Ron Paul campaign needs to ask the question:
Since McCain did nothing to halt the "Disarm a Veteran ACT" which passed in the Senate recently, and requires that if a veteran ever was treated for post traumatic stress, thus being labeled in military jargon as "mental defective" (if even for a short while) cannot keep their concealed handgun permit, nor purchase a new gun without undergoing a round of medical tests.
(In other words, someone treated for shell shock in Korea, or Nam, may have their CC permits denied, like a friend of ours has had done to him)
Being that McCain was horribly tortured in Viet Nam, and shot out of the sky, one would think perhaps he may have at one point also been treated when he was released from eight years of torture and captivity that would drive almost anyone mad.
Doesn't it make good sense for the party to demand that before turning thousands of ICBM weapons over to McCain's possible control, he be subjected to the exact same instant background check by an arbitrary gun shop owner, who can run McCain's name and social through the system?
If McCain comes up on the "government medical listing" he approved, don't you think we ought to reconsider letting him control thousands of ICBM weapons?
What do you guys and gals think? He is promising a "100 year struggle", so don't we owe it to our Great, Great grandchildren to at least run his name through the instant background check he and Ted Kennedy, Chcuk Schumer, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, etc. thinks is so fucking wonderful?
