V.A. Shrink Admits He Gets a $3K Bonus Per Vet for Seizing Their Guns 

 

 

In an hour long interview with George Hemminger, and a NY psychiatrist reveals shocking and detailed information of a seemingly insidious, deliberate and concerted effort by governmental auspices to confiscate firearms from veterans via psychiatric evaluations.

 

[E4 No More]

I'm from the government. I'm here to help you.

DADBUNR A*&HOLES!!!

[Guest Cami]

Just another reason the V.A. sucks a big one.  These people are really pulling out all the stops!

[Guest 6.8 AR]

That shrink and any others need to be in prison, along with the fools in the administration who bribed

them. Something smells impeachable about it, also.

[Guest MilitiaMan]

This is when I laugh at those that call me paranoid.

 

6.8, so many things have been impeachable. I just can't figure out why it hasn't happened yet.

[Grunt67]

Because no one on the Hill has the guts to do it. Had Clinton dead to rights. Xrays showed no Congressional intestines.

[Guest Cami]

He is their best friend.  Why would they impeach him?  (Heavy sarcasm)

They should have their licenses yanked for profiting from diagnosing patients with certain issues, don't they do that to surgeons?

[Grunt67]

I'm not sure some of the dr's at the VA even have a license. Definitely not top of the line at best. I've been dealing with

the VA since '68 & i've come across some things that would curl your hair.

Totally lost sight of their original misson.

[Oh Shoot]

.....6.8, so many things have been impeachable. I just can't figure out why it hasn't happened yet.

Gents, the simple answer is because the Senate is Dem. No sense the House throwing it over there, they wouldn't try him if he shot somebody on live TV.

 

I'm pretty convinced the GOP has meticulous documentation for Articles of Impeachment, but they don't have a say in the jury selection.

I'm going to look at this with a bit of skepticism until there are facts. A mysterious "Dr. X" with altered voice coming out about this with no hard evidence is not enough for me to get spun up about. Some of it sounds plausible, but I know that things have changed over the years to answer the mail on veteran suicide. Trying to remove firearms from the homes potentially suicidal vets is something the VA is going to do. The potential for them to overstep their bounds is completely possible, but I don't believe that is part of a larger plot, just typical knee jerk and inefficient government policies. I think what the "Doctor X" talks about are symptoms of a broken a system rather than a sinister plot. Seriously, anyone who has dealt with the VA knows how effed up they are.

The mental health/prevent gun violence metality is gonna get stupid. Just another front we will wind up defending.

I agree, but I don't think it does our side any good when we mistake overbearing, knee jerk policies for a vast sinister plot. I don't disagree that good intentions can develop into something sinister, but we lose credibility when we argue that this is a result of folks wringing their hands in dark, smoke filled dens of conspiracy. Lets attack these civil rights violations as is.

You know I'm not big on conspiracies. The soldiers on the left have been convinced that we're all crazy. They'll just view the mental health crackdown as tool, and abuse it in their regular fashion.

 

I responded to a facebook post from one of my tard friends yesterday. It was about Yeager getting his permit reinstated. My response... "James isn't crazy. He's just a blowhard". It was just a shot across the bow to make him shut up.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

Actually, it doesn't do our side anything if this stuff doesn't get exposed, and then shown for what it is. I

have heard so many stories, my whole life, about the VA and the never ending show your card and wait

forever mentality, that this doesn't surprise me one bit. Use them as a political tool, now. You Soldiers have

been crapped on by them for decades. You deserve a Hell a lot better.

[Chief07]

If I need medical care the VA is the last place I'll go.

So much for retired military benefits. :rant:

[Guest ancient_serpent]

I'm waiting to see this from a more credible news source. Sorry, just seems too sensationalized without something to substantial to support it.

Couldn't agree more. I look at every news source (left or right) with a bit of skepticism. This doesn't come close to passing the smell test, i.e. anonymous source with a disguised voice, non-established news reporter, grandiose claims, etc. I guess it could be true, but I would need more confirmation before accepting it as fact. Of course if the implied message fits in with your preconceived notions, then the news source is good to go.

There are about 60 or 70 Senators that need to be impeached. Clean out the corrupt politicians in Congress and then you might see some impeachments.
