This gun would be better marketed as the Kevorkian Special. |

The system is nuts, might as well prove it in as grand of fashion as possible. I think this does. Only thing better would be paying for large print Bibles. |

Hah Gun Nuts Hoist On Own Petard!
So, guns are FINE, until someone starts horning in on your action eh, Dense Righties? People have a rright to defense until it costs ME money, eh? Whre’s your "compassionate conservatism", NOW!? So it’s not only gay, lesbians, womyn and People of Colour you all hate and wish to die, but also the old, the sick and the lame....Man just that just sound Soooooo familiar....arbeit macht frei anyone? You all can’t stand empowered Crippled People can you? You wait until Tuesdays "Pro Seminar" when I unleash on you...I’ll blog about it.
I say a National Health Insurance Plan that does not include Palm Guns, is NO National Health Insurance Plan at all!
No large Print Bibles...Seperation of Church and State...practice your Christianism on your own dime. |

McQ or somebody, don’t you think you should put a big banner on the homepage that says something to the effect of "NO, WE DON’T REALLY LIKE BUSH"? The number of people who comment on this site and think that "Bush did it!" is some sort of proof that you’d like it is sort of annoying. |

It’s not actually the right to self defense that Medicare is paying for; it’s the disability assistance device to allow the patient to engage in an activity that is part of daily living on the same basis, or as near as possible, as a non disabled person. And under a system that does some arbitrary things—apparently, Medicare would rather may a monthly "rental" for wheelchairs for years than pay one upfront lump sum, but will pay for no more than one pair of eyeglasses, and that only immediately after cataract surgery—just be glad that the bureaucrats instead of nixing it because OMIGOD ITZ A GUN! decided that guns are a part of ordinary daily life.
Of course, to criticize Medicare on the grounds that anything it pays for is not legitimate is a totally different thing. |

Justify that.
Hey, I know - I can’t drive a regular car because my back hurts but I want to go to the mall, allowing me to engagein an activity that is part of the daily living of others. How about classifying a van for the handicapped as a "Class 1 medical device" so you, er, Medicare can pay for it, ’kay?
Oh, and about that house I want ... |

People have a rright to defense until it costs ME money, eh? Thanks for weighing in with usual,Joe. But actually, to make it clear...yes.
Your rights concern the control you exert over your own person or property. Once you involve another person’s life or property, you are no longer talking about rights. |

"a Class I Medical Device"
They are obviously working in concert with the anti-gun folks at the CDC and the AMA to find a new way to regulate, i.e. ban, guns. There is, after all, no constitutional right to bear Class I Medical Devices.
"allow the patient to engage in an activity that is part of daily living "
Not in my ’hood, it ain’t.
At first I thought it looked like an asthma inhaler. That could be awkward. They might want to consider changing the design a bit, including a written warning (something like the warning on a claymore mine perhaps-’this side towards enemy’), for product liability reasons. |

Actually it does look like some kind of inhaler. But perhaps that’s the desire. To have more gun accidents.
Honestly, if that was sitting carelessly around, I would be tempted to pick it up and try figure out what it was, including triggering it. |

The story behind this is a little more complex than simply wanting this approved by the powers that be so it could be paid for by others. It was a thumb in the eye of the system that attempted to make this product even harder to buy by declaring it an Any Other Weapon (AOW).
As a certifiable gun nut, I don’t think this is a very effective form of self defense, but it definitely is better than nothing for those who cannot grasp a typical pistol. |

I would say Dale needs a Class 1 Medical Device, for the humour/sarcasm impaired.... |

Here’s my argument for getting a new toy at the taxpayers expense..
I’m a really bad shot, so although I can afford a decent handgun, it just doesn’t get the job done, so I require Medicare to pay for one these for me, which makes aim pretty much irrelevant...
M60 machine gun MARK 43

Captin, why that? I recommend the M40a1 106mm Recoilless Rifle with the APERS beehive round...6,000 or so steel flehettes. You don’t ahve to be agood shot with that...a little hard on the dry wall, mayhap. |

I recommend the M40a1 106mm Recoilless Rifle ... What a great weapon. How old am I? Well I was a weapons platoon leader with the 82nd Abn Div and my AT section had 106s, that’s how old.
And anyone who has ever been on 106s can tell me where the spare woodruff key is stored. Any old 106 gunners out there?

Update - It no longer has that classification as a medical device. So you can all rest now. |
