Actor Jon Voight reacted to the deadly Uvalde, Texas, school shooting by suggesting that Americans should undergo “proper testing” for gun ownership.
On May 28, 2022, four days after the heinous attack on Uvalde’s Robb Elementary School, Voight posted a video to Twitter and said:
It’s not about left right, guns no guns, this about brains that are disfunctioning, this is mental. This is not about healthy human beings serving the country with arms to bear or even the right of this constitution for bearing arms. It is a right to use arms with proper purpose to defend one’s safety, we must not allow mental illness to take away our right to bear arms.
Voight then spoke of those killed by the gunman, saying “These innocent souls…are children of God. I must remind us all that God will take home these angels.”
The Oscar-winner then posted a second video, in which he said, “We must identify every individual for their credentials for their mental capacity to bear arms. There should be proper qualifications for gun ownership, and proper testing. One should only own a gun if they’re qualified and schooled.”

Same could be said for the Presidency.
We need common sense gun mental health screening.
Every gun in the country should be required to pass a psych exam and undergo a background check including its social media posting history.
Enough of this, we must stop guns from murdering, raping, robbing and most importantly, disseminating misinformation.
We need to give guns longer prison sentances too.
No more blaming the trigger puller like Alex Baldwin.
Remember , guns murder, not people.
We must start a gun outreachs ,
and a no gun left behind education effort.
Gun reducation camps should be founded immediately !!!
Once guns have been successfully reeducated , we must register guns to vote Democrat only.
When the guns all kneel in solidarity with blm and renounce their systemic racism only then can we can heal as a nation.
See 17 this thread. 😊
This is what regulated means. “Kept in good working order”.
I agree. ALL citizens must be trained in firearms. Make it part of school curriculum.
Then make a rifle and a pistol available to all. Include psychological training in those classes.
I’m onboard with this
All tied back to health care, which for us is apparently now overseen and regulated by the World Health Organization.
Most disappointing. He’s trying to virtue signal for his Hollywood acquaintances.
Jon missed Big Time here,
Sorry for His Stupid words.
Jon is confused. You have the right to bear arms period.end.stop. if you abuse that right by committing a crime then you will be judged in a court of law and punished. Meanwhile the rest of us law abiding citizens will continue to bear arms.
For that to happen there would have to be a law.
According to she-la jackass lee, the nra was practically handing guns out at the convention with no background checks or anything. And, guess who will be back in the house of reps next term................
Guess who didn’t shoot up the school. A law abiding citizen.
“We must identify every individual for their credentials for their mental capacity to vote. There should be proper qualifications for voting, and proper testing. One should only vote if they’re qualified and schooled.”
Training is no more an answer than more gun free zones. The school in Texas was on lockdown when the shooter entered . We have the means; the rules just need to be followed. What makes people think a total prohibition would be easier to enforce?
And speaking of tests to get a gun, has Hunter Biden been arrested yet for the felony of lying on his ATF Form 4473, claiming he wasn't a drug user?
O.K., if we go with John’s idea, then why not require “mental fitness” tests to run for office, which would be a feat both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would fail spectacularly.
Somehow I am glad if a mass shooter has not had training on marksmanship and how to clear a jammed gun.
Yes 100 million law abiding gun owners didn’t shoot anybody yesterday.
Prostate exams will get the Left to line up and buy guns.
Then they’ll be ok with firearms.

I propose that any 20’year military retirees get to buy any weapons they choose on the government dole and are immediately deputised and Authorized complete discretion on taking criminal life. Kinda like Judge Dredd.
New 2nd amendment and all.
