[04:43] Isambard_Prince My mom said "I thought you don't like trannies." [04:44] schestowitz[TR2] this is quite offtopic [04:44] schestowitz[TR2] but [04:44] schestowitz[TR2] they should and already do prevent some [04:45] Isambard_Prince I said, "I don't, but the President can't decide who has the right to buy guns. The Constitution says that the people do, it doesn't say anything else, and the gun control laws are passed by Congress and say that the definition of "a mental defective" are people deemed as such by a judge at a court of law, and that happens if the person is a danger to themselves or others and that's why they are having a hearing about an [04:45] Isambard_Prince individual." [04:45] schestowitz[TR2] they prevent unstable people getting guns [04:45] schestowitz[TR2] or make it hard for them [04:45] Isambard_Prince I don't like where this is going. [04:45] schestowitz[TR2] many people who decide to reject their bodies are considered mentally unstable [04:45] Isambard_Prince schestowitz[TR2], If a particular individual is having mental problems to the point where they're a threat to others *and* the system has had to step in, then they are covered under that law. [04:46] Isambard_Prince But Trump is not a judge at a court. [04:46] Isambard_Prince No federal law says the President decides who can buy a gun. [04:46] schestowitz[TR2] you have a king [04:46] schestowitz[TR2] not a pres [04:46] schestowitz[TR2] maybe he can join in the chat of putin and pooh-tin [04:46] Isambard_Prince He's certainly trying.

[04:47] schestowitz[TR2] putin can have another 27 years [04:47] schestowitz[TR2] I'll be 70 by then [04:47] Isambard_Prince If you can prove a particular transgender person is "a mental defective" to the requirements of the law, at a competent court, then you can disqualify that one person. [04:48] Isambard_Prince You can't disqualify over a million people with an executive order.

[04:49] schestowitz[TR2] i doubt it [04:50] Isambard_Prince I don't know, but doing groups of people by executive order is illegal.

[04:51] schestowitz[TR2] BBC said "The number of transgender people living in the UK may have been overestimated by the 2021 census," [04:51] Isambard_Prince Congress and Trump used the Congressional Review Act to strike it down and using that Act means that the issuing agency can't make another regulation "substantially similar". [04:51] schestowitz[TR2] citing Office for National Statistics (ONS) [04:51] Isambard_Prince So the ATF and Social Security cannot determine that a person is a "mental defective". [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] if in the US you talk about it being a choice [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] like a religion fringe [04:52] Isambard_Prince Only a court can do that. Or a mandatory reporter under the law. [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] like iglicias in the us [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] then that's not the same as ethnicity [04:52] Isambard_Prince Which would mean if you were sent to a State hospital or something. [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] you cannot change your race [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] not even michael jackson could [04:52] Isambard_Prince But just getting Social Security for a mental disorder does not make you a mental defective. [04:52] Isambard_Prince Because of Trump. [04:52] schestowitz[TR2] anyway, back to tech [04:53] Isambard_Prince I think they should focus more on criminals anyway. They do a really lousy job at that. [04:53] Isambard_Prince And they should implement penalties for mandatory reporters who do not report. [04:54] Isambard_Prince Like losing their medical license, being decertified as a police officer, and facing criminal charges themselves. [04:54] Isambard_Prince There's probably about 400,000 people who should be in NICS who are not. [04:54] Isambard_Prince Just because someone who is a "mandatory reporter" didn't report them.
