#1 What if they are psychotic? They don't need guns.

#2 Given that description, Obumble and most liberals should be barred from owning guns.

#4 I'm surprised he didn't open up the licensing to force the future retaliation against Republicans after they were forced to tighten it back up.

#7 Obumble and most liberals should be barred from owning guns.

In true limo-liberal fashion they simply stand behind their phalanx of heavily armed guards and demand that everyone else be disarmed.

#8 I think the rule as written is fine. We're only talking about people on full disability for mental illness AND who have a legal gaurdian because they are incompetent. If they can't sign their own checks or manage their own affairs, maybe they shouldn't possess firearms. The worry is, of course, this is just one small step toward the ultimate goal of banning firearms completely. But we should consider reasonable acts like this.

#9 Sorry JC but that is just the camels nose, or a hair of the camels nose. It's called precedence. Once they establish precedent of denying the 2nd for one group for a subjective medical reason they will start expanding it to include other subjective conditions. Each widening the breach just a little bit.

It's how we ended up with something like Roe vs Wade. Or any number of Federal incursions into states rights

#10 McClatchy reports that following the shock of the election, liberals in increasing numbers have been buying guns and taking shooting courses.

#11 Then we do need protection from gun-wielding libmedheads.
