Several years ago I was saying that "pretty soon, we'll have to get a note from our doctor before we can buy a gun." I was only half joking. With continual focus on the hindsight-obvious mental illnesses of these "mass shooters" I just see it as a logical next step for the lawmakers. I still maintain that it is possible that, in addition to the usual NICS background check, we just might have to get a doctor, shrink or psychologist to sign off that we are not kooks.

Yeah, about that, you might want to carefully consider this due to certain leanings of professional doctoral organization(s). I believe that they definitely would want this 'responsibility'.

I live in S.C. Right now our gun laws make a lot sense to me. That said, I can see something like the Maryland thing coming to Greenville or Charleston in a few years. We have had LOTS of liberals move here. I don't quite understand their logic. We have low taxes which they seem to like but as soon as they get here they start pushing to make this place like where they came from.
I agree. That has happened here in Virginia and it is spreading deeper and deeper into the south. When people move, either because of their job or retirement, they tend to take their economic and social views with them.
GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.I predict a BIG increase in lost firearms. Be careful while out boating.
If you think that is a solution. You are deluded.
This fight is World wide. WAKE UP!

If an ERPO law comes to South Carolina, it won't be for just a couple of cities like Charleston or Greenville...it'll be statewide.

More Red Flag..
That is my son's exact complaint about Charlotte and the counties right over the state line in SC.
Five years of living in AL spoiled him.

People have their heads in the sand if they think things like this aren't coming to them. Demographics are changing everywhere, not for the good.

Absolutely correct, and all the molon labe and boating accident stuff is not the answer and frankly suggests a misunderstanding of the capabilities of modern law enforcement and the persuasive effect of a threatened prison term.
We are entering a new round of anti-gun sentiment and likely legislation, primarily at the state level, I suspect. We need to support the NRA (and yeah, none of us agrees with everything they do) and pay attention to what and who we vote for.
If you live in a solidly pro-gun state, I envy you, but please don't get too complacent. It wasn't that long ago I felt somewhat "safe." Now I live in Colocalichussets.
EDIT: I realize some of the boating accident stuff is said in jest and I mean no insult to anyone by my comments. We are on the same side of this issue. I just don't believe it advances our cause to claim or think that would be the answer and I fear it furthers the stereotyped image of an "assault weapon" owner that the other side like to perpetuate. These comments are all public.
