Gun Bill Not Anti-Veteran

There is no such thing as the �Veterans Disarmament Act.� There is no pending legislation that would take firearms away from veterans. There is no pending legislation that would prevent a person with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), veteran or not, from purchasing a firearm or ammo.

But, there is a huge campaign of misinformation and scare tactics being forwarded by a small gun owners group who view themselves to be in competition with the National Rifle Association (NRA).

Let�s use some common sense instead of nonsense. If veterans were to lose the right to own firearms, you�d have a lot of unemployed cops. If those who have PTSD were to lose that right, there�d be even more unemployed cops and other first responders, as well. The arguments about a �Veterans Disarmament Act� are, quite simply, ridiculous and illogical.

Lather, rinse, repeat.
