Re: Guns and the mentally ill ADA

Ok, here is my weird thought for the day----

When I was admitted to Evanston Hospital in the state of Illinois, I was told by the admitting personnel that they hoped that I "never wanted to buy a gun, because you won't be able to now." Well now every once in awhile I get to thinking about that and wonder what if I decided to buy a gun. Isn't limiting my ability to purchase one infringing on several rights I have? After all I am not a convicted criminal. And what about Doctor-patient confidentiality--do the gun dealers know why I can't buy one? Or what about my rights to bear arms or better yet, my rights for equal access under the ADA? I've often wondered if I tried to buy a gun would the ACLU or NRA take up my fight after having been turned down.

Yes---my it drives my pdoc and therapist crazy when I bring the thought of suing for my right to bear arms. Hmmmm....maybe we could get a class action lawsuit. :)
