    I don't know if this guy is crazy, or not...but it's kinda scary how easy it would be to get labled nuts, and see your rights disappear.

    Yeah...but it still scares me, that it only takes one person to label you, and one person to agree with them, to take away your rights.

    I haven't watched the show Doomsday Preppers, but it was my guess (as well as several others) that the show was going to set out to make at least some of the participants look like nut jobs. Looks like they're succeeding.

    Sartii did a pretty good job making himself look like a whacko before the show came along. His Youtube vids are something from the Twilight Zone. In one, he has a pair of underwear hanging from a chandelier in his house. All that aside....I don't understand how a cardiologist has the credentials to declare anyone mentally unfit. You can bet your booty I'd find the money for a lawyer somewhere and the state and that cardiologist would have a legal fight on their hands.

    When you paint yourself into a corner you have few to blame but yourself. Had I not lost all my guns and ammo in those terrible canoe accidents I would be thinking about caching some.

    You had canoe accidents too?? I thought it was just klkak and Pal. Lordy, you guys really do need some of them outrigger type thingies. You must have lost thousands of dollars of firearms and ammo by now.

    Yet again, another unfair intrusion.
    People who are mentally unstable are no more likely to commit a crime with a firearm than drunks who get behind a wheel are likely to get into an accident and kill someone.

    I knew something like this was going to result from that show. The folks that put themselves on display were just asking for trouble.

    I haven't seen the NG show but I watched Sarti on the OP link and on another youtube vid where he talks about his EMP preps. Based on only those 2, there's nothing particularly whacko about what he said; a little eccentric, but definitely not crazy, IMO. I've heard worse from seemingly "normal" people.

    I never saw the show but I was aware of its existance. I remember the episode Rick mentioned, the one with underwear hanging on the chandelier and he's talking about his tactical vest and such. He struct me as odd then. But a cardiologist listing him as mentally defective is rediculous. I, too, would fight this in a legal battle.

    As a side note, kinda makes you wonder if the NRA attorney supports that he is defective if they won't accept his case? Covering their own tale?

    No, No No. Bubble gum for the mind is internet forums. TV is the machine for the mindless masses. It's harder to send subliminal (send me your money) messages on an (send me your money) internet forum. It's pretty (send me your money) easy on TV, however.

    This whole doctor ratting out their patients crap was started by this administration. Even the VA doctors are asking if you own guns. My response.... "why ever would I need a gun" (blink blink)
