I remember my great grandad telling stories when he came back from WWII - not sure if it’s an urban legend or not but Eleanor Roosevelt suggested putting the armed forces in camps when they came back because of their exposure to all that violence ... had to be rehabilitated before they would be allowed back into society ....

That’s the most ludicrous bunch of bs I have ever read lately. You’re either stupid or lied to by the GOA. The GOA has never, and I mean never accomplished a single thing in their entire history. That is a documented fact. This will be the first time and if they can do it I will applaud their effort.
Now there is the question regarding part of this bill that would have reinstated some people’s Rights from as far back as the 1960’s. Is the GOA going to see that part of this bill is passed?

We all know that you’re the NRA’s chief propagandist here.
Save your breath.

“The National Rifle Association (NRA) supports the bill, which its board member and House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman John Dingell (D-Mich.) helped to craft....”
Shame on the NRA for falling for this trojan horse Dingell. Dingell was the last holdout to the Gun Control Act of 1968, also.....then he sold out.
Do you know that the “new” Detroit Veterans Hospital is named for him?

staff the NRA, without consulting the membership, have now made a series of strange and dangerous alliances with the likes of Chuck Schumer, Carolyn McCarthy, and Pat Leahy. Schumer is a smarmy bastard.
All he's gonna need to launch a full frontal assault on the Second Amendment is for The Beast to occupy the Oval Office.
Which is another reason why I'm stocking up on black guns and ammo.

Yeah, no kidding. And the GOA supporters still lay claim they have the best group fighting gun control. Have you ever noticed they can never report exactly what the GOA has ever done since they started collecting member’s money?
I told one supporter that I would love to work for him/her. All I would have to do is send emails once in awhile explaining what a great job I was doing instead of actually doing something.
How can someone state a no compromise position if they have never done anything?

"

Worse- if this bill passes and becomes law, what will the effect be on the willingness of young men, especially those from families with a tradition of hunting, to enlist for any of the armed forces where they might be called to real combat?
To: Elsiejay
Even if this is a “load of crap”, we had better slow the bill down long enough so we all can understand the consequences fully.
To: theBuckwheat
Probably part of the real intent of the bill.

I was a kid when the WWII vets were coming home and the liberals were all wringing their hands that there would be a bloodbath because these guys “were used to all that violence.”
Later on these libs complained that the 50s were “boring”. It seemed that all those “bloodthirsty” veterans wanted nothing more than peace and tranquility as they tried to make up for four lost years of their lives.

There isn’t anything in this bill that would have stopped veterans from losing their Rights. A doctor’s, Veterans Administration or psychologist’s diagnosis isn’t a adjudication or commitment under the law. Since 1968, some veterans lost their Rights to own a gun and there hasn’t been a procedure for that Right to be restored. This bill would have corrected that oversight.
So the GOA stops a law that would have actually restored some people’s rights if they would have had this law in place. They get to finally claim they did something for the first time and the NRA isn’t accused of giving weapons to lunatics like the media would have claimed.
Sounds like a win/win to me.
