Who determines what crazy is?

Who enforces the rule that crazy people don’t have guns?

Does the federal government have crazy people in it?

Does the federal government own guns?

[BunnySlippers]

See 22.

If it comes down to defining crazy or me and 10s of millions of responsible people losing their right to gun ownership ... then I’m going to define crazy. So be it.

Crazy people in government?

[Rusty0604]

The gov’t will decide what is crazy. Being conservative will constitute being crazy. Also the healthcare law will make it mandatory to report gun ownership and anything the the gov’t healthcare workers deem as crazy will be reported and then the guns will be taken away.

It sounds to me that the biggest problem here was that this kid's mental illness was never adequately addressed. That's been an issue for many years in this country, when decisions were made to release the mentally ill from hospitals to lower costs, and to allow the mentally ill to be treated by drugs and talk therapy rather than institutionalizing those who in the past would have been considered dangerous to themselves and others.

Unfortunately, many of today's society would rather take away the guns than hospitalize the seriously mentally ill.
