The ATF is aware of the situation, and we need to encourage legislators to tighten up the reporting for civil commitment proceedings and restraining orders and such, so that this might be avoided in the future.

edit: That said, I don't really think that there is ultimately anything that will prevent determined lone mad-dog killer types. Still, I think we can agree that we ought to prevent ready access to weapons by mental defectives. Sorry if that's an insensitive term - certainly not all mentally ill people are dangerous - I think you know what I mean, though.
