So James Yeager, the star of the youtube video post that went viral earlier this week has found out. Yeager, the CEO of Tactical Response, a Tennessee company that trains people in weapon and tactical skills, claimed in a video posted on YouTube and Facebook that he would "start killing people" if President Barack Obama decides to take executive action to pass further gun control policies.
Well the state of Tennessee has responded.
The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security announced today the suspension of James Yeager’s handgun carry permit after he was featured in a threatening YouTube video post that went viral earlier this week.
The decision to suspend Yeager’s handgun carry permit was based on a “material likelihood of risk of harm to the public” (TCA 39-17-1352).
Yeager, 42, of Camden, Tenn., allegedly claimed he would “start killing people” if the Obama administration took executive action to pass gun control measures.
“The number one priority for our department is to ensure the public’s safety. Mr. Yeager’s comments were irresponsible, dangerous, and deserved our immediate attention. Due to our concern, as well as that of law enforcement, his handgun permit was suspended immediately. We have notified Mr. Yeager about the suspension today via e-mail, and he will receive an official notification of his suspension through the mail,” Commissioner Bill Gibbons said.

Kind of reminds me of several individuals here who like to brag about what they would do if someone tries to take their guns, and those individuals who keep insisting they will "take" back their country from the "gubmint".

Doesn't stop him from having a weapon does it?
I bet this one goes to court. Wouldn't it have made more sense to give him a citation and have a court hearing?
And more than likely if Homeland Security tries to take individuals guns they will have a civil war. I don't think they want to go there. They, HS are stupid but not that stupid.

I suppose it would be better that those of use who believe in the 2nd Amendment just lay down and let Emperor Obama and his administration steam roll over anyone who might object to his view of how the world should be. Besides, why should any American Citizen believe that they have any constitutional rights? There is no more American way, now it's the way the Emperor says it will be.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

Boo hoo hoo......There is still an America, just because it isn't the one you would choose to create makes it no less America. The arrogance and audacity of you to think only you have the right to determine what America should be is breath taking.
Do you think Alex Jones is allowed to own guns? Been watching CNN of Huffpost live lately (or gone to infowars.com)? I am not sure he is helping that cause.

Speaking of gun-nuts, and "words having consequences".... Here's the latest on-air meltdown:
Alex Jones On HuffPost Live: 'YOU'RE IN DANGER! YOU'RE IN DANGER!' (VIDEO)
He then held up a book called "Ecoscience," and took his shouting to a new level. A rough transcript follows:
"THEY'VE GOT POISON IN THE WATER! POISON IN THE WATER! THIS IS A NORMAL RESPONSE TO THIS! THIS IS HOW THEY SHOULD HAVE RESPONDED TO HITLER! YOU'RE IN DANGER! YOU'RE IN DANGER! YOU'RE IN DANGER, EVERYBODY WATCHING! THEY CONTROL BOTH PARTIES! YOU'RE IN DANGER! WAKE UP! GET OUT OF YOUR TRANCE! THEY SHOULD HAVE RESISTED HITLER LIKE THIS!"
