The Rifleman

Ok, here is your problem.

You got a big mouth just like me.

You don't know when to shut it up - even when it is for your own good.

You quit your job - working for the state.

When you signed up for the job, you were made to sign a contract.

Your job was to take care of the people that were criminals that no one else wanted to take care of.

There is a shortage of people willing to work in them places for a reason.

The reason is because the pay - per the risk of being injured and killed is not worth it. You could make just as good money working ina factory and having weekends off.

Just that you didn't know what you were getting yourself into and now that you got yourself in - you didn't know how to get yourself back out.

You opened your mouth and said all the wrong words - in duress and they took it the wrong way.

In fact all you had to say was that it was not working out and you wished not to work there anymore and have a good life - and they couldn't do anything about it because there is no law that says that you have to work someplace - other than joining the military - that you have to stay once you sign a commitment form.

If they did the proper assessments on you before they let you into the program - the mild depression would have came out because it is something that you would not have had been able to hide from them.

Instead, the depression came out once you were working in a lock down situation where you were surrounded by these people and could not get out and knew that you were going to have to do this job for the rest of your life and knew that if you had to do this job for the rest of your life that you would not be happy doing it and wanted to quit.

So all you had to do was quit!

If you did something that was against the law, then they would have had to arrest you and charge you with something.

When they arrested you - they would have had to read you your Miranda rights. Which states (YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT. IF YOU GIVE UP THAT RIGHT, ANYTHING THAT YOU SAY CAN AND WILL BE HELD AGAINST YOU! DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT RIGHT? )

The people that you were working for = is the same people that put these people behind bars. They are not your friends they are the police.

You didn't have to say anything to them.

You didn't have to surrender your guns to them.

You didn't have to willfully commit yourself to a mental institution.

You didn't have to agree to seek counseling.

Now they have your guns because you told them - THE LAW -that you have mental problems and you are depressed and you might hurt yourself or others.

So now even though you do not think you have a problem. You have the law pissed off at you and they think that you have a problem.
You will not get your guns back until they deem you fit for society.

Even then, because they knew that you had a problem with depression and you were hospitalized for depression - you have a problem.

The next time that you go to buy a gun at a gun shop when they go to do the NCIC background check, guess what? Your name is going to come up that you have a problem with depression and were hospitalized for it and they will probably deny you the sale of a firearm.

Pennsylvania had background checks before any other state in the US.

They held handguns for 3 days after you purchased them - before you could take them home. They did a background check and called the State Police and also the Sheriff to see what kind of person you were and if it was ok to sell you a handgun.

They also came out with a personal protection permit, that the sheriff sold for $20 every 5 years and if you paid it, you could buy a pistol and take it home the same day. Because the sheriff did the background check before he issued the permit.

Just that now it is a federal affair and everybody must go through the background check every time they buy any firearm in Pennsylvania.

So the amount of firearms being sold in the trade papers is almost down tonothing - because it is against the law to sell a firearm face to face without taking the gun toa licensed gun dealer and doing the transfer and paying the salestax and getting the background check done.

You are going to have to pay a lawyer and a psychiatrist to do a study of you and determine that you are mentally stable.
Then you are going to have to go in front of a judge and show him that you are mentally competent and then you are going to have to pay a lawyer to have your record expunged. The slate wiped clean so none of this will ever show up on your permanent record.

So the couple of pennies that you made working in a prison someplace for a couple of weeks or months - will all go to paying a lawyer and a judge and a psychiatrist.
