You may be tortured by truth but others are not...we have laws for buying guns...you must go through an FBI back round check... Cruz legally purchased his legal weapon after the FBI was given his name and his haunting you tube post...they let him slip through their fingers...they let the Vegas shooter buy hundreds of guns bump stocks and thousands of rounds of ammo in a three month period of time...until the FBI gets their shit together no new gun law will do anything to stop this...Please don't torture us with your absurd automobile strawman again. Forty years of that nonsense is enough
I am absolutely amazed at the level of ignorance that is routinely display on this board about matters of law.
1. You do NOT have to go through a background check to buy a gun from somebody who is not a licensed dealer. For crying out loud, that is one of the laws we want to change!
2. It is not illegal to post anything on social media unless it is a threat to a specific person, or persons.
3. it is not illegal to stockpile thousands of rounds of ammo and/or bumpstocks.
4. the FBI can not do anything to anyone who is not in the process of breaking the law. In fact, if they DID try to do something about the guy in Vegas, they would have been breaking the law, themselves.
Having said the above, how can you or anyone else claim that the gun problem is due to failure to enforce existing laws. In neither Florida, nor Vegas, was any law broken before the first shot was fired.
Its up to the States, California, New York and other liberal cess pools have background checks for private sales. Currently 9 states do so
Also, there was a law broken before the shots. The shooter did not honor the gun free zone at the school
