Point out any man, woman or child and I can likely find someone who would call them mentally ill.
Without exception.
I said it when all this mess started and it looks like it will happen .... background checks. It is one of those things that sounds good to a lot of folks who never really sit down and evaluate what it means or what it entails. Perception and opinion would likely swing the other way if folks really understood what it all meant.

Yep. The devil's in the details...and the definitions.
My brother in AZ couldn't buy a ML to go elk hunting several years ago because he had been diagnosed as clinically depressed and prescribed anti-depressants after suffering medical problems that ended his career. He had been fully recovered from the depression and off the meds for years, but it was still on his record and was a question on the background check.
So additional people will be prevented from legally acquiring the means of defending themselves from attack by home invaders and carjackers because of a long almost forgotten domestic disturbance conviction or a felony possession of a bag of pot in college.
They will be additional defenseless victims of the predatory criminal elements, or they will obtain the needed means of self-defense the way that 80% of those criminals already obtain theirs, illegally.
The creation of a bunch more felons, and the bolstering of the black market in arms doesn't sound like an improvement to me. Apparently it does to Democrats.

I've posted twice on Donnelly's Facebook page today, and both of them have been deleted as well as others.

The voters of Indiana should have voted for the Republican! Now you all will have to put-up with your Democrat Senator, who looks like he is stabbing Indiana Gunowners in the back.

Our Republican opened his mouth and doomed any chances he had of winning.

Nah; it's a frontal wound - anyone who is surprised by this really wasn't paying attention.

I hope your right but memories of Lugar being elected over and over after voting for the first AWB and our other illustrious sitting Indiana Senator being elected after also voting for the first AWB has me wondering about the sanity of some Hoosier voters ;D

Why do I have to prove myself for my guaranteed rights. Obama never proved anything and he gets elected.
