2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.

All those Hollywood types with their mental health issues - sure will be interesting when their doctors start ratting them out to the government. Wonder how long until the ACLU says HIPAA's privacy clauses are not a collection of "unnecessary" laws.

4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.

Just add a check box to the form 4473 and if they select Democrat - refuse the sale.

7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.

Call the NRA, they have this program already - notice there have been no mass murders by NRA members or legal gun owners.

11. Nominate an ATF director.

WTF?

Is this a Presidential post-it note - remind self to do your damn job?

18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.

So you agree with the NRA - armed men in schools to protect children.

nasro.org - (check the double speak, not armed guards but armed SRO's - oh, that's different)

“The President’s proposals demonstrate that his administration fully understands the training and role of specially trained, carefully selected school resources officers. The White House proposals are right on target in this regard.” · “We’re happy that the President’s proposal does not mention armed guards. Instead, it refers only to specially trained school resource officers. There’s been a lot of confusion about armed guards recently and NASRO agrees that SROs are the only armed persons who should work on school campuses. To arm others, especially educators or volunteers, could be a recipe for disaster.”

· “The president is absolutely correct to advocate for a comprehensive emergency management plan for every school. NASRO has helped schools develop such plans for years. We’re ready and eager to help the administration create model plans for schools.”
