I took my brother in law to a gun range near me that does skeet shooting as well as rifle sighting and all kinds of stuff. When we got there we were told a group had rented out the entire range. We shrugged and headed back to the car and I noticed most of the cars were small compacts with LGBT stickers and stuff. My BiL went back into the range to ask who had reserved the whole place and the dude behind the counter told him it was the "Pink Pistols" which is an LGBTQ gun club in our area.
Mentally ill people should not own firearms. It's time to call people what they are. Mentally ill. America needs to stop pretending these people are stable. They are not.
Yeah its a tricky situation. Its a double edge sword where if you remove a right from someone as soon as they seek help, your going to have fewer people getting the help they need.
The problem is that anyone can be labeled "crazy" by authorities in order to remove their rights. They did it in the days of Communism by labeling any "dissenters" as crazy. Heck, Jordan Peterson is dealing with this in Canada at the moment.
Is there any group that has a higher suicide rate than trans? I’m curious if those who have had diagnosed suicidal thoughts even approach those numbers.
I read many years ago that the trans suicide rate was, by far, the highest of any group. Now, throw in some justification from the left and we have what we have now. Suicidal trannies taking out as many people as possible before dying themselves. Sick.

How do you regulate that though?

I asked the same thing!
Lets not get into red flag laws. Slippery slope.
Fine. Outlaw trans surgeries and hormone treatments. Something has to be done.

I heard the trans suicide rate was around 70%. Hormones are powerful. Definitely higher than Veterans.
Veterans
While they are higher than the average population, it's nowhere near the trans rate of suicide.
How can we ensure that only qualified people buy firearms? Right now, pretty much anyone can buy a gun without too much hassle
You wouldn't be a democrat by any chance, would you? That sounds like "Gun Control" talk, to me.
The user I replied to said that mentally people should not own firearms. How would that be enforced?
I'd start by saying if you're on any psychoactive medications, you probably shouldn't own firearms.
Alcohol is considered a psychoactive drug since it is a depressant. Just saying.
Right but...how would that be enforced? Would people have to submit their medical records to gun shops?
