NY Psychiatrists Served With Subpoenas For Patient Records In NY Gun Confiscation
New Jersey --(Ammoland.com)- NY Governor Andrew Cuomo’s Machiavellian Plot to ignore and subvert the Rights of potentially millions of NY State residents developed another layer late Sunday.
After breaking the story of Amhurst NY Area Resident David Lewis having his lawfully purchase and legally owned firearms confiscated by order of the State Police after a flagrantly illegal and Un-Constitutional review of his medical records , Word came to me in my capacity as in journalist late Sunday that NY Officials have apparently doubled down on their sinister plot and blatant abuse of power.
My sources revealed that two prominent and well regarded Buffalo Area Psychiatrists received subpoenas from State Officials, possibly on Friday April 12th 2013, commanding them to turn over all of their patient files to the State. Details are sketchy at this early stage, but I have been told that both Doctors have in house counsel as well as potentially consulting with the Law Firm of Jim Tresmond, Firearms Law Specialist and the Attorney of Record for Mr Lewis.
What is clear is that those subpoenas would have to have been issued by someone in the State’s Attorney’s Office. What remains unknown at this point is whether the order or request for the subpoenas originated with the Superintendent of the NY State Police, Joseph D’Amico or from the Office of the the Commissioner of the NY State Division of Criminal Justice Services or one of his lieutenants.

All this will do is make people not seek out mental health. If you do you lose a constitutional right.

Wow. These Doctors better follow the gun manufacturers to where ever they're going to escape NY or they're going to be driven of practice and/or sued out of existence or WORSE. Yikes! What a terrible position for these doctors to be put in.

This is how it will all start...

If you have anybody who sought out Mental Help like a person who lost their Child, Spouse Parents and was put on an Anti-Anxiety Med you could be *Identified* as someone who suffers Mental Illness and has lost your 2nd Amendment Rights..


This is just the beginning....

I wonder how many gun standoffs there are going to be when police try to unlawfully break and enter into someones private property and the person warns them they will lawfully shoot them if they enter the premises.

It is going to get interesting.

There should be an easy anonymous (at least to the suspect) way to share with authorities what could be suspicion of someone on the verge of "loosing it" and that could be a threat to himself or the commmunity. A telephone hotline for those who need help ans someone to talk to could help to.

But to take away all medical records from psychiatrists is so against the bill of rights, I mean that's an idea taken from Hitler's Germany, to cleanse the race and the state from those inferior creatures or whatever they may call them "danger to the state", "terrorist".

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 38003505


1938 Nazi gun laws closely and compare them to earlier 1928 Weimar gun legislation as a straightforward exercise of statutory interpretation several conclusions become clear. First, with regard to possession and carrying of firearms, the Nazi regime relaxed the gun laws that were in place in Germany at the time the Nazis seized power. Second, the Nazi gun laws of 1938 specifically banned Jewish persons from obtaining a license to manufacture firearms or ammunition.


Third, approximately eight months after enacting the 1938 Nazi gun laws, Hitler imposed regulations prohibiting Jewish persons from possessing any dangerous weapons, including firearms.

Unfortunately there are ALOT of gun owners on psych meds. VET's alone make up a large portion. The thing that gets me though, some people (children before and now) were forced onto these meds by schools, parents and doctors whilst still too young to make an informed choice for themselves. It is so fucked up that they have pretty much set it up so that alot of people fall into this category.

I have been telling people forever to get off all that shit, but nobody listens. maybe they will listen now.

Exactly,

How many of these Kids were vaccinated or given Medications for behaviour problems?

When I was in school if you acted up you went to the VP's office and received a firm *Swat* on your rear end...Mainly boys!

Now if you act up, they put kids on Ritalin or some other Chemically induced drug...

All I can say, is that if it happens in my state, and I happen to own a gun by then, and they happen to pick a medication I have taken at some point in my life as a reason to take my firearm, then they can remove it from my cold dead fingers.

Once the 2nd Amendment goes, all others will follow suit in rapid succession.

Then, the United States of America will officially be a corrupt Orwellian Authoritarian police-state.



It is the duty of all Americans to protect this land from enemies both foreign AND DOMESTIC.

Anyone enforcing this new unconstitutional law is a domestic enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

The crime? Treason.
The punishment? Death.

Re: NY Psychiatrists Served With Subpoenas For Patient Records In NY Gun Confiscation
There's case law on the books (in particular 'Tarasoff') that requires psychiatrists in some some states to inform authorites if a patient has made threats against a person or institution.

The 'Tarasoff' case, in short, involved a man stating to his shrink he planned on killing his ex-girlfriend. When the man did kill his ex, the state (and the victims family in a civil suit) found the shrink liable for failing to inform the victim of her patient's intent to kill. It found the shrink had an obligation to inform tptb if a patient expresses an intent to kill or cause harm.

As mentioned above, some states hold to 'Tarasoff' but other states threw it out (most recently Texas). I don't see how the NY State subpoenas referenced above won't be challenged. To make a blanket assertion that patients receiving medication to address emotional/mood issues have a propensity toward violence and as such should be denied their 2nd amendment rights is a big, big jump.

Even the Fonz couldn't jump that shark. Don't think it can stick.

What should be obvious by now is your govt doesn't give a flying hoot about its people. They want you disarmed - period. They will stop at nothing to achieve it whilst you all waste precious time debating over rights and privacy. Both of those are gone. The question you should be asking yourselve's is WHY? Why do they want the people totally disarmed and defenceless?

On a positive note, the industry of psychiatry, a rich and powerful one- I'd say, will fight this nonsense tooth and nail because, as has already been pointed out, this will not fair well for their industry as a whole. They will lose lots of money over a move like this. I have my suspicions about the practice of phsyciatry in general, but this can only help our cause, right? Both in terms of pulling people out of their drug rendered haze to the reality of the day and having some big money and power backing the illegality of these subpoenas.

It's not even emotional or mood issues. This has been in the works for a while, and NY is the first state it will fly in.

What do they prescribe to people who can't quit smoking? Welbutrin.


Zoloft is given to women experiencing "severe hormonal imbalances" (from events that physiologically cause severe hormonal imbalances).

Some SSRIs are being researched (and possibly used) as anti-virals.

No guns for those people, who probably got the Rx from a regular ol' doctor and had absolutely nothing wrong mentally.
