Government issued Laws are based on ideology and biases from each Administration and are selectively executed by each Presidential Administration. Each President executes Federal laws they believe in; while ignoring all the other laws on the books that they don't like.
Since they don't enforce the ones already on the books, can Congress prevent mass
murders through "more" gun Laws ?
We are still a barbaric society with uneducated and bias solutions to problems we create.
Apes Evaluating Apes
In the 1970's, my military doctor prescribed birth control pills that had a hidden side
effect of severe depression.
I began having suicidal thoughts, while lying under my
bed with a gun, contemplating whether or not,
I should end my life this way. The emotional side of my brain
was fighting with the analytical side of my brain.
The analytical side won...I did not want to kill myself, in spite of,
how depressed I was at that time..sobbing uncontrollably.
The doctor who gave me the pills, thought I was disturbed and sent a nurse in,
to listen to me ramble on about "something is mentally wrong with me…."
They did nothing about my problem, knowing I had a problem. After that, I began
seeing that nurse everywhere on the base, from a distance, staring at me.
I wondered what she was thinking, "Is she still walking around? Half whacked."
They Never once thought to ask if it could be the Pills they gave me.
I refused to go to the psychiatrist on the base because he would definitely have
marked my military folder permanently with 'mentally disturbed female with gun.' Period.
Kicked me out of the military or locked me up.
As usual, my guardian angels came to my rescue. Passing by a newsstand, I just
happened to see a topic on a MS magazine Cover emphasizing
"Birth Control Pills": Depressed women committing suicide. It saved my life.
I was one of the lucky ones who survived. I just stopped taking them.
Fast forward to 2005, my daughter's attempted suicides on pills and scissors
after being prescribed Abilify, Seroquel, and Zoloft with Zyprexa, on separate occasions.
On all occasions the doctor said it was not the medication, although her attempts
just happened to coincide with having taken these prescribe drugs.
Her death attempts stopped,
once she was clear of these drugs, while in the emergency room.
On the other hand, the right combination of drugs is a life saver and they are needed
to live within society and only issued by psychiatrists who are
sensitive to a patient's feedback.
"The fifth and sixth best-selling prescription drugs ..in the United States.. "are "…Abilify and Seroquel, two powerful anti-psychotics. In 2011 alone, they and other anti-psychotic drugs were prescribed to 3.1 million Americans..."

Deciding who has mental illness and who should own a gun is really a complicated
subject and too complicated for some Government laws; considering mental illness
comes in different forms of illnesses and behavior;
and, considering there are different uses for guns, as well.
Guns are used by the Police, Military and private Individuals.
They can be used in self-defense or recreational activities; and for
hunting food, such as deer, elk, turkeys, or rabbits.
I can only leave you with a thought of it's complexity.
Prescription drugs are prevalent.
Drugs can improve a mentally disturbed person's state of mind or they can make it worse.
Many people who are "not diagnosed" with a severe mental illness are
taking some kind of mind altering drug to balance their moods.
I once met a policeman who said he was taking Zoloft, an antidepressant. It was a life saving drug for him.
What if he forgets to take it, one day, while on duty?
I have neighbors who tell me that they and other family members are taking
a mood stabilizing drug. Some are taking Prozac; others, Zoloft. They seem
normal and sometimes, more normal than some people I know, not on drugs.
The government wants to leave it up to the psychiatrist to determine who is
mentally unstable and report them to the government. Would they report friends and family members?
How would he diagnose a policeman on a mood stabilizer, prescription drug?
How can he report a patient he is administering drugs too? Will he be held responsible?
Will the Gestapo haul the doctor off, if the doctor fails to report a patient who
later commits murder?
We have people who are not diagnosed with any mental illness, but take "recreational"
drugs to alter their mind and behavior. Even alcohol alters a person's mood and behavior towards others.
Mass Murder: Political Bias
A Gun is one way to mass murder people, and its an immediate way to defend those same
people from mass murder.
Most Liberals believe in some form of abortion and they voted their Liberal ideology which
put the most extreme Liberal President in the White House; the once, state Senator who
had voted for "partial-birth" abortions.
Congressional Liberals who believe in "Partial-Birth" abortion would be legislating
"Restrictive" Gun Laws on citizens who believe in Pro-Life?
An abortionist does not need a gun to kill a fetus. Since Roe v Wade became law, there have been
over 54 million abortions. Those that are recorded. And this is only one law.
How many other Federal Laws, that don't solve our problem or won't be 'executed'
would we need for every specific problem society "thinks" they have?
Congressional Law approves of fetus killings because it does not involve blowing the
fetus's head off with a gun in the Town Square. It's done behind closed doors in privacy.
How someone dies, only "matters" when based on the governing ideology.
Personally, I am Pro-Choice which means I am not an Extremist.
Some Extremists can't help being hypocritical because it's nearly impossible to govern one's entire life with half of one's brain.
Your mind will eventually wonder to the 'Far Side,'
if only to take a peek, before you become, secretly, overwhelmed by the forbidden.
It's in the DNA. Remember Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden?
How dangerous are Congressional or Executive laws that are based on "extreme bias" attitude
without regard to the complexity of the issues on mental illness and guns? Scroll up.
