Gun "reform" ?

[dogtowner]

Harry Reid's bill does nothing to help

and quite a lot to hurt

did you know that one provision will subject someone failing to report a known loss or theft within 24 hours to not only the police but the Attorney General of the United States ?

How does that stopwatch get started ?

Say you were deep in the wilderness hunting, drop your firearm in a ravine but are 2 days ride to communication ? you could get 5 years in a federal pen and a felony conviction for that.

how does this help stop crazy people from going crazy ?

everyone should support this filibusterer and demand actions that will actually help.

start with enforcing laws that require mental health professionals to report lunatics (and ALL the mass shooting crazy people were known lunatics that went unreported).

The president pledged to use all the power of his office to enact measures to stem violence after December's killings, but as their memory has faded, the tricky politics of Washington has chipped away at his reform package.
His calls for a revived ban on assault weapons and limits on high capacity magazines appear unlikely to pass Congress, and doubt clouds the prospects of another plan -- for expanded background checks for gun owners.
Republican Senator Mike Lee said Monday that 13 senators have now signed a letter objecting to Reid's legislation and threatening to filibuster it.
"The proposals serve primarily to limit the rights of law-abiding citizens, while doing little, if anything, to reduce violent crimes," Lee said.
Obama also has problems from some Democratic senators hailing from conservative or rural states -- who have testing re-election races in 2014 and are wary of more gun control.

A Form of Gun Confiscation Has Reportedly Begun in New York State — Here’s the Justification Being Used

• Gun owners are losing their 2nd Amendment rights without due process.
• HIPAA Laws are likely being compromised and the 4th and 5th Amendments are being violated in some of these cases

The Mental Health Lawprovision of the SAFE Act claims:

​

The NY SAFE Act is designed to remove firearms from those who seek to do harm to themselves or others. This means keeping the minority of individuals with serious mental illness who may be dangerous away from access to firearms. This law should not dissuade any individual from seeking mental health services they need.​

The law is clear on what it expects:

​

MHL 9.46 requires mental health professionals to report to their local director of community services (“DCS”) or his/her designees when, in their reasonable professional judgment, one of their patients is “likely to engage in conduct that would result in serious harm to self or others.”​

to enact measures to stem violence

But none of the measure he's proposing, would do anything to stem violence.

They would only be obeyed by the law-abiding. And they aren't the ones committing the violence.
