I said we have a mental health problem, NOT a gun problem. I also said I’d like to see it so if someone’s seen a psychiatrist or has been on any psychotropic drugs such as anti-depressants in the last five years that they be evaluated before being to purchase a firearm. > > Mental health affects far more people in this country than firearms ever will, unfortunately. I think we have to realize that Humans, as a species are no longer part of Evolution or Survival of the Fittest. With the Advent of medicines, it isn’t just the “Strong” that survive anymore. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing! I’m just saying that we have to account for the fact that with each generation, the human species as a whole gets just a little bit weaker. And that certainly includes those with mental issues. Even more of a reason to have stricter controls over firearms. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/27-dead-in-school-shooting/265750)._
