In the administration’s latest push to limit the Second Amendment
rights of its citizens, the term “mental health” is being bantered about
and used as common ground between anti-gun activists and staunch
defenders of gun rights.
Sen. Roy Blunt, Missouri Republican and NRA backer, objected to President Obama’s proposals but agreed the “focus should be on mental health.” Others, while proclaiming support for the Second Amendment, propose “a meaningful conversation about mental health,” or that we should “identify people who are mentally ill.” After all, how could anyone support guns in the hands of the mentally ill?
