When people have children with mental health issues they should not be so armed. It is not a rights issue but common sense.

You, sir or madame, are full of crap. That murderous little brad should have been locked up in and asylum. Those kind of mental health "issues" should not be loosed upon society. Unfortunately, asylums for the insane have fallen out of fashion due to those like you who want all of society to bend to the lunatics instead of the insane being cared for in a secure environment.

I tend to agree with you, but I’ve been criticized for making similar statements. If you’ve got a dangerous nut in the house, I think it should be treated the same as if someone in the house is a felon. The other members of the household should have to store their guns off the premises and in a manner such that the nut can’t get to them easily.

I really don’t like it any more than anyone else, but when the common thread in many of these incidents seems to be a known psycho getting their hands on a gun far too easily. Unfortunately, I think this is at least one step we’re going to have to strongly consider.

I respectfully disagree. I believe that they have just as much of a right to be armed as anyone else, however, they should not let their children, especially those who are mentally ill, around any of the weapons.

By making the guns readily accessible, maybe she was hoping he would end her pain and suffering and shoot himself?

Oh, it's about common sense, is it? Where have I heard that phrase before?

O.K. Who gets to define common sense? Who gets to define what are considered "mental health issues"?

Don't be a useful idiot and advocate going down that path.

OK let’s follow your thought. What could come out is some gubmit mental test or have their inspectors investigate you to make sure you or anyone in your family is not crazy.

The likely “crazy” test will be very common sensical to the anti-gun liberal progressives, “You have to be crazy to have guns. You must be crazy if you think the gubmit does not have your best interests in mind. So if you want a gun or don’t trust liberal progressive government you fail the test, No guns for you.

Folks, a simple gun safe would have been the answer. No need to get rid of the weapons.
