The Obama administration is in overdrive these days. They’re trying to pack as much of Obama’s agenda into his final weeks as possible.
While no one was looking, they just took gun rights away from people on SSI benefits.
PJ Media reports:
Obama Administration Yanks Second Amendment Rights from SSI Recipients
Last week, the Obama administration put the finishing touches on a new policy that would deprive recipients of disability insurance and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) of their Second Amendment rights. The administration will now characterize those citizens as “mental defectives,” thereby having their ability to own a firearm subject to the federal Gun Control Act.
Supplemental Security Income helps blind, disabled, and elderly people with little to no income. Previously, it was understood that “mentally defective” referred to one’s mental health. Citizens who have been institutionalized against their will are restricted from owning a firearm. The new definition of “mentally defective” has nothing to do with being mentally ill.

Obama Administration Finalizes Social Security Gun Ban
On Monday the Obama administration finalized a Social Security gun ban that could prevent “tens of thousands” of law-abiding elderly citizens from purchasing guns for self-defense.
Breitbart News reported this ban on July 18, 2015, when it was learned that the Obama administration was creating a ban on gun purchases that would apply to Social Security recipients who needed help managing their finances. The Los Angeles Times reported that the ban would be sweeping; that it would cover those who are unable to manage their own affairs for a multitude of reasons–from “subnormal intelligence or mental illness” to “incompetency,” an unspecified “condition,” or “disease.”
They’re just determined to undermine gun rights any way they can before they’re out of power.
TO LATE BITCHES. IM ARMED TO THE TEETH……COME GET EM……
last i checked Social Security cant make law, and no one has the authority to remove an unalienable right , so this is only for those that think they can be ruled by illegitimate people
Civil Disobedience comes to mind
and messing with the possible terminally ill really isnt a F-ken smart move
i know right?

That’s what ghost guns are for.
