Do you think all Vets with PTSD should be denied firearms ?
Do you feel that anyone that has ever taken anti-depressants should be denied.
Both have happened to people I know and I'd trust them with my life.
Furthermore, such restrictions have prevented people from admitting they have an issue and seeking help.
Mind you, I don't think people that have been committed and have continued treatment need the right to rush right out and become armed.
We just need highly defined language in such a bill/law.
Honestly though, anybody can get damn near anything.
It just takes money.
P.S. the NRA sucks !
No and no.
My half assed attempt at understanding the law led me to believe people receiving social security checks who were mentally incapable of handling their finances without a 3rd party were subject to this rule. If someone felt the rule unfairly hurt them they could object on a case by case basis.
I have no idea how any of this is kept track of. I had a friend who went off the rails. Couple stays in a mental hospital. He is stable to say the least. He should have some extra hoops to jump through at a minimum if he wanted to buy a gun.
There are people i grew up with that were always in special ed classes. And they will always be dependent on a government check and they will never be able to make their own financial decisions so someone else will do it for them. They shouldnt be able to buy guns.
