Moderately extreme...
He certainly trumps most when it comes to mental health issues, methinks.

He certainly trumps most when it comes to mental health issues, methinks.
Let's not forget teh Abuser in Chief repealed legislation that stopped 75,000 people with dangerous mental illnesses from being able to buy guns.
In a statement by spokesman Chris Cox, the National Rifle Association applauded Trump’s decision.
“Today marks a new era for law-abiding gun owners, as we now have a president who respects and supports our right to keep and bear arms,” Cox said. “We are pleased that this example of government overreach will no longer be pursued.”
As the right to keep and bear arms is enshrined in the constitution, does it matter what the president thinks? A change in mindset and the constitution is clearly the only way forward. They were able to repeal Prohibition, which no doubt seemed a good idea at the time, so why not this provision? Householders having muskets might have been vital to the success of the War of Independence, but I'd suggest that enough years have passed since 1776 that the United States can afford to relax.
Why do you say what you say about that which is a waste of time?Why do you waste time with it and why do I saying you are wasting time with it?
They do, you know. I know a few Americans with guns, they don't have an interest in shooting them, they don't use them, but they want to own them like I want to own a collection of woodworking tools. I'm not doing anything clever with my hand saw but it's useful if I have a bit of hedge getting a bit assertive.I don't actually think many Americans want guns in their houses.
I would say not. Gun control legislation and background checks do reduce the frequency and severity of mass slaughters.We are, in such matters, at the mercy of a higher power.
**** your thoughts and prayers.
**** your messages of support and solidarity.
That shit is dirt cheap.
perhaps holding the supplier jointly liable for the consequences would concentrate minds.

If it is a mental health issue, rather than a gun issue, why did Trump overturn the background check regulation that the Obama administration put in place after the Sandy Hook mass shooting, legislation that aimed at making it harder for people with mental illness to buy guns?

And, big surprise, that decision was welcomed by the NRA at the time.
