If he's not a mole, his previous posts about his mental health make him a huge red-flag candidate.

I'm turning into a raging asshole today
My mental state has officially been pushed into I do not give a **** territory. I'm angry as hell today. I'm confronting people who are just so ******* stupid and ignorant. I'm just over being quiet and silent about shit. I'm a raging angry bitch. I'm also sad and deep down ready to cry and just scream and rampage and break whatever I can see. Items, friendships, relationships with family. I'm ready to just severe it all. I'm just done with peoples bullshit. I'm over the fake assholes and users.
I collectively told them all to suck a dick and die today. I woke up on the wrong side of the bed. And the day isn't close to being over. I'm over people and their dumbassry.
I'm ready to cry and slice up my own arm just to get my angry under control.

Battle with depression
So...lately DU has been a place to escape to feel more with people with the same ideologies. So far it's been helping, but last night I had a huge fight with a close friend over a decision she made without consulting me. Needless to say, I broke down and started to tear myself down like I normally do. Not sure why I do this, maybe since my ex best friend destroyed me as a person and the feeling of self worth just went.
I've been battling depression for over a decade now, I have one suicide attempt on my belt. For the longest time I was actually okay? Sort of. I was in a mentally abusive relationship for nearly 7 years and that was difficult, but I settled obviously for what I could have and feel something. Sadly the past 4 years have completely beat the hell out of me mentally. Friends have backed stabbed me, I'm terrified of the people I do love hurting me or leaving. Guess what I am saying, my depression has hit near suicide levels again and I don't have the means of getting help since I'm uninsured.
I'm reaching out for help. Please. Holding this in isn't becoming too hard to control now.

He is the poster child for red-flag laws. But, will any of the DUmmies recognize that and try to get him disarmed, by force if necessary, by the police? Somehow, I doubt that's going to happen. Much like the inner-city residents who refuse to cooperate with the police, they will rant and rave about gun violence, but they wont become part of the solution.
