Co Dem introduces a bill defending 2nd amendment rights.

[MrPrena]

Flip flip and knee jerk reaction is what Democrats do. Their last term of any seat is when their real agenda comes out.


Sorry.

If i used your logic on this subject a UBC, assault rifle and mag bans would make perfect sense, hell, why not just ban guns entirely.

I disagree as UBC gun/ mag bans effect EVERYONE PERIOD not just a segment of the population.

However i am not about to condemn a section of society that has been handed out drugs like it was popcorn. I can not take away a persons rights because a minute population does harm when influenced by them. We humans want to blame but we have no proof why we are blaming most of the time. Think of it like this, can you blame Viagra for a boner, yes, but can you blame Wellbutrin for a murder, no. There is no scientific proof it does and i bet it helps more then it hurts. We need to bring mental health to the front lines before anything else in figuring out the problems we face. Does that mean i want the FBI/CBI to know your health records, no. If someone trained can pin point a problem i think it should be looked into before suspending someones rights.

I agree with the "handing out like popcorn" and I think this is a LARGE part of the issue. instead of treating these "kids" they just feed them drugs and never really help them just mess up their heads even worse.

I've stated more then once in this conversation that yes they help more then they hurt. ( aka many take them and never hurt anyone)

As you say it's such a fine line between privacy and "need to know" with mental health issues. It's the same with .mil guys not getting PTSD treatment for fear of it jamming up their career in the future / looking weak to others. They need the help but won't get the help out of those fears and I think we will see a carrying over of this to private citizens with the federalization of healthcare. ( Obamacare is step one of this in my opinion) While I'm glad these scum( mass shooters) off themselves on the one hand.. if they would stay alive more often we could study them better and make some progress on prevention thru mental health intervention.. at least that is my thought on it .

I think that if it was brought out more in the national scene that all these guys seem to be on anti-depressants it would move the "conversation" in a better direction ( from gun bans to prevention) and actually push the research harder.

Just think if all the money bloomberg and the anti's spend on trashing the NRA and innocent gun owners was spent on mental health research instead....
