[QUOTE="Tanis143, post: 3132395, member: 43724"] I hear ya, especially since a majority of shrinks seem to be left leaning. What I was referring to on funding was institutionalizing those who would be a danger to themselves or society. Right now they put them on meds to make them walking zombies, the patient stops taking the meds, gets arrested and starts the cycle all over again. True mental health is way underfunded as it is. To get to the point where we could put people that pose a threat to themselves and society in a group home to make sure they take their meds is way beyond where we are right now. But it is that type of person that I feel doesn't need access to firearms. The ones that go through a stage of their life where they are deep in depression, I can see a case of removing their access to firearms. Once they get past that stage, their rights should be restored. But you are right, its hard for even an honest head shrink to make that determination. Its a fine grey area that has a lot of questions there are no answers for. [/QUOTE]
