[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 3267462, member: 1132"] More to the point, do you think it's because the tools aren't in place to do an involuntary commitment? Or is it because the system and it's operators currently don't have the time, resources and/or will to follow through and get a dangerous person involuntarily committed? In a couple of other threads I've pointed out that the DoJ prosecution rate for lying on a 4473 is so small as to be nonexistent (0.0008%). What good are more laws if they can't or won't use the ones they already have? Is it really paranoia? Or is it a legitimate concern because history has proven it to be so? I get that any one individual has a pretty small chance of being wrongfully violated by these proposals, but is it a smaller or larger chance than 0.0008%? :anyone: [/QUOTE]
