KirkPatrick,
Thank you for posting that.... it a very brave thing to do. Clearly there will be much debate about where these lines are drawn.
I'm not saying that this should be the litmus test, but to my mind, if an individual REQUIRES intervention to keep them from harming themselves or others, that individual owning a firearm is probably not in anybody's best interest. By intervention, I mean medications or other controls that if not administered at the correct time, in the correct manner and in the correct quantity could/would result in a loss of cognitive control.
Please take the above as something to discuss.... nothing more.
