I am so sorry that this girl died but it has to do with the darned guns being available to begin with...but they really need to think about the consequences of making our medical information available to everyone, like Walmart clerks?

Are banning guns and sharing medical info with Walmart clerks really the only two options available here? How about a federal background-check system that screens for a variety of disqualifiers but only provides a yes/no response to clerks and gunsellers. This way, the clerk knows not to sell the gun, but they don't need to know the reason why. Maybe it's a background thing, maybe it's an administrative holdup...the clerk doesn't need to know, he/she just needs to know YES or NO. Thoughts?
