Was thinking about the line on the Gun App that asks if you have ever been under a doctors care and the rash of (mass)murder/suicides. I concede that we really don't want a someone who is committed to an institution to have access to any weapons. But lets say the average person is in a funk, lost their job, house, spouse, dog died, whatever and decides that maybe (s)he should talk to a shrink. It seems to help but since no one is "cured" overnight decides to have regular sessions, once a week, once a month. By admitting they MAY have a issue and seeking help before it gets out of control does that now disqualify them from from owning or buying? If so wouldnt you think that would discourage people from seaking help before it is too late?
