        A teenager who spent time in mental hospitals or even under medical care, should be in a database so they cannot purchase guns. However, there are laws to protect him from being put in a database. Conflict

        Remind me. Wasn't it Trump who struck down a law meant to restrict gun sales to mental health patients? Good move. What most murders have in common is upset men with guns. Toxic anger and entitlement and a guaranteed weapon of easy slaughter.

        They want to ban the guns but not the mentally ill, does that make sense?
