KC - I agree. It seemed to work the way it used to be, and I do absolutely believe that mentally ill people should not have guns. I’m just so darned concerned about the ‘who determines’ in these days of seeing so much corruption.

Was it not, 150 years ago, that the sane family member could take the insane to court and have them committed? It’s gone to the other extreme these days.

A good part of the problem is everyone thinks the mentally ill just need some help and they will get better. And some drugs do help until the person stops taking them.

The problem is that we need to bring back the institutions where these people get help and also are not on the street.
Too many mentally ill people are very good at convincing family members that they are under control, now, can I have my firearms back please?
