My issue for point number 2 is, do they really not care if the individual is mentally ill or unstable after they turn 21? Once a mentally ill individual turns 21, they can just get a gun at that point? Just get rid of the hard age limit and encompass it for all mentally ill individuals, and throw in a mental health comprehensive reform package along with it. America has many mentally ill individuals after they were given the shaft in the 80's under Reagan.

  • For everything else, I don't see much of a problem with it, but then again, I don't live in Florida. I just have friends who live there. If the lawmakers in Florida see this whole issue as a mental health issue more than a firearms issue, they should introduce a bill that heavily assists mentally ill people by giving them access to some sort of affordable treatment, or access to affordable help. He should also implement mandatory annual training and classes as more information related mental health is discovered from research. It would keep LEO's in the know of mental health issues.
