Here is my thing, how many gun related incidents, robberies, etc are related to mental health issues? Even moreso how many of them were diagnosed prior to the incident? I mean think about it, aren't most perfectly "sane" and more related to desperation, fear, etc? Does that mean the poor shouldn't own guns since they are more likely to commit a robbery? Should we take away the guns or should we put more energy into jobs programs, mental health programs, anti-bullying programs, empowerment, etc.
