Therein lies the problem doesn't it. Public safety vs privacy. You end up finding yourself in exactly the same position as the NRA and I am sure you are both uncomfortable there. Should a doctor or psychologist be able to put an entry in the NCIC that would block a gun sale and how do you do that without also telling everyone else why. It does open up the question, what else would that information be used for? Would employers avoid hiring that person? Would landlords not rent to them? Would it affect their credit score? Would they have problems getting accepted to college? That would, in effect, be like having "a police record" with all the ramifications that implies. I would have no objection to requiring those seeking a concealable handgun to subject themselves to a serious "pass/fail" psychological exam by a licensed practitioner. This isn't foolproof, of course, but it might screen out some sociopaths. Of course, the screens would be subject to the wrath of the subjects. And of course, where would the results of the test be entered. I've never claimed keeping guns out of the hands of the crazies is easy, but we sure need to at least start a rational dialogue about how to do it. -- I'm a liberal because the militant fundamentalist ignorant science-denying religious xenophobic corporate oligarchy of modern Republican conservatism just doesn't work for me or my country. |
