Drone fly - drop bomb on target - target dead. Target = 16 year old US citizen at a cook out.
My reasoning skills are in tact and fully functioning.

Weird isn't weird when it's fact. Your refusal to acknowledge the truth is just as repulsive as the man you admire and worship.

Does having more people with concealed carry gun permits make you feel safer
A little thing I picked up on The Daily Paul. It looks like Obamacare is an obstacle to gathering any information for the lawful use of firearms including health records under the ACA. The secretary the language refers to is the HHS. If I read it correctly any health records that could be provided by Health and Human Services is inadmissible. So if you have someone covered by this act that would be deemed unsuitable for the possession of firearms they might very well slip through.
So much for Pelosi's "we need to pass this bill to find out whats in it."
Senate Amendment 3276, Sec. 2716, part c. On page 2037 of the ACA. added by Harry Reid
(2) LIMITATION ON DATA COLLECTION- None of the authorities provided to the Secretary under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or an amendment made by that Act shall be construed to authorize or may be used for the collection of any information relating to–`(A) the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition;`(B) the lawful use of a firearm or ammunition; or`(C) the lawful storage of a firearm or ammunition...
Here's the video

Another nugget I found was language in the Brady Bill that addresses a registry using data collected through The National Instant Criminal Background Check System.
Section 103
(i) PROHIBITION RELATING TO ESTABLISHMENT OF REGISTRATION SYSTEMS WITH RESPECT TO FIREARMS- No department, agency, officer, or employee of the United States may--
(1) require that any record or portion thereof generated by be recorded at or transferred to a facility owned, managed, or controlled by the United States or any State or political subdivision thereof; or
(2) use the system established under this section to establish any system for the registration of firearms, firearm owners, or firearm transactions or dispositions, except with respect to persons, prohibited by section 922 (g) or (n) of title 18, United States Code or State law, from receiving a firearm.
Big bills contain big obstacles. The gun control lobby will still get mostly what it wants but hopefully it will take time to work out....at least enough time for me to obtain my own AR-15

Maybe the NRA wasn't so wrong after all.
Newtown parents WANT armed security.

Thanks dewndel, I appreciate your civility in your post.
Observe: Start at 2:40. If you're interested in the cited DOJ reference it's in there somewhere. It's an interesting segment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR9RN_...

My concern would really be for the people not on the map. Ask any convicted armed robber who he likes to rob the most? It's the people that do not have firearms. Not only did they publish who had firearms but who does not. It was a stupid move and actually put more people's lives at higher risk of becoming targets because of their selfish agenda.
