Mental Disorders and the Second Amendment

Persons with personality and character disorders only acknowledge a problem when their behavior causes pain or difficulty for others.

Many mental health clinicians feel that procedures like those advocated above will prevent violent persons from seeking help.

If a potentially violent person is in treatment, such a process would prevent them from mentioning or exploring violent fantasies.

In theory, the ventilating of such violent fantasies are often felt to diminish violence potential or more importantly, help the person to understand the sources of their anger and how to change, control or extinguish the potential for violent behavior.

The experiences of community members on the community committees will increase public awareness of the issues and ensure careful follow-up of violent or potentially violent persons.

Some psychological treatments like "Anger management classes" help angry persons without established psychiatric diagnoses, but don't cure them, or completely cure potential for violent behavior.

The messiest and most dangerous of mentally ill persons are adolescent or young adult males with severe personality disorders.
