I don’t normally step on the “third rail”… how many times have we seen practitioners “taken out” with the FACTS from the DEA that they violated some “red flags”… none of which are defined in the controlled substance act and more often than not… the DEA uncovered these “red flag violations” by data mining the various states’ PDMP ?
Just imagine, if the ATF starts down the path of the DEA.. after all they are also part of the DOJ.. and starts data mining Electronic Medical Records and/or all prescription records – after all the PBM industry pays for some 90% of all prescriptions and with pharmacies filling some FOUR BILLION Rx per year… the PBM’s have huge databases… and the PBM’s are all about generating revenues and profits… just let the ATF to go on a “fishing expedition” thru their databases. 
Find a person who has meds prescribed by a Psychiatrist, has a anti-depressant or some other “mental health med” prescribed/filled, someone who is a chronic pain pt and taking opiates… RED FLAGS of potential “mental instability” … under the “influence of opiates”… Compare those names with the national gun register and could a person find someone from the local law enforcement or ATF… at their front door wanting to confiscate their guns ?
Of course, those people in possession of guns, that they have obtained thru break-ins, robbery, bought off the street and the like – don’t have to worry… there is no record of them buying/owning a firearm.
Just look at this recent case Dr. Bauer reports to prison Thursday 85 y/o doctor sent to jail for 5 yrs on the ALLEGATIONS by the DEA of “not adhering to good medical practices” which I have never seen the DEA DEFINE, and THOUSANDS of his chronic pain pts were tossed to the curb. All those pts having to suffer thru cold turkey withdrawal, committing suicide, having to live/exist in a torturous level of pain and a untold number of premature deaths from their untreated pain. I guess that all those “bodies” left in the wake of the DEA actions, will be just unfortunate collateral damage.
Fortunately or unfortunately, my two INDIANA SENATORS are not part of the 10 Republican Senators that have abandoned the party’s platform, I have no one to write to hoping they will change their vote. Probably most/all are not up for re-election this Nov and figure that “all will be forgotten” the next time they run for re-election.
Senate Republicans Betray Base, Join Democrats on Gun Crackdown
DEVELOPING STORY: While you were attending church this morning, a bipartisan group of U.S. senators were conspiring to take away your constitutional rights.
The lawmakers, including enough Republicans to overcome the chamber’s “filibuster” rule, on Sunday announced an agreement on a plan that would curtail the right to bear arms.
“This is the ultimate betrayal of conservative voters,” said nationally syndicated radio host Todd Starnes. “Senate Republicans are more interested in being accepted at Georgetown cocktail parties than they are keeping their word to constituents.”
The bill included support for state “red flag” laws, tougher background checks for firearms buyers under 21 and a crackdown on a practice called “straw purchases.”
“Our plan saves lives while also protecting the constitutional rights of law-abiding Americans,” the group, led by Democrat Chris Murphy and Republican John Cornyn, said in a statement. “We look forward to earning broad, bipartisan support and passing our commonsense proposal into law.”
Ten Republicans signaled their support for the preliminary deal, indicating the measure potentially could advance to a vote on passage and overcome roadblocks by other Republicans who oppose most gun control measures.
The senators include: Chris Murphy, John Cornyn, Thom Tillis , Kyrsten Sinema, Richard Blumenthal, Roy Blunt, Cory Booker, Richard Burr, Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Chris Coons, Lindsey Graham, Martin Heinrich, Mark Kelly, Angus King, Joe Manchin, Rob Portman, Mitt Romney, Debbie Stabenow, and Pat Toomey.
President Biden specifically thanks Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Sen. Thom Tillis (R-NC) for their help in weakening the Second Amendment.
I want to thank Senator Chris Murphy and the members of his bipartisan group—especially Senators Cornyn, Sinema, and Tillis—for their tireless work to produce this proposal. Obviously, it does not do everything that I think is needed, but it reflects important steps in the right direction, and would be the most significant gun safety legislation to pass Congress in decades. With bipartisan support, there are no excuses for delay, and no reason why it should not quickly move through the Senate and the House. Each day that passes, more children are killed in this country: the sooner it comes to my desk, the sooner I can sign it, and the sooner we can use these measures to save lives.
White House
Biden had called for banning the sale of assault weapons and high-capacity magazines, or, if that were not possible, raising the minimum age to buy those weapons to 21 from 18. Biden also pressed for repealing the liability shield that protects gun manufacturers from being sued for violence perpetrated by people carrying their guns.

Well we’re seeing who more RINOs are.
I keep wondering what its going to take before Americans are pissed off enough to take action. I can’t believe it hasn’t happened yet. But
If they pass that bill or try taking the ARs and AKs, that just might be enough to do it. Maybe.. but I’ve heard so many people say, Let them try to come get them. Guess we’ll see about that. This is the last country standing with weapons and these Globalists want so badly to take them and weaken citizens to point of having nothing. Two more years left of this demented idiot and by then the US will be totally trashed. Its getting really close to it right now.

Donna, you do not care about children being slaughtered with weapons of war. I know a lot of hunters and none of them shoot deer with automatic weapons. When the 2nd amendment was written, we had muskets for weapons, not automatics. How do you propose we stop the slaughter of innocent children.
I am afraid I may have been (attempted to set me up) with a red flag. My Husband is bedridden 70% disabled Vet. The girls here who “help” are lazy, seldom show up on time, either put away things where I cannot find them or steal them (especially drugs) sit and either play on their phone or rearrange my furniture to better watch tv. Say he is Too heavy to turn over, don’t want to change his bed. Etcetera. I have been through more than I care to say. The first one here in Texas had girls with heavy accents. He only has 10% hearing in 1 ear. He told me he couldn’t understand them. That agency turned me into Area on Aging- Elder abuse. It has dogged me since then. Recently the same agency tried to get him back. I said no. I didn’t trust them. I called his case manager and she changed it to another agency last Thursday. Friday morning the same gal came and said another report THIS MORNING. At 9am, how did she get a report and get out to our house by 9am? She ranted about a lot of things *****EVEN ASKING IF I THOUGHT I WAS MENTALLY ILL?****** What? I realized after she left that she didn’t say a thing about my Husband’s care- only the helpers.
So I checked:
The National Center on Elder Abuse distinguishes between seven different types of elder abuse. These include physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, financial/material exploitation, neglect, abandonment, and self-neglect. Physical abuse. None of this EVER MENTIONED. SHE IS THE ABUSIVE ONE.
Give me advice!
Texas is not a two party recording state… so anyone can record if one person knows that the recording is happening… it is your house and your Husband,,, Here is a wall clock that will record run on battery or AC… if they are going to lie on you about you… record their A$$… https://www.zetronix.com/hera-wifi-hd-night-vision-smartphone-ready-nanny-cam-wall-clock.html

Thank you. Ordered. I was confused. It comes with a chip/starter recorder? I assumed it did and just ordered the clock.
My BP has gone crazy with the situation. Thank God I finally got a doctor who ordered clonidine for me. But I can’t live on it. Today 182/120. I get the edges of a headache and know to go check it.
That woman has a vendetta. I think she did it Friday on purpose. But what government agency gets a notice Friday morning and is out at the residence at 9AM?
