    Putin is trying to show that the democratic system does not work. He is interfering in our elections and those in Europe to show our systems are flawed. If he can get a fight between gun manufacturers and the American people, he wins. The manufacturers bought the politicians. As their statements the last couple days shows, like Rubio, they are staying bought. So we will still have easy access to guns, no matter if you are nuts. But he will stir shit up to help drive us farther apart.

    The Socialist State Media is working hard ... to promulgate Putin's propaganda.

    "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

    no, Trump Did Not Make It Easier for Mentally Ill People to Buy Guns
    http://reason.com/blog/2016/01/05/ob...-stigma-around
    A federal appeals court cast doubt on the constitutionality of that policy in a 2014 case involving a 73-year-old man who was barred from buying a gun because he had been forced to undergo psychiatric treatment decades before after an emotionally devastating divorce. His daughters were concerned that he might be suicidal, and a court ruled that he posed a threat to himself. Since then, he has not experienced any more bouts of depression. A psychologist who evaluated him in 2012 found no evidence of mental illness and concluded that the 1985 incident "appeared to be a brief reactive depressive episode in response to his wife divorcing him." Yet under 18 USC 922(g)(4), that one incident barred him from ever owning a gun.

    Obama also wants the government's database to include people who receive disability benefits from the Social Security Administration and are deemed "unable to manage those benefits because of their mental impairment." In practice, that could mean that any recipient assisted by a fiduciary (a.k.a. representative payee) would lose his Second Amendment rights, even though the fact that someone needs help with financial matters does not necessarily mean he is incapable of being a responsible gun owner. As with mental health treatment, such a policy could discourage SSDI recipients who need help from asking for it, since they could lose their guns as a result.

    Have an investigation on this if you want. It will be a nothing burger just like the Mueller investigation.

    it's a Constitutional right that cannot be taken away on a class basis.
    As much as I despise gunz -simply denying them to everyone on SSA Disability with "mental problems"
    is a violation of the individual's 2nd amendment right

    And Putin was upset when Hillary questioned the legitimacy of his election.

    karma.

    Behind the allegations of a Russian hack of the DNC is the Kremlin leader's fury at Clinton for challenging the fairness of Russian elections.
