Then don't give them guns. It's unstable cops that make the bigest mistakes.

As far as monitored indefinitely, all licenses require a renewal, except for Indiana which is very close to passing a life time license, however, any of the aforementioned issues happening causes a revocation of the license.
gun bans and gun control only keeps guns out of the hands of those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes

You're saying that felons are less inclined or determined than others to commit crimes? Are you aware of the statistics on felons committing crimes? Yes, the Die Hard thing was an obvious joke, but the psych eval is absolutely serious. Do you want the bipolar guy fighting depression and having suicidal thoughts next door to your family with a Desert Eagle? How about the cop with serious anger issues and alcoholism protecting your family?
