BBC News - Shooting at US Army's Fort Hood base in Texas


The US has a mental health problem. Let's focus on the real cause of this bullshit instead of sweeping it under the rug.

Well you would have to change some laws and give away some freedoms for public safety and most people are unwilling to do that. I am talking about laws about detaining people against their will for mental health evaluations. Almost every mass shooter lately has been described as troubled or strange by people who knew them. Unfortunately if you are an adult, don't commit a crime or go completely berserk in public nothing can be done to have you mentally evaluated against your will.

Good ,if people act "crazy" , go "berserk" or commit a crime of hate or aggression then they shouldn't have guns .

I think you need to really think about the part he mentioned that I bolded and underlined. Detaining people against their will for mental health evaluations? So who's going to decide that? The government? The local law enforcement? Do you trust those morons and corrupt agencies? We know exactly how this will turn out. "Oh, they are a political enemy or somebody protesting my crimes.....better have them hauled in because I think they are crazy."

No thank you. Absolutely not. It's already to a point where we are becoming more and more of a police state. It won't be just gun owners and the NRA against some bullshit like that.
