Agree with you convicted felons, diagnosis of mental incapacity, and assault weapons would be grounds for automatic disqualification. Weapons violations should be uniform, harsh and predictable. From where you sit (trauma surgeon dealing w/ GSWs, urban experiences) I do understand your POV. However, guns are part of my heritage, so I am more liberal about this issue. Sadly, there will be incidents, but not if gun laws are extremely strict. We will never stop the crazies who go on a rampage. But I sure feel more secure when alone with my weapon. Take this responsibility very seriously, with regular practice, etc. Personal firearms: yes, but highly regulated – at least as much as automobiles are (license, registration, etc)—a privelege, not a right.

I wonder what they will be fighting for next to keep their enrollment up. Their main cause was just settled.
