Trump Backs “Red Flag” Laws That Could Impact Veteran Gun Ownership
BY Herschel Smith
5 years, 3 months ago
Such laws could be used to “identify mentally disturbed individuals who may commit acts of violence and make sure those people not only get treatment, but, when necessary, involuntary confinement,” Trump said. “Mental illness and hatred pulls the trigger, not the gun.”

“To put this in perspective, there are over 1.6 million disabled veterans with a service-connected adjudication by VA of mental illness, including one million veterans with PTSD,” he said.
Let me assist Military.com with their article headline. “Trump backs red flag laws that WILL impact veteran gun ownership.”
Because. Forecasting the future, witchcraft, sorcery, wicked divination by community witchdoctors who may as well howl at the moon at midnight and throw chicken bones over their shoulder.
There. Fixed.

What Washington fears most is action for their willful negligence. This is what gun control is about. They fear you. After WWI in the height of the Depression they passed the ’34 gun control. With Vietnam turning ugly and protesters starting to make a voice heard in Washington, among which were grumblings from trained returning armies, came the ’68 gun control. The general government isn’t starting weapons seizures but for any reason other than that they fear you. This is what all the talk of mental health is about, it’s directed first at veterans, again returning from wars, this time endless and unjust and obviously with no intent to win, and Feinstein admitted as much stating that all veterans are mentally ill and should not have guns. This is the truth of the mask slipping that goes to the core of their fear.
Separating men from the means to make war is an act of war. This is a well established fact of doctrine and history. In further fact, it’s a primary tactic, such as bombing munitions factories in WWII Germany. Gun control is no different.

Not anything close to scientific but just looking at some of the polls on the big gun blogs, I would guess that if he signs anything like this Trump loses between 6 and 10 million votes.
