I am a liberal so like not all liberals have a problem with the idea of enforced mental health care for people who are a known danger.
And for the record since the subject came up, I certainly don't mean mad doctor mutilation crap, I mean actual care. From caring professionals.
Like I got unwillingly put in a mental hospital for psychosis but I wasn't even a danger to others. And that's great, I needed it. I'm also not allowed to own a gun for five years from the last time I was in the hospital. Also fine. And yet people who beat their children, people who stalk and rape, people who are known to the police as dangerous don't get mental health care AND get to keep their guns. Madness.
"Known to be dangerous to the police" is pretty vague, but all of those other things make you a prohibited person when it comes to firearms. ---
