[QUOTE="Red Dirt Walker, post: 4054266, member: 51065"] I can understand the reasoning here, but the problem I see is inexperience on the part of the FFL as it takes more than a few hour class to learn how to read people enough to make that call. If the FFL is on the spectrum, it may be impossible. This also opens up to bias on the part of the FFL to deny a person a firearm based upon something with the FFL. I think if any means are agreed upon to limit the sale of a firearm to an individual it needs to involve treatment that the person is currently under. That said I see the possible problems with that approach also. I'm just not a fan of pointing out a problem without having some solution and in this case the way I see it is that we have a mental health problem relating to firearms. The people with the mental health problem need to be limited somehow in obtaining a firearm until treated for the condition. [/QUOTE]
