Re: To whom it may concern

I just got the following e-mail from a gun owner who is very sincere in wanting to get this information out to other gun owners/carriers.  Oh, yes -- Certainly don't tell your doctor or ANYone if you feel like doing harm to someone! And keep your gun close to you at all times so no one can take it from you. Then you'll be just like that guy in Arizona who was able to get a gun very easily, even though he was extremely mentally disturbed.  Telling a disturbed person to keep quiet about their paranoid feelings is the worst possible advice to give.  Anyone who is feeling stressed, threatened or wants to do harm to someone is not a person you want to be carrying a concealed gun!  These are exactly the people who should NOT have weapons in their possession.  This e-mail perfectly exemplifies the NRA-type of mentality that keeps us bound to violence in our society.  It's more than amazing, isn't it, that they want to hide and defend mental instability in gun owners, even after all the mass killings in our country from guns in the hands of the mentally disturbed? The divide in the consciousness of the political right and left in our country is so wide and deep, I wonder if it can ever be bridged.  A better solution might be to just live on two different planets.  If only that were possible...

Concealed Carry
 
  Please pass this on to all the other retired guys and gun owners...Thanks

 
From a Vietnam Vet and retired Police Officer:
 
I had a doctors appointment at the local VA clinic yesterday and found out something very interesting that I would like to pass along.  While going through triage before seeing the doctor, I was asked at the end of the exam, three questions:
 
1. Did I feel stressed?
 
2. Did I feel threatened?
 
3. Did I feel like doing harm to someone?
 
The nurse then informed me, that if I had answered yes to any of the  questions, I would have lost my concealed carry permit as it would have gone into my medical records and the VA would have reported it to Homeland Security.  Looks like they are going after the vets first.
 
Other gun people like retired law enforcement will probably be next.  Then when they go after the civilians, what argument will they have?  Be forewarned and be aware.
 
The Obama administration has gone on record as considering veterans and gun owners potential terrorists.  Whether you are a gun owner veteran or not, you've been warned.
 
If you know veterans and gun owners, please pass this on to them.  Be very cautious about what you say and to whom.
