Wow. Wtf, indeed, eric. Great find. I think it's time to write to my Congressmen.

Nooo! They be taking my guns! But I want to shoot people!

"Out of my cold, dead hands..."

Paxil can make you lose your gun. Can't get a pilot's license either. You can fly depressed, as long as you don't tell them, but you can't fly if you are healthy and taking paxil. Wtf?

Personally, I don't like guns. I don't even like the _idea_ of everyone in my neighborhood wanting, or feeling like they must own a firearm. But there is a big difference between the presence of these weapons and the subtle erosion of the right to lawfully acquire such a thing; not in as much as the specific issue of guns, but the erosion of rights in general. If they do it with firearms, then all it takes to happen to a different issues is replacing the nouns in the document.

Please take a look at this video. Its absolutely frightening what the governments doing.

Yeah, that is a potential side effect of SSRI anti-depressants.

Well put, Jonny.

No one is fucking with my Seratonin.....

reminding everyone who lives in a state of fear of their government....

Enforcement requires complicity- should the decree be put forth, not that it ever will unless those who wish the guns out of American's hands create themselves, a state of emergency that would convince people to comply, which they will not, They, whoever THEY are, will have to create that situation of unrest or emergency. Now, this has been done recently, so they have their practice, their FEMA, their OHS, and numerous brown-shirts in our present USA, to foment the newsspeak and politically correct-isms, and these will no-doubt be the only thing on the telly, besides advertisements for frozen green beans and lady's underwear......and most of the monkeys, will believe it when they hear it repeated about 3 times, cause the country is fulla dysfunctional, and developmentally-disabled anyhow.....

So....come on over to choggie's house, we'll have some fun over a cup of blood. Got 2 o' them process-servers on the smoker, have a snack!

The irony is, an untreated depressed person is much more a danger to themselves and others than is a successfully treated patient on an SSRI. The FAA denies pilot's license on the basis SSRIs are "mood altering" substances. Again the irony is the mood is supposed to be returned to normal (whatever that means).

People take SSRIs for less serious conditions as well, such as "social phobia". But, I guess people just have to decide if they want to be nervous around people, fly and shoot, or feel comfortable, stay on the ground and hunt with a sharp stick.

By the way, I don't own a firearm either. Wait, I take that back. I have a pellet rifle I use to harass the squirrels that try to demolish my property. I don't have a pilot's license either. The only time I fly is after a few single malts which seems to take care of my social phobia at the same time.

I don't own a gun, nor do I think psychiatric profiling is necessarily a bad idea when it comes to determining if somebody is capable of "properly" purchasing a firearm. I do, however, realize the ramifications of giving this right to the federal government. First off we'll be losing one more freedom in a loophole. Secondly, we'll be shoving the distribution of firearms further and further into the black market. That's when people get hurt.

SSRIs have some very adverse side effects in a non-trivial percentage of the population which typically include increased aggression and suicidal behavior. Frankly, SSRIs should be banned. They're often more harmful than good and there are alternate medicines that work as well or better with fewer side effects. For medications such as Zoloft the clinical trials were heavily manipulated where patients that committed suicide were removed from the results after the fact, even though the suicide rate for the control group was significantly lower.

Gun owners on SSRIs should have their guns taken from them until they are safely off the medications (after withdrawal symptoms have subsided) and then returned, no questions asked and no records.

There are beliefs which are shared pretty laterally across cultures. Human rights, fairness, compassion.

It always strikes me how odd and isolated it is that only the US clings to gun ownership with such passion.
The rest of the world that is modern and stable has accepted that owning guns generally leads to shooting them at people. Pretty antisocial & harmful.

But for some reasons in the US alone, people are both patriotically proud of their government... and desperately so afraid of it that they fear, without a gun the govt will round them up and enslave them. Or the godless neighbors will come rape their women.

So... do you trust your government or not? Is the bill of rights and constitution protecting your freedom? or is America a lawless hell where you need a gun to survive?

I have a lot of guns and have to say this is all horse shit.

You have to go to court or have a magistrate sign off that you are mentally incompetent and are committed (involuntarily) to a mental hospital for more than 30 days. It's on 4473 question 12f. This is paranoid horseshit.

If you really believe the gubbermint is going to take your guns in the middle of the night because you take Adderall for your spazzy self to function, shoot yourself.

Imposter!

Maybe I missed something, but what is wrong? Is it the fact that mentally unstable people can't get guns, or the fact that the government might abuse this power?
