Well yes, this particular case could have easily been prevented had there been a proper computerized nationwide background check system put in place.We have "specialists" of the United States on French channels who say it is very easy for a Texan to get a weapon but it is more difficult for an automatic weapon.The lunatic killed over 20 totally innocent people worshiping in a church, many of them little kids, before the hero jumped into action. We have to ask, are we okay with this happening over and over. Even if we aren't, there isn't much we can do about it anyhow. The only way to solve this issue truly is to collect all guns from people, and that won't happen. So we just have pass more laws, but it will never address this issue properly.
he just had to lie by filling out the request, he was in the army too so he could have gotten the weapons before being fired from the army too?
But then again, you are allowing over 300 million people to buy as many guns and ammo as they want. Even if you ban those diagnosed with mental illnesses which in itself is a very slippery slope (who gets to make this diagnosis, can it be abused, etc.), you still have about 300 million guns per year (!) that get sold in this country to about 300 million Americans. We are going to keep seeing these massacres, get used to it.
This is what they say to the French media and they add that Trump had said: the French would have been happy to be armed at the bataclan, he is not wrong either.Well yes, this particular case could have easily been prevented had there been a proper computerized nationwide background check system put in place.We have "specialists" of the United States on French channels who say it is very easy for a Texan to get a weapon but it is more difficult for an automatic weapon.The lunatic killed over 20 totally innocent people worshiping in a church, many of them little kids, before the hero jumped into action.

It was an Commissioner who shot at one of the terrorists on his way home from work.
But after all this mass shooting maybe the NRA will open the door a little to the negotiations?
