If you are over the age of 18 and not mentally adjudicated you should be allowed to purchase guns. If you're under 18 and "gifted" a gun then just like the child, it's the parents prerogative to make sure it's safe. If we trust you to be out of prison then you should be allowed all of your rights back as a citizen (none of this you got a felony you're never allowed to vote garbage). Outside of that I want very few other restrictions.

What if OP thinks differently? What if they think you shouldn't have a gun if you're mentally ill but also believe that 12-year-olds should be allowed to purchase guns?

Does that mean they are not pro-gun or does that mean "pro-gun" is too broad a term?
