Now, here's the thing.
All these folks were batshit crazy. They were still able to get guns.

No shit, Sherlock. And if you ever come up with a usefull idea on how to keep that from happening we would love to hear it but all this pissing and moaning because the world is the way it is accomplishs nothing and becomes irritating very quickly.
There are simple ways.
1) Have a RIGOROUS background check for new guns sales. That means when Joker Holmes goes to buy a gun, we call his school, we call his mommy if he's under 30, we call his job, and when all of them tell us he's batshit crazy and ought to be medicated, not armed, we don't sell him a gun.
2) Everyone who currently has a gun needs to get licensed to have it, and the license should be as rigourous as getting one for an automobile. I'd go one further. I have a DL for my car, but not one for driving an 18 wheeler. You want a more powerful weapon, you have to a) show cause why you need that much firepower (Penis compensation doesn't count) and b) Have to undergo rigourous training.
3) Ban the sale or ownership of magazines with more than 10 round capacity.
4) Make the sale of guns at gun shows illegal. Period.
5) Make the sale of guns online illegal. Period.
6) Reinstitute the Assault Weapons Ban.
And not a damned one of those things would have stopped any of the massacres we have endured over the last twenty years, some done while the AWB was in place, you liar.
That is because your goal is NOT to stop the masacres. You libtards get too much mileage off them.
And if all that fails, we should do what every other industrialized democracy has done. Ban private gun ownership altogether, because that IS how the rest of the world works.
There are half a dozen industrialized countries in Europe who have much higher homicide rates than the US, you fucking liar.
List of countries by intentional homicide rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Russia, the Ukraine, Lithuania, Estonia, Belarus, and Georgia (in the Caucasus Mountain region). The US is way down that list; something that no doubt drives you fascist thugs fucking crazy, lol.
Would it kill you to ever use an actual fact?
