It's a little more complex than that.

No opinion on the subject itself, but what's the point of being inexact?

Look who you're asking. Its all about the agenda (which is pretty clear when he posts shit like this - obviously and deliberately cherry picking a couple words, leaving out the full statement, and not providing any link to the actual quote.)

That idiot doesn't care if it's true - its just another piece of ammo to attack with.

This is from a party which wanted to list white males, military vets coming back from Iraq / Afghanistan as ' suspected terrorists '.

And while there are already laws which keep the mentally disturbed from owning guns, Diane and the Leftists want to make a SPECIAL example of our military. Now why would that be , one has to wonder.

Oh, she was trying to push through her anti gun legislation, so there is that.

Gawd forbid we should interject some reality into Rap's idiocy.
Quote:

In response, Senator Feinstein stated neither that "all vets are mentally ill" nor that "the government should prevent [veterans] from owning firearms"; that claim is a highly exaggerated paraphrase of her remarks. What Feinstein did do was express her opinion that creating an exemption in an assault weapons ban (not a general firearms ban) for retired military personnel might was inadvisable due to both the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among that group and the difficulty of verifying that a potential gun purchaser was in fact a veteran, and that the proposed amendment should therefore include a provision for screening out "mentally incapacitated" veterans:
Quote:

If I understand this, this [amendment] adds an exemption of retired military. As I understand our bill, no issue has arose [sic] in this regard during the 10 years the expired ban was in effect and what we did in the other bill was exempt possession by the United States or a department or agency of the United States. So that included active military. The problem with expanding this is that, you know, with the advent of PTSD, which I think is a new phenomenon as a product of the Iraq War, it’s not clear how the seller or transferrer of a firearm covered by this bill would verify that an individual was a member, or a veteran, and that there was no impairment of that individual with respect to having a weapon like this. So, you know, I would be happy to sit down with you again and see if we could work something out but I think we have to — if you’re going to do this, find a way that veterans who are incapacitated for one reason or another mentally don’t have access to this kind of weapon.



In other words, no "SPECIAL example of our military", just no special EXEMPTION for military who may be suffering from mental illness. Exactly the opposite of what Rap is claiming.

THIS " idiot doesn't care if it's true - its just another piece of ammo to attack with."

What's worse? That we have 900,000 veterans on food stamps, or that the GOP just voted to cut the amount they get?

Hey Niki - If you like your plan, you can keep it. If you like your doctor, you can keep him. Period.

Democrats lie.

You can, unless your insurance company decides to drop you...which has been the way of things before the law.

Precisely. The simple fact is that anyone whose insurance plan existed before the ACA became law could keep their plan, they provided for that. The GOVERNMENT couldn't stop insurance companies from deciding that the "grandfathered" plans weren't going to make enough profit for them and cancelled them as a result. If they'd FORCED the insurance companies to keep those plans, omg, would the right have been screaming bloody murder!

By the way, the national one may be a total mess, but we're doing just fine in California, thank you:

Oh, OK. No cites. You're lying your ass off again. Or you're deluded. Either way, this is yet another example why no one should take you seriously.
