Obamacare will grab our guns
From the patriots at Free Republic:

In brief, the Baucus bill which passed out of committee will hurt you in several ways:

* You will have less money for buying firearms and ammunition...

* Anti-gun medical database that can be used to deny your right to purchase firearms...The federal government has already used medical diagnoses (such as PTSD) to deny more than 150,000 military veterans the right to own guns...

* Discrimination against gun owners. ObamaCare legislation in Congress will very likely empower anti-gun bureaucrats to deny medical reimbursements to individuals who engage in supposedly “dangerous” activities, like hunting or keeping loaded weapons for self-defense...

3. ...And, the bill does not subsidize gun polish
Edited on Mon Oct-26-09 07:40 AM by SpiralHawk
Can you really support a national health care bill that does not subsidize gun polish?

Think of all the unrubbed guns that will be out there?

Only socialists support unrubbed guns.

Support gun rubbers, and rubber guns.

5. If the Government can regulate guns as part of health care, what about daredevils like Evel Knievel?
I would hate to see the end of circus performers, the winter Olympics, or scuba diving because the risk would drive up health care costs.

6. Wow... they are REALLY reaching for those answers.
You will have less money for buying guns? Really? Not food, or gas, or books... guns? That's the red light that goes off in your head for this?

7. Will there be an anti-homosexuality database too?
After all, Obama wants to control everything. :sarcasm:

8. Hopefully they will make it that you can't get the public option if you have a gun.
Why would the government insure somebody who is a danger to themselves and others?

9. I thought the OP's source was pretty paranoid, then I read your post.
Thanks for proving that anti-gun extremists cannot actually be exaggerated.

12. Yup. And...
...ObamaCare won't cover meat-eaters, smokers, drinkers, people that own dogs larger than 50 pounds, people that live in buildings with stairs, people that ride motorcycles, peple that have eaten at a fast-food restraunt, ethic minorities (often victims of violence), women (Ibid.), and gays (Ibid.).
