And if I never see a doctor, do I have a “medical history”?

I can see we’ve reached your limit.

Involuntary commitment is not a small matter, there is due process.

And yet, they’d still pass a bgc.

Who would?

An illegal immigrant meme?

Who do you think?

“However, federal law cannot require states to make information identifying these people available to the federal or state agencies that perform background checks,2 and many states fail to voluntarily report the necessary records to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), especially with respect to people prohibited from possessing guns for mental health reasons. As a result, some individuals known to pose a serious risk to themselves and others can pass background checks and obtain firearms.” From Mental Health Reporting | Giffords

A fear causing the giving up freedom meme.

You need to source your quotes.

Since 2016 All 50 states report adjudicated mental health to NICS, New Hampshire was the last.

Do they? Post the law to prove it.

Thank you.

Yes they do, voluntarily. Some states may have their own “laws” requiring to internally. I’m not looking that up.

Voluntarily, so they aren’t compelled to and you don’t actually know whether they do or not for every single individual that might be problematic since it’s voluntary. Thanks for clearing that up.

I would think a State law requiring reporting to the Federal government would be rather easy to find, if there was such a law.

Why do you feel everything has to have a central government law? Why do you feel compelling (force) is the best way to do anything?

Then find it.

As a matter of fact, why do you feel this is a central government issue at all?

Because some people won’t comply without being compelled to. Look at the mask mandate. In States where it was the law, people still didn’t comply, but you think a purely voluntarily system of reporting won’t have gaps because everyone will report? That’s some logic.

And if you don’t start quoting my posts as I am doing you the courtesy of doing, this conversation is over.

:rofl: Quite the authoritarian. Have a nice day.
