Mentally Ill buy Guns.

The National Instant Criminal Background Check System is not being provided with the names of people who have been involuntarily committed to mental institutions. As a result, some of these people have been allowed to purchase guns. And use them.
Legislation to make it manditory for states to provide these names to the NICS has been defeated twice, in 2002 and 2004.
Michael Faenza, president and chief executive of the National Mental Health Association, said "It's just not fair. On the one hand, we want there to be very limited access to guns. But here you're singling out people because of a medical condition and denying them rights held by everyone else."
Larry Pratt, executive director of the Gun Owners of America, said "Our idea of improving NICS is to abolish it. There is this continuing assumption that a gun buyer is guilty until proven innocent."

Political correctness strikes again.
Dear Mr. Faenza. They are being singled out because, unlike me, they have a diminished capacity. At least, that's what their defence lawyers claim.
Dear Mr. Pratt. Commitment to an institution is not an assumption. A person may be innocent until proven guilty, but these people have been proven guilty.
No guns. Nohow.
