The Tennessee mass public school shooter told mental health professionals......

[2aguy]

So I take you are in favor of red flag laws. When her psychiatrists were informed of her condition all her weapons should have been confiscated by law enforcement or she should have been prohibited from purchasing weapons. Good for you for recognizing that fact.

Nope…no need….she is already covered under existing laws, but like the Maine shooter, your God, the government, failed to take action…..

So you would be onboard with providing mental health care to folks in need?

Who will be the ones to determine who is in need, what defines "in need", and exactly what this care will consist of will be the sticking point, or at least it should be. Think of the current "threats to democracy" chanting right now. We all know who will pay for it. No one knows how it would likely be applied, or if mandatory testing would be needed.

We need to have this conversation but the two sides will rarely work together now.

Because the democrats have actually decide that being evil is no big deal and that elections are for suckers.

It was a hate crime, and the LGBT will not admit it

Right. And the laws are the red flag laws. I'm glad we agree.

Nope…they are the involuntary commitment laws we already have….,

Wrong. Red flag laws are an answer to these issues. Your OP was right. Don’t backtrack now.

Red flag laws are dumb....every state already has involuntary committment laws that should be used....Red Flag laws are simply tools of anti-gun extremists to use legal warfare against normal gun owners...

You do have to be pretty ignorant of our laws and protections to support them.

I don't think most people really understand how they actually work.

 

[Woodznutz]

it's the mental health community that has infiltrated our schools to groom kids Crep

~S~

Back in 1971 I met a young woman teacher. After a fairly brief interchange of ideas I thought "how in the hell is someone like this allowed in the same room with our kids."

 

[whitehall]

The victims were evangelical Christians and the perp was a protected member of today's society so there is little outrage (or coverage) in the mainstream media about this particular school shooting.

 

[Woodznutz]

One of the common threads among these shooters is that many were under mental healthcare. The psychiatrists are required by law to report such things. But they do not.

Blame guns? No. Blame doctors who neglect their duty.

Being under psychiatric care doesn't disqualify one from owning a gun.

No, it does not.

But mental health professionals are required to report certain things.

What things and to whom are they to report?

Most of it hinges on "involuntary hospitalization".

Remember when Trump praised Rittenhouse and had him to the White House? Somebody approves of vigilante justice.

Kyle Rittenhouse reverses course, says he will vote for Trump in November

'If you cannot be completely uncompromisable on the Second Amendment, I will not vote for you,' Rittenhouse said in a video shared early Friday.

WASHINGTON (TND) — Kyle Rittenhouse, the man who shot three people during a 2020 Kenosha, Wisconsin riot, said in a video shared early Friday he will not vote for former President Donald Trump.

Rittenhouse claimed Trump’s record on gun rights shows he would compromise on Second Amendment issues.

Trump said that year he met with Rittenhouse, and he praised his character during an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity. “He came over with his mother. Really a nice young man,” the former president said. “And what he went through, that was prosecutorial misconduct.
