While I support keping weapons from mentally unstable people, I have great concern that about allowing the government to determine who falls into that category and then maintaining a database for same. That is EXACTLY what the Soviet Union did vis-a-vis those who did not tow the party line: Government shrinks labeled dissenters or critics as mental deficients, and they were subject to detention or outright imprisonment in the gulags.

And the leftist nature of our current government, who seem to be enamored of all things Soviet, would encourage it to gleefully take the same road.

Exactly right. They can dis-allow gun ownership based on some liberal shrinks opinion. That doesn’t fly.
