Anyone who’s ever been depressed (everyone, sooner or later) qualifys.

Just like death panels, we’ll have mental stability panels. Anyone wanting to buy a gun will be declared, duuuh, mentally unstable.

Look at the class of people that the recent mass murderers came from. I suspect that politicians will try to stop some folks from having mental or criminal arrest records expunged/deleted by judges from the database (see feeding the officers of the court, greasing palms). So when well-to-do auntie Griselda’s rotten kid gets “cured,” his history continues to be publicly viewable forever. Maybe they’ll start outlawing everyone who’s been through a foreclosure, too. Some rather groups of non-felon, non-committed Americans have already been outlawed, too, by bipartisan Congress (see Violence Against Women Act, accusations, restraining orders, misdemeanors, others).

And as others have mentioned in this thread, all of the BS about enlisted rank soldiers and other military personnel all being crazy (PTSD, whatever). The old hags who operate politicians will outlaw firearms possession for all prior servicemen and women. You know, we former, enlisted-type soldiers are all sexists, homophobics, “arrogant,” etc.

Enlist in our military forces, be disarmed as a civilian. It’s not enough for most of our best to be generally defamed and jobless for life (the straight ones, anyway).

“...most everyone agrees we need better screening to ensure mentally unstable people do not obtain firearms...”

You skipped a step. What about “shall not be infringed” as several folks on this forum post?

If you “ensure mentally unstable people do not obtain firearms”, why is that not an infringement? The 2A does not say “the right of the mentally stable people to keep and bear arms”.
