Not weirded out. I consider and sometimes discuss issues from strongly contradicting perspectives a lot to work out their details and morality. It's to play devil's advocate with my own passions as a test of the rationality and conviction upon which I chose them. I let myself hold both sides in my head so that they can fight the paradox out on the same ground.
@topic: Who would see the results of the mandatory tests, and how might the results have an impact on the lives and opportunities available to individuals under this regime?
you know if you been in a psych ward at least in IL and CA (don't know about other states) you can't legally own a fire arm for at least 5 years?I think they should probably screen for the most severe and detrimental mental illnesses when buying firearms (like a license).
How I imagine priority (or anti-priority) list would go for obtaining firearms. (From immediate rejection to least rejection)
1. Schizophrenics, especially Paranoid Schizophrenics
2. Sadistic PD
3. Severe AsPD
4. Schizotypal PD
5. Moderate AsPD
6. BPD
7. NPD
8. Non-Cluster and non-schizophrenic Disorders
9. Mentally stable
Psychiatry has a lot of value, so should there be compulsory mental health screenings for every person?
I believe both.
Psychiatry is a waste of time, yet it's necessary to promote wellbeing.
I could argue that I was a gopher in my past life, doesn't make it true though.If they tried that on me it would break the machine. I could argue that I have at least 10 mental illnesses from Narcissistic Personality Disorder to Morgellons Disease. Hypercondriac could probably fit nice and snugly on the list too.

In my arguments I could provide supporting evidence; it could be patting on myself as evidence for the former or constantly scratching myself under the armpits for the latter. They ask me if the symptoms match and then I put remembered incidents through a broth of confirmation bias and forer effect and exclaim that it is me.

I think these could easily be used unethically or to otherwise either support existing oppresive systems or create new ones, whether intentional or not.
(4) What will the compulsory treatment options be for people with: (a) issue "A", (b) issue "B", (c) both issues "A" and "B"?
(5) What is the desired outcome for anyone with a confirmed issue(s) after receiving a compulsory treatment option(s)?
(6) What are the criteria for defining recovery in (5) above?
(7) Is recovery partial or total in remediation? If partial, who decides what level of remission has been achieved?
(8) What are the opportunities for those with partial remission achievements of varying percentages of recovery?
(9) How often must recovery be re-evaluated?
(10) What if there is a relapse or new ailment of any kind for those who have been diagnosed with something, and/or undergone an approved treatment?
(12) How will the criteria for all aspects of this program be re-calibrated over time as political ideologies sway the masses?
