Rebuttal from Rashid-  this is making mental health seem like the key factor to violence and uses statistics that a lot of violent crimes are caused by sane people
Rashid- believes in tighter background checks for purchasing and using guns
Rebuttal from Stuart- people who intend to cause gun crimes wouldn't intend on getting a background check and will get the gun through illegal means instead and it will complicate the process for law-abiding gun owners
