Firearms are only for responsible owners and users.
To the extent that divesting troubled people of their firearms, even if temporary in the event that someone brings up the topic of suicide let alone permanently in the event of someone committing a crime, such is fitting and proper.
If you think that America is safe from concentration camps just because so many Americans own firearms -- Nazi Germany was awash in privately-held firearms. Seemingly every Nazi Party member had them. The Soviet Union had relatively-liberal laws on firearms so long as one was on good terms with the Communist Party.
Firearms do not prevent the Gulag or the KZ-Lager.
The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced Nazi or the dedicated Communist but instead the people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction, true and false, no longer exists -- Hannah Arendt.
