Dear Dingo:
What do you think of recent poll data, that suggests many Americans feel "mental health " is the problem behind mass shootings, not the weapons?
Answer:
I think most Americans, including our "Stable Genius leader", know diddly squat about mental illness. They just want an easy solution, and stigmatizing mental health seems as good as any !!
There is no diagnosis called "potential mass shooter".
What mental illness diagnosis did the Las Vegas shooter have ? None.
(OK, maybe 'problem gambler'-- in which case, any patron of a Trump casino property should be watched very, very carefully by the FBI.... ha!)
Or how about Adam Lanza (Sandy Hook)-- would you diagnose him with: "Lives in moms basement"??? Or would you say "autism spectrum?"( In that case, better wall off Silicone Valley....!)
In my opinion, the Americans with the real "mental illness" are those experiencing delusional thinking--by believing assault weapons should be legally available big boy toys....
