The devil is in the details. Assuming there existed a law stating,
simply, "Unstable individuals cannot buy a gun." How do you define
"unstable?" Is it a subjective decision by the police chief? Is it
someone who walks about with a sign reading 'Thy Doom Is Near?" And
so on.

For a start, those who proclaim that strangers hate and threaten them.

But it is sometimes that true that just because you are paranoid doesn't
mean someone is out to get them.
