My father began early signs of dementia at the age of 79 and eventually died of full-blown Alzheimers when he was 86. He had a shotgun in his bedroom for years. His wife took it out a couple of years into the dementia. There are various reasons probably for having to have someone manage your affairs. It implies there is some level of impairment. Does it mean they are dangerous? Probably not. Besides, the elderly are not the one's shooting up the schools. It's akin to an old white lady being searched by the airport security while letting the guy with the turbin and big beard walk through because we design our checks not on profiling but instead base it upon some politically correct random process.
