Любые рассуждения трамповаты на тему оружия надо сразу выбрасывать на помойку.

Even though Katz had, according to a summary of online court records reviewed by USA TODAY, been sent for a short spell as a teen to Maryland’s Sheppard Pratt Health System and spent a few months at Utah’s RedCliff Ascent Wilderness Treatment Program, none of that would have disqualified him from gun ownership.

Federal law prohibits people who have been involuntarily committed to mental institutions from buying guns. Under current Maryland law, people can be blocked from buying firearms if they have been involuntarily committed to such a facility or were voluntarily admitted for more than 30 consecutive days.

Neither of Katz’s stays at the facilities reached the 30-day threshold, the court records from Elizabeth and Richard Katz’s divorce show. While the filings describe David Katz as being “committed to a mental institution,” they do not state whether his commitment was deemed involuntary at the time.
