If a community college can issue a report that someone is a threat, then that person should lose a God given right because someone says he's crazy?

He was thrown off the campus because he was threatening his teachers and fellow students. It was at the recommendation of a psychiatrist, and it was not lightly done. He was as certifiable as the clown in the movie theater in Colorado, and nothing was done about that either.

If you want to go on record as stating a violently crazy person has a right to a gun, go ahead but you won't find a lot of people who agree with you. Not even the counter worker at Wal-Mart who refused to sell him bullets that morning.

I wasn't aware of that, thanks for the info.

I never implied that, I merely stated that this is a dangerous road to go down.

Who will have the authority to decide who is mentally fit to own a weapon?

Who will set the criteria?

Will we amend the Constitution or will we just write more laws that punish good people for the sake of the few who are bad?

If you can by law strip individuals of their God given rights at the whim of a frenzied public, what good is the Constitution?

Actually, isn't that what the Constitution is designed to protect against (I.E. the whims of that masses, AKA democrats)

I submit that if rights can be taken away because of the whims of the masses, they are not rights after all, and none of them are really "God Given" let alone safe.
