[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 1081360, member: 22662"] Ah. But that's when the fun begins. At the behest of the NRA, we will be looking into mental health. We'll find something to point to as the "true problem" in the individual and a database of "risk factors" will grow. It will begin with the obvious, the violent, the drug a users, the criminals...but then it changes. Mental health. CT scans will begin to show "possible links". Psyche exams will point to "leading indicators". Slowly the net gathers around the Second Amendment rights of a larger and larger pool of citizens. Just wait until "precrime forensics profiles" become the topic. There will be no right to privacy against "unusual search and seizure". What tells more about what a person values? How she spends her money. Mental health. The NRA has thrown open the door to "The Minority Report" and with ever advancing technology, it is hard to say that that science fiction tour de force couldn't prove prophetic. [/QUOTE]
