1 State ILLEGALLY Added 46,000 People To NICS Database

People in a few states this past Tuesday were celebrating victories for electing officials who are friendly towards gun rights, replacing anti-gun politicians in several high profile cases.

But one of those states is still going to have to deal with nonsense which happened under anti-gun rule over the past couple of years, and some of that nonsense was even illegal. Yes, literally illegal.

John Crump gives us the ugly details from Virginia:

A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed by Gun Owners of America (GOA) shows that the Commonwealth of Virginia incorrectly added over 46,000 of its citizens to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) indices.

According to Virginia State law, anyone who is voluntarily committed to a mental institution loses their gun rights. Only potential buyers who have been committed involuntarily or have been will lose their gun rights federally. Even though they lose their state gun rights, they are not prohibited from buying firearms by federal law.

Crump continues:

The FBI NICS audit showed the Virginia State Police was marking everyone a PCA “D” that has been committed to a mental institution regardless of whether it was voluntarily or involuntarily.

This mistake means that the Virginia State Police incorrectly added over 46,000 residents to the NICS indices as federally prohibited.

In other words, because of this screw up in Virginia, 46,000 people may be deprived of their Second Amendment rights because they won’t be able to buy a gun anywhere in the United States until this is corrected.

Will it be corrected? We hope so, but the current administration in the White House doesn’t encourage me to think that these people will find any assistance from our “elected officials” in Washington about this issue.

So, intentional or not, Virginia has successfully prevented Americans from legally owning firearms if they move out of that state.

Tell me again how gun control doesn’t deprive anyone of their rights. Yeah, I still don’t believe that either.

  1. so does the 46000 have the right to sue the state of virginia and the state police for this huge SNAFU

  2. The constitution has to be followed by the meaning from the time it was written. No where in the 2nd Amendment does it state, even vaguely, that mental health removes your right to own a gun.

    No where does it state they can take you gun because of having a protection order against you.

    No where does it state you can’t own a gun if you are a felon.

    It clearly states, “NO INFRINGEMENT ON THR RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS”. This statement leaves no avenues to deny you your right to own guns.

    The founders of the USA understood the benefit of every citizen being armed. This created home and family security. The main reason was to have a standing militia ready at a moments notice to defend against coups, rebellions, and especially tyranny. The over the years, courts and our politicians have totally betrayed WE THE PEOPLE.
    After Japan bombed Pearl Harbor Japan still feared physically invading the USA because it’s citizens were well armed.

    Now, the China/Russia threat is very real and having all citizens armed will benefit our survival. Why do you think China and Russia citizens don’t own guns? To control them and not fear them.
    Look at the abuse in Australia: forced vaccinations and concentration camps. How this happens is because the Australians voluntarily gave up their guns. Europe has the same mentally. Canada is moving to remove all guns. This is how ultimate tyranny is accomplished. History has proven many times that tyranny succeeds when the citizens have no weapons, guns, to protect themselves from dictators. Even Jesus asked his disciples if they had any weapons before traveling. And the disciples stated they had two swords. And Jesus replied that was sufficient. Rome had banded swords. Never changes.

    If we keep accepting loss of our rights soon there will be none to claim.

    The recent decisions by the courts on several subjects clearly proves that everything the constitution stands for is ignored and in jeopardy. Give up your guns and you give up your rights and freedom. Good luck to all.
