Attacks On Mental Illness A Little To Loose

I have a huge problem with the way both sides of the gun-control "debate" is treating mental illness.

They throw the term around as if it's a means to an end. As if there aren't varying degrees of "mental illness." They're all guilty of it - Obama on down. For such "smart" people they sure know how to "mob hit" people. Sounds as though we're about to lynch a whole class of people who really don't pose a threat. The stigma of mental illness is already deep and profound in society so lets "ban" guns from those with whatever mental disorder they possess. I wonder, will those with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder be on the list? What about autism? What about anxiety? I highly doubt this came into play. They can't draw the lines between what is normal and what's not.

We're all insane to some degree. I reckon. So, in essence, we're really ill in the way we assess ourselves; mostly the mind.

Politicians are, for the most part, narcissistic sociopath bent on controlling others. How else to describe the incessant need to intervene and interfere in all facets of our lives?

To me, they're the LAST people who should be formulating laws around "mental illness."

Does Obama and his crack team of cynical politicians qualify as mentally ill? I mean, really, have you looked at the track record of the people in charge of the nation's finances go back to the mortgage crisis? All crooks and dopes. But they're gonna lead the charge on preventing another Newtown?

Please.

They can't find the balls to cut spending on the deficit but they're gonna take on a social issue so big only God has answers to. Even then.

To me, that's arrogance to the ultimate degree.

And that's enough to make me mentally ill.
