Mental Problem Not Gun Problem

[peach174]

Here we go again with more gun laws or speech laws.
Why do the left keep trying to make more gun laws instead of getting right to the problem,which is this guy has a mental problem.
It is not a gun problem, it's a mental disorder and gun laws will not keep guns out of their hands. They need to be sent to a Mental Health facility.
He is a schizophrenic.
If we had Health Centers all across the nation, the college he went to could have gotten him into one of those places and away from the public.
Pima College has, as all schools and colleges, social workers and psychologist's.
If congress passed a law for schools, college's,hospital's so on and so forth to have more clout at assesing these type of mental problems, they could be sent to theses type of facalities and have gotten him away from harming anyone.
In other words, Make a law to protect the public from the mentality ill.
Not gun laws ,not speech laws.

If he had shot his insane words at these people you may have a point.

he shot a bullet from a gun so your point is kinda dead

 

[peach174]

Here we go. He was still able to get that gun because he was able to pass the stringent gun law's, that we already have. He had done nothing before this shooting, that is why he was able to buy that gun. Had he been sent to a mental facaility in JUNE 2010, HE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO BUY THAT GUN.

 

[Truthmatters]

the fact still remains that guns can kill people

It's quite a spectacle to see those who were clamoring for racial profiling and banning mosques suddenly circling the wagons around their own set of pet civil rights.

The answer is enacting stricter security at political events. If somebody wants to kill a specific target, along with others-they're going to get their hands on the firearms to carry out their plan regardless. Making it harder to get firearms wont stop them from doing that.

I don't see what's wrong with not allowing people to bring guns to public political events-they already ban guns in some public places as it is (schools, airports, courthouses, etc.)-I went to Times Square for new years and we got searched 5-6 times easily.

Anyways the bottom line is the only thing to blame was the person who decided to pull the trigger. Security would be much more efficient in helping to prevent events such as this, and wouldn't effect Americans in other walks of life, as making new gun laws would.

 

[peach174]

No people kill people.
How about keeping mental ill people in a facality to get them help and away from the inocent public?

Not gun laws ,not speech laws.

It's not just the rhetoric about guns and speech.

On Morning Joe today that Indian (or whatever) clown whose name I can never remember was bemoaning our entire society in general as the cause. Some people are just so friggin' stupid. There are kooks in the world and every now and then one does something terrible. Period.

....And, talking about (phantom) "...gun laws or speech laws..." that no-one-else seems to see.

Random acts performed by mentally ill people should not be the basis of broad public policy which places controls upon sane, law-abiding people.

 

[Sallow]

Sometimes sane, law abiding people do insane things.

 

[boedicca]

Then punish them.

That's what the law is for.

It's not for punishing law-abiding people for things they haven't done.

 

[peach174]

How about Rep Grajalva is going to bring a gun law bill to the floor?
How about Robert Brady wanting a law to stop Target signs that Palin put up?
This will not stop a mentally ill person

No doubt....like.....launching a War, based on LIES.

If it's a mental problem not a gun problem, could anyone tell me how he, a schizophrenic, got a gun in the first place?

 

[peach174]

Because he had not done anything yet and he passed the gun law's.
Had he been but in a health care center in June 2010, he would not have been able to get a gun in Nov. 2010.

So no one bothers to perform a psychological or psychiatric evaluation on someone purchasing a gun, whether they've been committed or treated for it or not?
