    Good news for Gun Owners

    Sometimes a gift gets dropped into your lap.

    ....Looks like Obama should have read the "Obamacare" law before he signed it, OR he was so eager to get "Obamacare" that he didn't care about the "gun owners" clause that was in it!
    So, Obama was either stupid for not reading the bill OR knew the clause was necessary to get his "Obamacare" passed, so that his ego could soar!

    Wednesday, it was discovered that hidden deep within the massive 2800-page bill called Obamacare, there is a Senate Amendment protecting the right to keep and bear arms.
    It seems that in their haste to cram socialized medicine down the throats of the American people, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Barack Obama overlooked Senate amendment 3276, Sec. 2716, part c.

    According to that amendment, the government cannot collect "any information relating to the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition." This means that the government CANNOT mandate firearm registration. No registration, no confiscation. Poor ol' Joe Biden, he spent the last couple of weeks focusing on making a law requiring registration. Good thing is though, the amendment also states that not even an executive order can override the amendment.

    CNN is now referring to it as "a gift to the nation's powerful gun lobby."

    And according to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), that's exactly right. He says he personally added the provision in order to keep the NRA from getting involved in the legislative fight over Obamacare, which was so ubiquitous in 2010.

    It looks like Harry Reid actually helped out firearm owners without even realizing it. Thanks Harry!!

    Dupe, don't feel like searching for the other one, but from what I read this isn't really as good as it sounds for us and doesn't really mean what the claim states.

    This. It only bars HHS from collecting data regarding firearms and ammo, not the Judicial Branch, the FBI, ATF, etc...

    Sorry.

    It's already been taken out of OBC by executive order Look up Obama's 23 executive orders and you'll find it. This was stated in the other thread.
