HMM: People on Antipsychotics Should Have Their Gun Rights Paused. “The Violence Project’s analysis found that 24% of mass shooters had previously taken psychiatric medication. Again, to be clear: The vast majority of people prescribed antipsychotic drugs do not commit violent crimes. But it is still reasonable to create a temporary, reviewable pause of gun rights tied to active treatment with specified antipsychotics. To protect liberty and avoid stigma, the pause should be (1) time-limited, (2) rebuttable through a rapid petition or possibly through a physician’s attestation that the individual is not dangerous, and (3) privacy-respecting, relying on minimal, purpose-built reporting (or voluntary certificates) rather than broad disclosures of medical records.”
