    Are those the same doctors that will be on the federal payroll someday?

    I have a relative who is bipolar. I wonder where they draw the line and whether they will uphold their right to defend themselves.

    I would have rethought the thread title.

    This power, remember, is being given to a class of corrupt professionals who are almost universally on the take from Big Pharma, receiving routine bribes and drug peddling influence that encourages them to drug everybody with psychiatric drugs that drive people insane.

    Even worse, many doctors already believe that anyone who owns a gun is insane to begin with, and there's the catch-22: If you want to own a gun, you must be insane and therefore should be denied the right to own a gun.

    All this comes down to just one more good reason who fewer and fewer people are now visiting mainstream (conventional) doctors. They're now SNITCHES for the feds!


    So DJ, you think almost all doctors are corrupt?

    It's sad you try to be a member of the media, then buy off on shit like this.

    When I was younger, a relative was bipolar and had substance abuse issues. She scared us little ones at times and was quite unstable. I would not have wanted her to have access to guns though she was highly unlikely not to hurt anyone but herself. She didn't commit suicide though....she drank herself to death by her late 40's.

    Anyway I'm a moderate who tends to lean libertarian but there has to be a balance between the right to bear arms and freedom from whack jobs bearing arms. When the Founders wrote the 2nd Amendment, a rapid fire rifle didn't exist...let alone a Gatling Gun (showing up in the Civil War).

    People of a certain religion who are killing people on pretty much every continent in the world concern me a lot more though.

    In the end it didn't matter what you wanted.

    She had access to guns, she didn't buy one nor did she shoot anybody up.

    No new executive orders confiscating guns were needed.

    I'm too lazy to use the googles, but I would wager heavily the over that there are far more deaths due to alcohol every year than death by guns.

    We should ban alcohol. (Sorry, @Swaye)
