Corsi: Obama Limits Second Amendment Gun Rights by Stroke of Pen

[U201491]

OK, I must be blind. The article posted by the OP said Odumbo signed 2 executive orders but I only saw:
One of these executive orders will permit states to provide mental health information to government gun control authorities, totally ignoring HIPAA privacy restrictions
WTF is the other EO?

YOU owe me a thumb !
I had to go to a damned liberal progressive site to get this.
So it is done in libspeak.

The first order, proposed by the Department of Justice, more clearly defines who cannot possess a handgun under federal law due to mental health issues. It is designed to clarify the language of the current law by providing better definitions for phrases like what it means to be "committed to a mental institution." This, in turn, will provide a more well-rounded picture of a potential buyer's mental health for the background check to determine whether a purchase should be allowed.

The second executive action concerns privacy laws associated with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. States have complained that individual privacy protections have made it difficult for them to report relevant mental health information to their respective background check systems, which they fear could lead to guns falling into dangerous hands. The proposed change would allow states to relay "limited" tidbits of information that they feel should be included in background checks. The executive order stresses that it will not prevent everyone with mental health concerns from buying guns, and will not require buyers to report "routine mental health care."

He has got to leave some room for more regulation for the next tyrant to protect the people from themselves.

Admittedly I don't know a whole lot about EOs and EAs, but there might be a public comment period before they are actually put into action.
