re: #3 Destro

I have no idea, and that stuff is likely confidential at least for now.

To me the way to handle these people (meaning those whose trained/credentialed mental health pro says is a threat to himself or others) is to get them help. The kind of help that at least takes the most dangerous symptoms away.A credible mental health system or lack thereof makes a real difference in these cases. Some people will have to give up the close possession of guns. Not necessarily by law, but by obligation and responsibility. Suicidal kid in the house? Get the guns out of reach. Severely depressed spouse? Ditto.

Anyway with enough supervision this tragedy could have been prevented. Leave no stone unturned is how I like to say it. Gun regulations and much more outreach to the mentally ill, starting with those thought to be dangerous.
