The millions and millions of man hours used to screen perfectly sane people could be spent on those who actually need treatment. What can be better addressed is getting people in need into the system. That includes training to police officers to notice the warning signs such as the type of outbursts Loughner had. Their job would be to press charges instead of letting him go. Once he is in the legal system, his defense attorney can recommend a psychiatric evaluation, of which all they have to do is pronounce him a danger to himself or others (a lower standard than involuntary commitment). He would now be a prohibited person even if all criminal charges get dropped- though a felony conviction for the death threats would better serve public safety. Without that he is still free to stab Giffords, make a bomb, or buy a gun from his pot dealer (remember he had connections to the black market underworld).TSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6314891743204395487.post-3465044589889930702011-01-14T07:43:47.438+01:002011-01-14T07:43:47.438+01:00I think one gun a month is insane.

No semi-automatic weapons or anything that holds more than six bullets.<br /><br />Oh yeah, and tax the shit out of bullets.
