Outrageous: Veterans Receiving Letters Prohibiting The Purchase, Possession, Receipt, Or Transport Of A Firearms & Ammunition

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Every day I read the news and become more and more disheartened at the volume of attacks taking place that damn near everybody could care less about. Only a select few you find online seem to be aware of the these threats against Liberty and Freedom that are taking place. I find I have to take breaks from the Internet because of all the bad news bringing me down, and seeing so many who have no clue of the severity these Attacks pose.

Innocents Betrayed – The History of Gun Control

How would you feel if you received a letter from the U.S. Government informing you that because of a physical or mental condition that the government says you have it is proposing to rule that you are incompetent to handle your own financial affairs? Suppose that letter also stated that the government is going to appoint a stranger to handle your affairs for you at your expense? That would certainly be scary enough but it gets worse.

What if that letter also stated: “A determination of incompetency will prohibit you from purchasing, possessing, receiving, or transporting a firearm or ammunition. If you knowingly violate any of these prohibitions, you may be fined, imprisoned, or both pursuant to the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, Pub.L.No. 103-159, as implemented at 18, United States Code 924(a)(2).”?

That makes is sound like something right from a documentary on a tyrannical dictatorship somewhere in the world. Yet, as I write this I have a copy of such a letter right in front of me. It is being sent by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to hundreds, perhaps thousands, of America’s heroes. In my capacity as Executive Director of the United States Justice Foundation (USJF) I have been contacted by some of these veterans and the stories I am getting are appalling.

      Before they throw us into Fema camps if we are lucky, or One of those Fema coffins that fits 6. Their agenda is quite clear, disarm the people before the slaughter. People are so damn stupid not seeing or clearly not thinking this coulld happen here but little do they know it has happened all throughout history and the forefathers of this country foreseen this would happen hence they wrote to us the 2nd amendment which the sheeple are gleefully given away thinking they are establishing some kind of Utopian society when all they are doing are signing their own death warrants.

        Stupid doesn’t deserve your concern! They get what they want. SECURITY from FEMA & DHS! :lol:

      Our nation is more interested in being entertained (sports, TV, games, etc) than truly understanding the path we are on and have been traveling down. We’ve become a nation of self centered people who can not longer see truth. We have a nation of people who see what is happening, but because of the normalcy factor, can’t believe their eyes and refuse to acknowledge the truth…… I woke up in early 2008 and have been in search of understanding where we have been and where we are headed and it does not look pretty.

      For those who seek “entertainment”, ignorance is bliss and perhaps an easier path than the one I’ve been on for over 5 years. It sounds like LedaOhio9 has been on this same path…….

        “Break Out the Gladiators, The Peasants Stir and Need Superficially Appeased!”
        Aka: Bread and Circuses

        If even HALF of the Sports Junkies that memorize statistics etc spent that time following Politics.. There is NO WAY IN HELL TPTB could have gotten away with what they are doing.

        Mindless Entertainment is an age old tactic they use.. Distraction.. Sleight of Hand.. Watch the Bouncing Ball while we steal the Jacks.

        “A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks.” —Thomas Jefferson, letter to Peter Carr, 1785


        “Bread and circuses” (or bread and games) (from Latin: panem et circenses) is a metaphor for a superficial means of appeasement. In the case of politics, the phrase is used to describe the creation of public approval, not through exemplary or excellent public service or public policy, but through diversion; distraction; or the mere satisfaction of the immediate, shallow requirements of a populace,[1] as an offered “palliative.” Juvenal decried it as a simplistic motivation of common people. The phrase also implies the erosion or ignorance of civic duty amongst the concerns of the common man.

        In modern usage, the phrase is taken to describe a populace that no longer values civic virtues and the public life. To many, it connotes a supposed triviality and frivolity that characterized the Roman Republic prior to its decline into the autocratic monarchy characteristic of the later Roman Empire’s transformation about 44 B.C.

          If it worked for the Roman Emperors, why not for those in power today??

          Ask the vets you know. It’s true. I wish it wasn’t happening, but it is. We will all get through this. Stuart Rhodes did a great bit on We are change on the 29th or 30th. If my keyboard equals and dash worked, I would post a link. I should have new one soon! Thank you Leda! God Bless You All.

