There is no way to check every person in America for "mental illness." How many times do we hear of some nut offing his family only to hear neighbors say "he was such a nice quiet guy ... a good person... I'm shocked this happened!"?
OTOH when we get the Nikolas Cruzes, we find police visited his house three dozen times ...nothing .... he aimed a gun at his mother (assault with a deadly weapon) nothing ....two people call the F. B. I. and report him and ....yup, NOTHING.
The banners want it both ways. It doesn't matter if they can "detect" shooters or not. They just don't want us armed. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
