Ok... now point out where this purposed law defines which type of doctors can make this disqualifying determination. If it doesn't list them, then some doofus with a Universal Life Church "doctorate" in comparative theology could make a mental health determination and get you disqualified from owning firearms.

The federal judge recognized the validity of a two physician commitment. They need to be physicians, either MD, a doc practicing allopathic medicine, or DO, a doc practicing osteopathic medicine. A crude way to describe the latter is a combination of MD & chiropractor.

Federal judge yes. We aren't talking about current Federal law. We are talking about how Congress and the BATFE will be applying the NEW standard set forth in this Bill. The new legislation doesn't define "doctor", nor does the BATFE regulations.

Give 'em an inch, and they'll burn your church down with you and your congregation still inside it.
