I don't mean to insult you, but I seriously have no idea how you could even ask this.

People say it's a mental health problem and move on without addressing it. The woman who feel she is entitled to dress provocatively or the man who feels his need to carry a gun entitles him to carry a firearm. Both are attention seekers who are saying "hey, look at me." This want may or may not attract the attention of their target audiences but the person in the bushes playing with himself or a weapon does not have the self control needed to react normally.

Once upon a time I worked at a VA Hospital in California. One of my officers dragged in a "veteran" who had decided that bringing his AR-15 to group was a good idea. I guess they were having show and tell. The "patient" had a prior history of violence and the weapon was a violation of the Assault Weapons Ban. SLAM DUNK EH,
Neither the FBI or the ATF had time to deal with it. I could see the writing on the wall and quickly turned his weapon over to SFPD for disposal. Sure a poo, they came in with this nutjob wanting me to return it to him. I explained that it was gone, disposed of. I imagine Psychiatry reimbursed him. A law is only a law if it is enforced. Otherwise it is just one more pile to step over.
