That would do nothing to address the problem of mentally ill people purchasing firearms. But I assume you knew that. And what do you mean anyway? Not all mentally ill people should be committed, but almost all should not be able to purchase a firearm.
I believe the government shouldn't deny someone's constitutional rights without due process of law. But I suspect you knew that.

In any case, if someone is too crazy to be allowed to purchase a firearm, they're far too crazy to be allowed to vote.
