SNIP

In an alert to its members, GOA contends that under Obamacare's medical record computerization mandate, the government will be able to access your previously confidential medical records to deny you gun rights. .GOA concludes by urging members to contact their Congressional delegation via this easy to use action link.

But privacy experts are alarmed as well at the Obama administration's damn the torpedoes attitude to impose statist policy mandates at whatever the cost to privacy. . . . So even if gun rights are not your priority these days, you still might want to hit GOA's action linkand tell your Congressional delegation to derail Obamacare before it's too late.

I seem to remember hearing about some soldiers who were treated for minor psychological ailments and then were banned from owning / purchasing firearms after the GOVERNMENT included this data in the background checks.

The fix was that the individuals could APPLY to have this data removed.

If this is the recent past... I CERTAINLY DON"T WANT TO SEE WHAT WILL BE THE FUTURE IF THIS FEDERAL HEALTH CARE PLAN IS MANDATED AND FORCED UPON US!

"Obamacare" is just warmed-over "Hillarycare" and it is NOT "free health care", you will be FORCED to buy coverage in the amount the government says you need and your additional premium cost will be used to provide coverage to those who are too lazy to get a damn job. THEN the feds will step in and run your life down to the minutest detail to "lower healthcare costs". This Administration, may I remind everyone, is engaged not just in an assault on the RTKBA but on the entire Constitution, and they are trying to take advantage of any weak point they see. Man, it is gonna be a long haul keeping these buggers in check until November 2010. People have really begun to regret voting this nincompoop and his syncophants into office.

I was talking to a freind about the points brought out in this article . His response is what would you talk to your doctor about that you don't want the government to know. He said the same thing about homeland security. People just don't get it anymore. Our rights are there and recognized by the constitution for a reason, if they are cumbersome to our government then they are doing exactly what they are supposed to do.

How many people will suffer in silence now that this on the table? Would you really mention that you've had some psychological problems to your doctor if you felt it would impact your rights? Imagine how this will affect the returning soldiers.

Canadians still manage to live longer than Americans. I somehow doubt our emergency rooms will be awash with invaders from the north if we get anything resembling subsidized care.

Sen.Kennedy's single payer system is not the same model as that Prez Obama was promoting in his town hall.

The issue of electronic medical records is a separate one: already the digitization of these records is proceeding. However, the federal government is not going to be put into possession of these records. If the privacy protections work the way they are supposed to, BATFE should be no more able to "troll" through these records than they are now.

We need to insist that privacy protections on digital health records are strong and enforced.

There are no 2A issues in President Obama's health care reform proposal.

Damn it Donkey, you're just spoiling all the fun. Nextyou'll tell not to bury our guns,that hehe supports the RKBA.

P.S. There are, of course, mental health issues that will be exploited to exclude the penultimate right from as many "ordinary" citizens as possible.

Our President seems to inspire many mental health issues amongst those prone to gun-nuttyness to begin with.

Not by much. Canadian demographics are considerably different, and when you control by race and socioeconomic group, I bet they're almost the same.

"Can"? Possibly. Legally? No.

Most medical records "can" be lawfully subpoenaed. Butsuch subpoenas also can besuccessfully resisted on multiple grounds.
