Obama's Social Security Administration to Strip Millions of Americans of their Right ....
• LewRockwellNot only would this amount to the largest gun grab in American history, but according to the published report, would take place without any due process protections for recipients, amounting to a nullification of Second Amendment rights for millions of Americans who don't pose a threat to themselves or anyone else.
This new program appears to have been instigated by the SSA in response to a memorandum issued by Obama in January of 2013 which directed all federal agency executives to "improve the availability of records to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS)." This memorandum required all agency heads to submit to the Department of Justice (DOJ) a plan for "sharing all relevant Federal records" for submission to the NICS.
Evidently, Obama's SSA bureaucrats read "all relevant Federal records" to mean all Social Security recipients who have a "representative payee" assigned to their accounts to help them manage their payments and receipts.
