Watching the Republican Debate on CNN the other night, a question was asked by a UTuber (oops, I did it again) I mean a YOUtuber regarding the rights to bare arms as he was thrown an automatic weapon into his hands for the dramatic effect, yet stupid and dangerous.
The response to that question was they would refuse anyone who had a past or current history of mental illness or criminal records would be refused, not the everyday citizen.
Here's my problem with that, first off it is no secret having a family doctor in the U.S. is not feesable for most citizens finacially, so getting a proper diagnosis of a mentally unstable person who is not mentally insane but unstable with an illness as Bipolar (I refer to this one because I've lived with it and studied it over other illnesses). The issue many don't understand is not all mentally insane people start off insane and do random acts of violence out of the blue. Mental instablility always comes first and it is the untreated instablility that leads to the insanity over time.
Society does not realize how they can affect someone who appears fine socially, who works has a family and seems the norm in society, can be the one who if pushed the wrong way whether by words or actions may send that person into violent outbursts and it isn't always immediate so it isn't always recognized as the insanity is building.
There are many factors that sets off a person with Bipolar and many it's the person with Bipolar that can control this (this as I will explain later more ways to control the episodes that we are inflicted with.) but even with every effort of the person with the illness there will always be something that can turn and switch these moods into unrealistic thoughts mainly set off from life altering changes, usually negative.
There are a few ingredients that have to go with Bipolar to help keep the stablization or help to get out of the episode when one occurs and one being properly medicated and followed by your family doctor or therepist, especially if you haven't found the medication that works for you which is not easy in a country like the U.S.
The second is really good support group but it really is us as a society of family, friends, employers and very importantly police and military services who should educate themselves continually to recognize and know what to do in these times of crisis. The government will spend endless amounts of money on so many things to say the least ridiculous spending but the majority of their society is failing because they turn their backs on them, the voters.
Since 1 of 5 in the States has a mental illness, often undiaganosed, meaning everyone either have a family member or know someone who has a mental illness or has symptoms of it
Whether or not a treated mentally ill person, with a good support system and properly medicated should be refused to bare arms over someone undiaganosed really isn't the issue. Is keeping guns out of the hands of people with a mental illness the answer to less crime in America?
I highly doubt it since if you can't bare arms when your diagnosed with an illness then a mentally ill person will just bare bombs. Just ask Leeland Eisenberg holding Hilary Clinton's campaign headquarters if baring arms made a difference.
