Subject: Gun amendment in Obamacare?
Ha - they have outsmarted themselves
this time! But watch out –
they’ll probably try to screw us
again.

These people are too stupid for
words. "We have to pass
the Bill before we know what's in it" and even
then they don't know what's in
it.
- Wednesday, it was discovered
that hidden deep within the massive 2800-page bill
called Obamacare, there is a Senate Amendment protecting
the right to keep and bear arms.
It seems that in their haste to cram socialized medicine down the throats of the American people, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Barack Obama overlooked Senate amendment 3276, Sec. 2716, part c.
According to that amendment, the government cannot collect "any information relating to the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition." This means that the government CANNOT mandate firearm registration. No registration, no confiscation. Poor ol' Joe Biden, he spent the last couple of weeks focusing on making a law requiring registration. Good thing is though, the amendment also states that not even an executive order can override the amendment.
CNN is now referring to it as "a gift to the nation's powerful gun lobby."
And according to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), that's exactly right. He says he personally added the provision in order to keep the NRA from getting involved in the legislative fight over Obamacare, which was so ubiquitous in 2010.
It looks like Harry Reid actually helped out firearm owners without even realizing it. Thanks Harry!!

It's in a health care bill, so naturally, it pertains to health care professionals reporting patients who are victims of violence.
But hey, don't let actually reading the bill get in the way of a good story.
Asumming this was true (which it isn't, as anon points out), shouldn't this be proof that Dems aren't actually interested in "coming to take ur guns!!"?
Or is this more of LaPierre's style of "proof": the fact that they said or did something actually means they want to do the exact opposite?
1) That line by Pelosi was deliberately taken out of context by the conservative yapping-brigade, as anyone knows.
2) Most people knows what is in the bill regarding this issue except for people who are horribly misinformed.
Now what were those links again?
Oh yes, FOX and Breitbart. Carry on.
