I think that was a mess up since someone failed to do an appropriate check. That guy had already been declared a mental case, but that data never turned up when he went to buy his guns. I forgot the exact details.

SA sounds similar to the US in that regard. If a shrink says you're a nut case, then no guns for you. That was a big protest lately and a new law has been passed since it used to be you lost your rights to guns forever. Now there is a recourse that one could go through to prove they are better to get the right restored.
