re: Gun control

The point with that is that the VT shooter should never have been allowed to purchase those guns. They fact that he had been institutionalized within 5 or 10 years should have been a hold on the background check. Someone screwed up on that day, and no one will admit to it.

You don't need to have a psych eval to buy a gun, but I agree that being institutionalized or having a diagnosed condition that could cause a psychiatric break (schizo, etc.) should at least cause a hold and further evals before a sale could be completed.
