General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: so people didn't get my post about guns [View all]> Why is it that people with your view can't post in a civil manner?
Oh, you don't like it when an obvious fantasy is pointed out?
Who is going to "find" all the people who aren't clearly insane - but are troubled enough to go on a rampage?
Who is going to "find" the people who put on a good front and appear completely normal - like so many of the shooters in the past have?
Who is going to "find" the people who really are quite sane, but have an anger issue, and something makes them snap?
Multiply those things by thousands/hundreds of thousands of individuals.
This whole attempt to divert gun control into a fantasy about mental illness treatment is an obvious, obvious, obvious attempt by the NRA to change the subject. And it's a mega-fantasy, much more so than an amendment or more strict gun control. Sorry you were offended; but pointing out"realistic solutions" that are obvious fantasies, and attempts to divert, are a pet peeve of mine.
