[QUOTE="bettingpython, post: 2020795, member: 4307"] Doctors are involved, but if you check yourself in for a mental health condition voluntarily and have committed no crime then it remains private health care information. If you go see a mental health professional and they determine you are a danger to yourself or others yet refuse treatment then it becomes a legal record that will show up because a psychologist can hold you involuntarily under those conditions. The only true way to keep mentally unstable people from purchasing firearms is to give the government access to your protected health care information... do you want them to have that invasive a hook into your life? You go to the doctor your dog died, your moms sick, your wife is leaving you etc. and you tell the doctor your feeling a little down, having some trouble sleeping etc. and you get a prescription for a short term anti depressant you have just entered into a category where you can be precluded from purchasing a firearm and be prevented from getting your CCW because you have just been diagnosed as having a mental health issue. Yet you've done nothing wrong. The answer is and it remains no compromise. Unfortunately I see with this incident, Aurora and the affordable health care act that soon government agencies will have access to your personal medical records. All in the name of protecting us from ourselves. Is their a good answer for this issue? No there is not unfortunately. [/QUOTE]
