It does not hurt to write laws that supposedly prohibit bad guys (felons, the insane, etc...) from owning or carrying arms.  That fine if you think prohibition will work, but irrational if you do not.  Police can spend their time and effort trying to make prohibition work.  Just make sure due process and rule of law aren't thrown away in a vain hope for backwards safety.

Apply this to the case of Travis Reinking, who got treated with full respect, then his father gave him back his guns.  He was disarmed by an unarmed patron of the Waffle House, not by a friendly shooter.  

The system is broken and the idea of an armed citizenry to protect us all is simply not viable ... or wise, in my opinion.

I'm an armed citizen who lives to far away from you to be any help to you during a crisis.

See my previous post.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
