Okay, but again, you’re missing the entire point of the conversation.
This is a person worried about losing their rational mind.
You’re trying to describe rationality.
That’s not how memory loss works. At. All.
You’re making this about YOU, and it has nothing to do with you. Only the person who asked the question.

Firstly, that is how memory loss works. If they’re a person who has a prexisting interest or history in a thing, in a moment of confusion they may well forget that it’s not a good idea for them to go do that thing again.
Secondly, I’m not making it about me. I’m using myself as an example.
Thirdly, there’s no “again” here. This was our first interaction about this.
Finally, the person who asked the question is clearly concerned about this aspect. You making this about YOU and YOUR assumptions on their history, personality, and general ethos does not help a person who is genuinely seeking help. Perhaps try answering their question (“how do I ensure I am on a no-purchase list for firearms?”) instead of attempting to make this more than it is and making this a “the psychology of gun owners” debate?

No, it’s not.
Someone who didn’t own or had a penchant for guns in the first place wouldn’t SUDDENLY get all crazy about guns as you’re suggesting. It’s simply not a thing.
Whatever your crazy insecurities are about this, it’s not about the OP who is simply asking about being restrained in a way. Not because they are prone to it, but because they don’t know what’s going to happen.
You’re just some insecure assholes making this about you. Fuck off.

Jesus Christ. Is there some kind of medication you’re supposed to be taking that you haven’t? Or perhaps a medication you’re not supposed to be taking that you have taken too much of?
Re read what I said. I specifically said if they had that interest. My original comment was mostly agreeing with you that if they had that interest is when the concern kicks in. Seriously. You’re so busy attempting to defend yourself that you’ve blinded yourself to the fact that no one was attacking you. Fucking chill.

Friend…you need to chill. Gonna leave it there because you seem to have issues regulating.
