Mental health should be the focus. Really, if there weren't so many crazy mofos here people might not be as interested in having a gun. I wish that I didn't have to worry about robbers, murderers, bad people in general. If they were gone for good then a hunting rifle might be enough for me.
Bottom line, get rid of crazy fuckers that want to inflict harm to others and there is no more problem.
I agree, we need more mental health identification and treatment. One of the problems with identifying people with serious mental health disorders is that they have learned to fly under the radar and function undetected in society. Often, they are only identified after the offense has been committed. Even if identified prior to the offense they fall through the cracks in treatment or refuse treatment all together. You can't force mental health treatment on an individual without some damn compelling evidence.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
