re: #201 Dark_Falcon

That just isn’t true. The disclosure rules psychiatrists must abide by owe more to the ACLU than the NRA. They are not about guns, but were written to protect individual privacy against government intrusion. So the complaint that they do not allow authorities to be proactive must be met the the classic phrase: “That’s not a bug, it’s a feature.”

Many people are more afraid of abusive government than active shooters, and honestly, I count myself as one of them. An active shooter kills but a relative few, whereas an abusive government oppresses everyone.

Hence the point of the article I linked to up above, namely that law enforcement can’t simply stop lone wolves without further sacrifice of our civil liberties and privacy. But we’ve become frozen with paralysis due to the fear that any future attempts at gun control will lead to a repeat of ‘94, leaving us without any unified effort to prevent future shootings like Aurora. So the only conclusion is that yes, we’re gonna have to get used to the idea of mass shootings because there’s no way we’re going to prevent them in the current environment.
