Do you tell the truth when you take job application personality tests? Have you ever lied? Have you ever been sad one day, and then happy the next? Who gets to decide who is too crazy to own a firearm, and what level will they set that at?
Most of these people have a history of mental illness. Like I said it wouldn't stop every incident, but it would empower people to do something about some of them beforehand. As far as who decides I would consider doctors would be the ones to decide the levels and do the evaluations.

Ever seen a trial of anyone.
Ever notice how they always have medical experts that directly contradict one another.
So again, how is it that one person finds the colorado theater shooter crazy, one not, and then which of those 2 decides

Doctors will say anything you want them to if you pay them. Their political leanings will also cloud their judgement and severely skew their personal decisions one way or another.
Also, what LEVEL of mental illness is enough to strip someone of their constitutional rights? See, it's pretty undefinable
Again, the only logical thing to do would be to try and set up more available mental health counseling. It is the only thing that people on both sides would agree on. The only people that wouldn't like it are people that don't want more taxes. You've just got to explain to them how it could benefit them personally and their city/state/country. I know the government will completely botch it because politics and money are involved, but that is the best, quickest, plausible solution IMHO
That is the best, quickest, plausible solution if we had a functioning government that wasn't chocked full of functional retards being puppeted by special interest groups, donors, and organizations

Remember, one side of the aisle wants a total gun ban. I'm not giving these clowns power over my constitutional rights.

Did this guy ever show signs of mental illness?
