Lithium is a very common treatment for bipolar disorder.

And people who are on anti-depressants have a higher rate of suicide and violent behavior than the general public.

Sorry, but here is where I once again bring down the ire of some of the more doctrinaire members of the FR RKBA community by contending that people who have been diagnosed with a mental illness for which violence is a known symptom, like bipolar disorder, should be deprived of their right to keep and bear arms by court order following due process.

That said, anybody want to guess whether a ski resort in Boulder County is a gun free zone?

I’m not arguing.

Some Mental illnesses and guns don’t mix.

Not so.

Like me, for example? On what grounds?
