That was willx who said that, not me, and he wasn't saying it in a healthcare vs. guns sense. He was talking about the limits of a society's ability to help people. I think we do have some obligation, but I agree with him that there are limits, and I'd add my personal caveat that we need to remember human beings are not homogenous and certain 'mental illnesses' as we seem them from a modern perspective are really just different traits from different people (see above post).
