if they
have firearms in their homes. Seniors are going to
be subjected to having their right to privacy
violated by having their medical records turned over
to federal bureaucrats who will then declare them
incompetent to handle their own financial affairs
for a variety of spurious reasons.
Once
an incompetence determination is made their names
will then be turned over to the FBI that will
declare them “mentally defective to the point of
being a danger to themselves or others” and prohibit
them from purchasing or owning firearms. This has
already happened to several hundred thousand
veterans. Millions more are at risk and now millions
of non-veteran seniors will be affected.
It
won’t stop there. Under these criteria students who
have federally guaranteed loans will be targets as
will millions of other people who receive some types
of payments from the federal government. Who is
next, SSI beneficiaries, people who receive
subsidies under Obamacare, Medicaid recipients, food
stamp recipients, employees of companies that have
federal contracts? In other words, the Second,
Fourth and Fifth Amendment rights virtually all
Americans are now under attack.
As
we are doing with veterans, we will advise anyone
affected by this at no charge. You may contact me at
Michael@usjfmail.net. America needs to wake up.
We are all at risk. We are in a fight for our very
existence.
