Mental illness isn't just a binary / 0-1 situation. So, before you get to putting names on a list, you've also got to consider the degrees of illness and whether their illness has been cured. Maybe just start with NGRI's & other involuntarily institutionalised people and go from there?

If you read my post carefully it only uses people who have used mental illness as an excuse to try and get out of a crime or have been found guilty of a felony charge that includes violence that can be non-gun related.
