Will the Gun-Grabbers Create a ‘No Buy List’ Using Your Prescription Records?

[Trooper]

Could the Feds potentially use your prescription drug history to curtail your Second Amendment rights? In the wake of President Obama’s list of 23 executive orders — saying “If there’s even one thing that we can do to reduce this violence…” — the potential exists for the Department of Justice to use federal drug databases to screen for “mental illnesses.”

While the idea may sound far-fetched, state and federal agencies already cooperate to share information about your history of prescription drug use, including the use of medications for “psychiatric disorders.” Your doctor, your pharmacist, and your local emergency room already know a lot more than you think they know about your prescription drug history if you take a drug on the federal controlled substances list.

Remember that there are federal requirements that your medical records remain private. yet they mandate that all medical records now be recorded at federal level. Of course they then realized that their own daughters' abortions are now part of the public record.

This could really come back to bite the leftwingers.

I certainly can see what you are getting at. In an ideal world, HIPAA prevents anyone but your healthcare provider knowing anything about your healthcare. Unfortunately, we do not live in an ideal world. Who the hell knows what they are planning to do, or what they do behind closed doors? Certainly a scary thought.

Yeah, I want to see those governing our country held to the same medical standards as firearms owners. Their prescription records should be made public so we can decide if they are sane enough to run things. After all any one of them is way more dangerous than any single firearm owner.

That's a very interesting point. These are the people making the decisions who alter the course of the country. They really should be held to the same standard. Of course, that will never happen. When was the last time you saw those in power having to live by the same rules as us common folk?

They may end up banning more lefties and 'takers' (in more than one sense of the word) than gun owners.
