Ed Schultz has recently been taking on the lunatic fringe, giving them the necessary air time to scare the living crap out of most of us, all the while exposing them as certifiable crazies. Like Larry Pratt, of Gun Owners of America. They want to protect mentally unstable patients from losing their guns unless ordered by a court. Think about that for a second. And if no ones around to get them in front of a judge, well....
As for Pratt's claim the governments plan will be going after fat people shows an ignorance of the current system in place. Insurers are already doing just that, so Pratt only has an issue with the policy if the government is doing the same thing. It isn't a "big government" idea.
What's clear is that many in the health care reform debate, Pratt especially, don't know what insurance companies are doing right now and don't know how broken the system is.
