Franken knows a lot about part of it, but not much about what happened in CT. Is that from his drying out days?
If no one wants to take measures to defend the children then don’t expect me to feel sorry for anyone when the attacks occur, because I am not going to.
The things that people don’t want attacked are defended by men with guns, and it is quite clear to me that school children are not one of those things, so be it.
How about we RELAX the privacy rules and the HIPAA rules and allow a public safety exception?
As it is now, parents might pay for the shrink, for their 25 year old kid, but parents are not notified, automatically, if the kid tells the shrink that he is thinking about killing people!
Shooting at Sandy Hook?? Let's approach this in two ways:
Strangely enough, he might actually have a valid point. Stopped clocks and all that...
The Minnesota Democrat, in Duluth to announce legislation related to mental health
*******
Such legislation will inevitably lead to more agencies, departments and bureaucracy. And more government “investments”, as liberals love to characterize spending.
How ironic.
Here is a mental health defective elected by the mentally defective voters of the sorry state of Minnesota pushing mental health.
Of course his mental health part of the ‘bill’ is to make certain that people die at the hands of criminals with guns.
Franken is a complete asshole who appears to have the IQ of somewhere under room temperature.

"Franken said the bill is an attempt to favor treatment rather than incarceration for those who are mentally ill."
So we will continue to let identified unstable individuals with a high degree of probability of committing violence to walk the streets?
Classical lib - “lets throw another government make-work program at the problem.”
Watch. The result of all this mental health talk will be more psychotropic drugs used. The result of that will be more mass shootings.
I have no problem with better mental health screening in schools. Some of these kids need SOMEBODY to pay attention to them and let them vent their issues.
Hey, I liked my guidance counselor in school.
My fear is with mental health screening of the population at large, and the potential political abuse of some who would use the law to label their political opponents “crazy.” This is a VERY slippery slope.
How about mental health exams for politicians?
Keeping mental cases out of elected office would save more lives than every kind of gun control imaginable.
ObamaCare will play a big part in determining who is mentally prohibited from owning guns.
The titles and summaries of Dem bills always sound good. The problem resides in what is buried within and the riders attached.
Trust him and his bill? No.
(at least not until they pass it so they can find out what is in it)
I get it. It’s the DemoRat mental health decade.
