Disabled gun owners
should not be disarmed

By Gabriella Hoffman. March 2nd, 2016

Physical disability mustn't nullify the right to keep and bear arms

Americans who wish to keep and bear arms have an inalienable right to do so regardless of their standing in life.

There is a concerted effort by the government, particularly state governments, to disarm disabled Americans who wish to defend themselves with firearms. Why? Government bureaucrats believe disabled individuals are incapable of being self-sufficient without government assistance. To further complicate matters, housing complexes receiving government aid in the form of Section 8 housing believe firearms pose a safety risk to their tenants.

The most recent target of this dangerous disarmament ploy is Harvey Lembo of Rockland, Maine, who is facing eviction from his apartment for merely owning a firearm. Mr. Lembo, 67, is a retired police officer and lobsterman who is bound to a wheelchair. .......

Another example of "any excuse" to deprive people of their rights. There are large numbers of wheelchair-bound people, many of whom are veterans, who have every right to have a means of self-defense - maybe more so it might well be said. Furthermore we have the housing associations also targeting legitimate gun owners, all in the absurd name of 'safety'.
