Mental Health Laws Are Trouble for Democrats | NewsBusters

Mental Health Laws Are Trouble for Democrats | NewsBusters: "And to avoid "stigmatizing" the mentally ill, society has to live with the occasional mass murder.

Rather than constantly playing defense on gun rights, why don't Republicans force Democrats into taking uncomfortable positions for once? Make them choose between ticking off the ACLU or ticking off soccer moms -- as well as all of sane America. (Don't kid yourself: The non-insane are still a potent voting bloc in this country.)
