It fixes a problem that really isn’t a problem.

Behind it is the notion that others should be responsible for your personal behavior.

Its a law that turns people into children without doing anything to stop mass killings from happening.

But the law lets lets liberals and hoplophobes feel good about themselves.

“Behind it is the notion that others should be responsible for your personal behavior.”

If it is very strictly confined to the mentally ill, that idea makes a lot of sense. They are rarely capable of being responsible for their own behavior, so someone needs to step up to the plate.

I know, I know - mentally ill can mean whatever the powers that be wish it to mean, so it is a wedge in the door in that respect, and will no doubt be used as such by the Left.

It’s the usual thing with them - nothing wrong with the idea, but the execution involves yet more nanny statism and big government.
