A few decades ago, no one would have been concerned about seeing men going about their business in public with a rifle slung across their shoulder, but the police would have been called if someone was acting insane in public.

Today, the insane wander the streets and no one is concerned, but carry a rifle in public and the police get called along with much handwringing.

We changed how we reacted to these two situations, and we’ve reaped the consequences. Perhaps we should change back.

In a discussion the other day on TV a Psychiatrist said in any group of people studied the data shows at least 20-22% had mental problems that could preclude them from owning a firearm.
If those figures are correct or even near correct could this mean that a group(say Congress) That one fifth of those SITTING in Congress are not competent to be writing laws?
