Besides the obviously qualified psychologist or psychiatrist (that part I agree with), who else should get carte blanche (guaranteed immunity from civil liability) to send off names and addresses to the Ministry of Love Attorney General for firearm confiscation?

If only!

I got this letter from town.  So, now every Joe can understand  the "feelings", and "encourage" others to seek professional help, so those professional can order your rights taken away. 

 

They started to work it from both ends, push free program encourage people to "diagnose" others and at the same time pass bills imposing severe penalties who may dare to seek help.

Probably not, but you will be used as justification to intervene. I see these programs a way to brainwash general population (your mom, uncle, cousin, that "friend") into referring other people to "professionals", all in the name of saving loved ones. 

 

At first, I wanted to sign up, but realized nothing good comes out of this type of training.

It says the course is intended for LE, Firefighters and first responders, so I do believe this goes hand-in-hand with A2938.

its open to all residents, atleast in my town.  Left hand raises chin up and right hand slaps.

Apologies, you're right. I started reading down the list and quit before I got to the "General Public" part. It makes me wish this was for CPR or First Aid course since I think those courses would be far more useful.
