....... LOL I just checked this out on SNOPES and they report it as being absolutely false and that the origin is a satire article that is being circulated as fact. However ..... when you read the very last paragraph of the article ..... it says this .......

".....In July 2015, news accounts genuinely reported that President Obama was pushing to ban a subset of Social Security beneficiaries from owning guns if they lacked the mental capacity to manage their own affairs due to "marked subnormal intelligence, or mental illness, incompetency, condition, or disease."

...... In other words ..... it's actually partially true. That said ....... It does appear that the administration is moving swiftly to take away the right to bear arms from certain members of our society .... including Military Vets etc. This is a back door way to castrate or nullify the 2nd Amendment.

The Public Safety and Second Amendment Rights Protection Act would require background checks for all gun sales to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and people who are mentally ill.
