Gun Purchases: Doctor Approval Needed?
If Barack Obama has his way, the federal government will be able to use your medical records -- including mental health records -- to keep you from purchasing or even owning a gun.
While the feds have been centralizing medical records and
-- thanks to the NRA working with Carolyn McCarthy -- collecting data on so-called "mental defectives" for years, they're only now building an apparatus large enough to exploit that data in real time -- ObamaCare.
(For more info about how the NRA sold out your gun rights after the Virginia Tech tragedy, click the link at the bottom of this message to be taken to Luke's blog, and click on H.R. 2640.)
Well, what in the world is a "mental defective"?
Quite simply, a "mental defective" is someone the government, working with the scientific elite, wishes to prohibit from owning a firearm for so-called "medical" reasons.
But if some doctor were to evaluate your mental health in such a fashion, you wouldn't be in a position to defend yourself: He's a doctor -- not a policeman. If you don't like his diagnosis, you can go somewhere else, right?
Not anymore -- not if H.R. 3200, the current health care bill, passes.
Under ObamaCare, if that doctor, working with the feds, reports his diagnosis, the feds might just feel compelled to revoke your Second Amendment rights.
No court. No legal battle. But you can't keep your guns anymore.
It gets worse.
To ensure the smooth flow of information between federal government agencies (read: violation of privacy, distribution of personal health records), lawmakers have actually taken precautions to nullify privacy protections already in U.S. Code for this particular bill!

I worked as coordinator of medical records in a 6 clinic system,for more than 5 years,and I don't any more!Medical records are worth big bucks,to corporations, insurance companies and various types of law firms, now add government! Often,when a patient attempts to get life insurance,the records go to a medical records gathering company,I can name a few,but that would not be prudent.The records are scanned into a computer system and resold many times over to various interested parties!This has gone on for many years now,it's nothing new!Electronic medical records,will make it cheaper and easier,to get the"data"!The EMS conversion,has been a federal mandate for several years now,also!..It seems privacy and ethics has taken a back seat,to profitable nosieness in the information age!
