    If the person is charged and convicted it is effectively the same result in the US, as it constitutes a felony and convicted felons are barred from firearms purchase and possession.

      Wouldn’t that be being reactive rather than proactive?

          If only there was a way to administer some kind of test to prove that they aren’t that dumb before allowing them to purchase a gun.

          Too bad there isn’t. Oh well, what can you do!
