The Violent, Mentally Ill and Drug Abusers Not Allowed to Purchase Firearms

http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/145801-senator-wants-to-mandate-background-checks-for-all-gun-sales this is NY
now this artical is a little bland
but to say someone has abused drugs or is mentally ill
does that make them a threat or a danger
i mean its possible but where are we drawing the line
i hear statistics all the time about white people that were abused turning into the majority of serial killers and such
is this because of the new hip hop culture?

Of course violent mentally ill drug abusers should have guns. Lots and lots of guns. I'm sure Zap will agree. He lives in NY I believe.

Here in Tennessee, you can get a shotgun or rifle if you've been in a mental hospital, but not a handgun.

It's against federal law to purchase any firearm if you are in either of those categories, and it has been for a long, long time.

Here in St. Louis, violence and mental illness are required to purchase a gun. The guy on the corner told me so.
If someone wants a gun, there aren't any "requirements" that are going to stop them.

Regulating guns is just like regulating drugs. Get rid of them and the only people who will have them are the fucked up ones. murder rates wouldnt change imo. That nutbag was gonna shoot giffords no matter what, legal or illegal.
I do however think that it should be alot harder than it is now to get a gun.

What, make it harder to legally get a gun? What about the fact that will have zero effect on how easy it is to get a gun illegally by those who don't give 2 shits about the law? (like myself). Your way of thinking only punishes the law abiding government cattle
A determined individual who wants to kill someone can. That's the bottom line. Any amount of legislation will never change that. And its our constitutional right to bear arms.

  "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." I think we should cut all the social parasites from their welfare checks. Then they will either find a means to support themselves or starve to death, either of wich is good for the economy and society. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

Craziness aside. Does anyone recall when doctors in the UK were calling for a ban on all large pointed kitchen knives because they noticed a rise in injuries caused by them, most of them linked to violent acts. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/4581871.stm
