Bruce, you are doing this more and more often. Are you alright?
I never said, "NRA says the mentally ill should not be denied." Let's look exactly at what I posted:

He also [for]got to mention that many gun advocates oppose 'mental stablity' rules are contrary to the their interpretation of the Second Amendment.

Bruce - again you have jumped to conclusions rather than read what was posted.

Exactly. Many have completely contradictory opinion - none based in political agendas. Whereas the NRA leadership now advocates action to restrict guns from the mentally ill, the Medical industry opposes complete access to everyone's medical records. That (now) NRA advocated gun restriction calls for all such medical records to be accessed by government - a violation of privacy rights.
Meanwhile, what gets lost? Court records (public records) are not even being used to restrict weapons, in part, because of those who opposed 'any and all' gun restrictions. Eventually gun ownership will require one to display responsibility. In so much political spinning, that demand for responsiblity is completely lost in mud and distortions.
And so a hunter in Allentown PA fires a high power rifle. The bullet strikes a pregnant woman in the head in her driveway one half mile away. The hunter would not even apologize for his irresponsible actions. Therein lies the problem. Responsibility is now secondary and irrelevant to rights.
Meanwhile, Bruce should read before making such accusations. Lately he has been doing this more often.
