AWARE of the sad fact that there are those among the sapient beings of the universe that suffer from varying forms of mental incompetency, ALSO AWARE that in many nations, gun rights are a fundamental part of their constitutions or laws, BELIEVING, however, that those deemed to be mentally incompetent, in the interest of protecting themselves and their peers, should not be allowed to handle guns, The General Assembly hereby, I. DEFINES, for the purposes of this resolution, 1. "Gun" as "a device easily transported by one person, designed for the basic purpose of causing damage to beings and property, that uses a series of steps, ending in the usage of a manual trigger, that fires, at high speeds, small projectiles, or burst or streams of concentrated energy"; 2. "Mentally Incompetent" as those who, in the professional opinion of a medical professional trained to make such observations, are "unable to distinguish between real and imaginary events" or "unable to understand the potential consequences of their actions"; II. CLARIFIES that for a being to count as being "mentally incompetent" they need only fit one of the above definitions for "mentally incompetent"; III. DECLARES that a judge or other judicial body may order someone to be tested for being "mentally incompetent", and can recommend that somebody be classified as such, but cannot order somebody to be considered "mentally incompetent" for the purposes of this resolution; IV. BANS those who are "mentally incompetent" from purchasing, selling, handling, using, or assisting in the testing of guns; V. ALLOWS for those who are "mentally incompetent", to challenge their status and take a test that, should they pass, would lift from them the status of "mentally incompetent" for the purposes of this resolution only; VI. CHARGES the World Health Authority (WHA) with creating a list of conditions that could potentially cause someone to become "mentally incompetent", creating a test for the purposes of Article IV, and actively disseminating that information, through the Universal Library Coalition (ULC) and other information banks; VII. CLARIFIES that this does not affect the gun laws of individual nations with regards to people not deemed to be "mentally incompetent"; Passed 6,027 votes to 3,277 Edited by Zander, 16 Feb 2011, 10:00 PM.

This is what I've been saying for the longest time! Finally, someone puts it into words. |