      Many are satisfied with being fed, clothed and given shelter at other peoples’ expense………their mantra “don’t bite the hand that feeds you”

    • Michael Carrigan

      And under this definition, an international body could make a determination that the United States is incapable of handling its own financial affairs (inability or unwillingness to balance a budget; the addiction to debt; possessing weapons of mass destruction) and rule that it should be disarmed by absorbing it into a group of nations.

      But is the resolve there “that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth” as Lincoln desired?

      And did you hear that if the Ft. Hood, Texas soldiers donate to a TEA party or a Christian party, they will be PUNISHED by our government?

      • Stan

        The left are experts at demonizing their opponents. They have attacked those in the TEA Party since they took power in 2010. Ridicule and marginalizing and throwing out accusations of racism and bigotry are effective to shut people up and keep them silent. That is what we have witnessed since the chairman has taken office…..

      I would like a big dish of spaghetti and a bowl of chocolate ice cream before they take me away.

      :?: I know a lot of Veterans who have recently returned home from combat areas as well as many others who have been out a while, including myself. I have never heard anyone stating they have received such a letter. Please post more exact evidence including perhaps a copy of the suggested letter and a link to the Government Article stating this to be true. Thanks..

      The following is a post from a blog site confirming my thoughts…

      PTSD vets do not concern me. Just because one suffers from PTSD does not make one dangerous or crazy. It just means you’ve experienced some crazy, inhumane shiite that has left you with some very bad memories. You can’t not be affected by that if you are truly human.

      Now liberalism PROVES one is dangerous AND crazy and therefore liberals should not be allowed to own guns or to breed or hold government positions or anything like that.
      Thanks KaribouKidd, . . . couldn’t have said it better myself. Watch over em, . . . lots of other folks are just lookin the other way, . . . or out the window.

      May God bless,

    • V for Vendetta

      It’s time for these veterans to buy weapons and ammo any way possible and prepare to take down this Nazi treasonous coward government. DO NOT COMPLY VETS. This government is illegal and anything they say or do does not matter. Prepare yourselves It’s time for an a Coup d’etat. Against this fake tyrannic coward over controlling Nazi government.

    • JustDave

      I am a Vet with many family members who are also Vets…never seen a letter like this. More BS methinks. :razz: :razz: :razz: :razz:

    • marlio

      do you actually BELIEVE these veterans are going to pay ANY ATTENTION to this letter. No they wont because they dont respect this person in the white house and will see it in their best interests to own guns and ammunition…

    • StavoV

      :shock: Where in the world do you goofy rightwingers get your information? You like to spread the hate and discontent, to take the heat off’ve the mess you have made in America. We have more to fear from you loons on the right, than anything the government can come up with. All you are doing is starting something, that is going to have a very deadly finish to it. :roll:

      • LedaOhio9

        The video is total truth and should convince even THICKEST SKULLS of what is going on.

        History is repeating it’s self right in front of our eyes and you STILL deny it?

        I have no words to describe the level of ignorance you’re showing with your comment.

    • WhyHurtPeople

      IF THIS DOESN’T CONVINCE YOU TO KEEP YOUR GUNS AND TO SHOOT ANYONE WHO TRIES TO TAKE YOURS AWAY THEN YOU DESRVE CAMP FEMA. THE SECOND AMENDMENT GIVES EVERY AMERICAN THR RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS. tHIS WAS DECREED BY OUR FOREFATHERS WHO HAD TO FIGHT TYRANNY TO OBTAIN FREEDOM. NO DEMOCRACY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD HAS LASTED 300 YEARS. IF MARTIAL LAW IS DECLARED, IT IS AN UNLAWFUL ACT AND JUST LIKE ANY UNLAWFUL ACT IT SHOULD NOT BE OBEYED BY ANY SOLDIER, OFFICER OR ENLISTED. MARTIAL LAW IN ITSELF IS LEGAL, BUT TWO ENACT AN EXECUTIVE ORDER TO NULLIFY THE 2ND AMENDMENT IS NOT. I KNOW WHAT MY DAD IS GOING TO DO AND ALL OF HIS FRIENDS.
