I'm not sure it's the same bill, but the one they were throwing a fit about several months ago basically said that if you had _ever_ been diagnosed with PTSD (which the vast majority are veterans), you would automatically banned for life from owning a firearm.
There was an appeals process, totally at your own cost, and made going to the VA without an appointment look like a spring picnic.
These are not people who have been adjucated as dangerous, as the VA-tech shooter was, just people who are having a few problems adjusting to experiences they recieved.
The VA-tech shooter fells through the cracks in the system, because noone wanted to take responsibility for violating his "rights". It's the system that needs fixing, not making additional laws that are not needed, just enforce the ones we already have that are not being enforced.
