Veterans Administration program will map Americans’ genes to label citizens with ‘family health conditions’ and mental health disorders
‘A new scheme by the federal agency tasked with caring for military veterans threatens to use servicemen’s genes as a weapon against their constitutional rights. The so-called “Million Veterans Program,” a voluntary research program by the Veterans Administration (VA) branded as “improving health care for veterans” is actually a data-mining operation intended to tag veterans as “mentally ill” in order to deprive them of their right to purchase and own firearms as guaranteed under the Second Amendment, warns a prominent lawyer.
Attorney Michael Connelly, executive director of the United States Justice Foundation and an Army veteran himself, wrote recently that the program is a ploy to put veterans’ names on the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) watch list. In the event that a veteran is deemed to have “mental defects,” he or she would be prohibited from purchasing firearms, Connelly says.
“As a veteran and constitutional lawyer I find this very troubling,” he writes. “I encourage all of my fellow veterans to carefully read this questionnaire and consider whether you can reap any benefits from participating in this program.”‘
