   Why limit it to gun violence?  Take it to the next level.   
   A simple 2 hour mental examination by a trained psychiatrist   
   would wean out most of the people who are more likely to   
   commit crimes.  Anybody who refuses to be examined should   
   automatically have his freedom confiscated.  After all,   
   why would anyone other than someone with serious mental   
   illness balk at this?

   Are you saying your state law requires people to submit   
   to a psychiatric examination to get a driver's license?
