Have President Obama explained by members of the National Institute of Mental Health about mental health and violence.

Created by C.W. on May 02, 2013

According to mental health professionals the stigma of violence towards others is usually a exaggeration. With President Obama's want to associate gun violence with mental health is far from reality statistically. In fact Mr. Obama wants to ban AR-15's and having background checks for mental health. The problem is most gun violence is from young men in urban areas that are members of prison gangs who get their firearms from straw purchases. This current wave of misunderstanding could lead to more victims of psychological abuse to be discriminated against. In fact at any given moment anybody could be mentally ill from tragedy but later on become better. I believe President Obama needs a lecture from professionals live on C-SPAN explaining this to him.
