Lawmakers in Illinois recently passed a concealed carry law, effective January 2014, that would require mental health practitioners to report patients they believe pose a "clear and present danger to themselves and others.
Even so, the background checks will still do little to keep a senseless act of mass violence from happening in Illinois, according to some experts.
I think that all of those desirous of preserving the freedoms written into the U.S. Constitution by its founding father's, should be extremely vigilant in monitoring this debate, because this flashpoint issue is just the latest assault on our liberties.
A few short months ago, a Chicago alderwoman stopped just short of accusing the Chicago police force of having something to do with the high murder rate in Chicago. Now while I do not subscribe to that line of reasoning, I do believe that events as distant as the French Revolution, and the murder of Czar Nicholas and his family (the Romanovs), and as recent as the September destruction of the twin towers in New York, have been cleverly conceived catastrophe orchestrated by a cabal of powerful men, to get we, the American people to willingly surrender our rights to freedom and privacy.
Ask yourselves this question: "Why have so many mentally ill folks been able to acquire firearms in the first place; and how do they get them into places you would think they couldn't?"
