Some anti-gun lobbies say that desiring to own a gun is a mental illness.
Is being a conservative a mental illness in the eyes of a liberal?
How about a child showing off a PICTURE of his new airsoft BB gun to his friends?
Read how an actor's son is having his mental health questioned after he brought a picture to school to show off his new Airsoft BB gun.

Most of the proposals on "gun control" by the White House addressed mental illness:
• Remove barriers that prevent states from reporting information on people prohibited from gun ownership for mental health reasons.
• Provide $10 million to CDC for additional research on relationship between video games, media images and violence.
• Provide $55 million for new initiative (Project AWARE) to make sure students get treatment for mental health issues.
• Provide $25 million for state-based strategies supporting individuals ages 16-25 with mental health or substance abuse issues.
• Provide $25 million to offer students mental health services for trauma or anxiety.
• Provide $50 million to train 5,000 additional mental health professionals serving children and young adults.
• Clarify that the health-care law does not prohibit doctors from asking their patients about guns in their homes.
• Launch a national dialogue about mental illness.
• Finalize requirements for private health insurance plans to cover mental health services.
• Ensure that Medicaid recipients get quality mental health coverage.
