I'm afraid that the problem is not that simple, it is a coumpound systemic failure.
Clearly phase one is preventing those with serious mental defects (such as Cruz) from obtaining firearms!
We desperately need to clearly re-define the point at which mental defects are grounds to deny the right to posses firearms.
First we have a mental health system that is a near total failure, mentally disturbed individuals are not hospialized and treated,
instead, they are routienly treated on an outpatient basis, they get a pill to mask their symtoms, and are then sent home.
It is an undeniable fact that young men are the one segment of society most prone to committing acts of crime and violence,
how do we treat them?
Our broken mental health system gives them drugs that are shown to increase violent actions by more than 40% among 15 to 24 year olds.
From 70% to 80% of all mental illness in this country is being diagnosed and treated by family physicians, not qualified mental
health care professionals! FDA recommendations that these patients be closely monitered are routinely ignored!
Because most seriously mentally disturbed individuals are no longer hospitalized, but are instead treated on an out patient basis,
their mental illness is not reported to law enforcement, thus they are not currently barred from purchasing and possessing firearms.
Check out the facts below:
https://www.drugwatch.com/ssri/suicide/Patients who take SSRIs may experience side effects such as violent behavior, mania or aggression.
The FDA suggests patients of all ages who start taking antidepressants should be carefully monitored
for clinical worsening, suicidality or unusual changes in behavior.
And more @
http://www.iamawake.co/study-antidepressants-linked-to-violent-behavior-in-youth/.
Most of the age groups did not show an increase in crime and violence, however,
the 15 to 24-year-old group showed a 43 percent increase in their risk of committing violent crime while on SSRIs
Any suggestions on how to fix THAT?

When BHO was in charge, he instituted many of the current leaders and changed the title of their position so they could not be easily removed or replaced. I don''t know too many details regarding this(as the swamp is succeeding at hiding these) but when they finally learn of what happened and why this 19 year-old escaped correct condemnation for so long as a mentally unfit individual, I bet they will be able to pinpoint it to this. Whoever this turns out to be MUST be replaced....
