Re: Obama pushes to extend gun background checks to Social S

In today's America, those unelected bureaucrats make far more laws than Congress does - 173,000 new regulations, which have the force of law, in a recent 10-year period. Actual laws passed by Congress is a small fraction of that.

When you renew your CHL, do they run a NICS check?
They do a much more thorough back ground check that includes finger prints which alleviates the need for the standard NICS check.
They don't do fingerprints on renewals unless something has changed.
I'm not sure they do a full background check on a renewal. Anyone know for sure?

If they do a NICS check that would hit the Federal database and trigger a refusal based on SS data.
The question is, does the Texas background check also hit that database?

Re: Obama pushes to extend gun background checks to Social S

I wonder how often a senior citizen whose mental acuity has deteriorated to the point where they can't manage their own daily affairs .... goes out shopping for firearms. I mean, how often will this be an issue?

This is just part of a larger effort to expand the use of all available data to effect societal change;

Re: Obama pushes to extend gun background checks to Social S

Saw this on another forum:

LA Times is reporting that the Obama Administration has taken executive action to expand NICS denials to Social Security recipients who have had a fiduciary appointed to receive their benefits. In essence, the same policies that the VA has been using to add people to NICS will now be applied to everyone on Social Security.

Started in March, just announced Friday

This will effectively add 4.2 million people to NICS.

Obama pushes to extend gun background checks to Social Secur

"Seeking tighter controls over firearm purchases, the Obama administration is pushing to ban Social Security beneficiaries from owning guns if they lack the mental capacity to manage their own affairs"

Guess who gets to decide of one is able to manage one's affairs?
