NRA Stabs Veterans--Is anti Veteran!

[fabsroman]

I just received e-mails from the NRA and the NSSF stating that the bill in Congress was to improve the NICS check and to allow a means for people to appeal negative NICS results. Is the bill you are referring to something different?

Okay, I found HR 2640, copied and pasted it in Word and did a search for the word "veteran" and it isn't even in the bill.

HR 2640 is the bill that is the bill that is supposed to allow people to appeal negative NICS results and it allows the system to be amended if an adjudication of mental illness is later reversed. The bill is 12 pages long in Word, so I didn't have the time to read the entire thing, but I do know that the NRA and the NSSF both endorsed it.

If it does what the NRA and the NSSF say it does, then I am all for it. If it helps to keep guns out of peoples' hands like the VA Tech shooter and the recent mall shooter, I am all for it. Without these types of shootings, there wouldn't be as much opposition to shootings. Honestly, if somebody is suffering from mental illness, should we really allow them to have a firearm?
