You are still assuming he did not have the rifle prior to his mental health crisis.The air force paid out a very large settlement for NOT putting Kelley's name in the database.
Ah, if only we held the gun stores to the same standard.
He bought it days before.You are still assume e did not have the rifle prior to his mental health crisis.
And again you do not understand the process. All the gun store does is send the background check to the state where it is chedked.
Because they are soulless monsters?Why would you want to hold the gun store accountable if they followed the procedure?
Gun stores don't put info into the data base. The Air Force should have.The air force paid out a very large settlement for NOT putting Kelley's name in the database.
Ah, if only we held the gun stores to the same standard.
It remained unclear when he purchased the specific rifle that he had used in the attack.He bought it days before.
And those checks are inadequate.
Because they are soulless monsters?
Feel free to demonstrate that silly notion in regards to Alexander Hamilton's death. I'll wait.Sounds AWESOME. Every state should have these laws.
The Second Amendment is about Militias that don't exist anymore.

Kind of hard for the government to do its job if it doesn't have the laws that allow it and a lobby of crazy people who sue over even the most common sense gun law.
But simple enough solution. The gun industry can do it's own vetting... and they get held accountable when they sell to the wrong person.
Problem solved.

Gunman in Maine Mass Shooting Had Paranoid Beliefs, Officials Say
The man was found dead on Friday night, ending a two-day manhunt. The police said he had legally purchased several guns, including in recent days.www.nytimes.com
And the. We have this:
Sources: Suspect bought gun legally days before psychiatric evaluation
Earlier Friday, multiple law enforcement sources told CNN the gun investigators believe Card used to carry out the massacre was purchased legally just days before he was hospitalized and ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation in July.
It is being reported he purchased the weapon before this happened:
A federal law enforcement source told CNN the army gave Card a “Command Referral” to seek treatment after he told army personnel at Camp Smith Card had been “hearing voices” and had thoughts about “hurting other soldiers.” A National Guard spokesperson confirmed to CNN Card was transported to the nearby Keller Army Community Hospital at the United States Military Academy for “medical evaluation,” after Army Reserve officials reported Card for “behaving erratically.”
Card’s encounters with New York State Police and his National Guard superiors occurred just 10 days after Card had purchased the high-powered rifle at a Maine gun store, according to law enforcement sources. The rifle was a Ruger SFAR chambered for high-powered .308 ammunition, the sources added. The .308 round is favored by military snipers firing at long distances and big game hunters. It is larger and more powerful than the regular ammunition carried in the rifles of soldiers and SWAT teams.
Sources say the weapon found inside Card’s 2013 white Subaru Outback appears to be the same one fired by the gunman at the bowling alley and a local bar, though a ballistics match has not been confirmed. The weapon will be processed by the FBI and ATF for fingerprints and DNA and then run through laboratory testing to determine if the bullets and shell casings found at the scene match.
In the same July purchase, along with the rifle, sources say Card also bought a Beretta 92-F 9mm semi-automatic pistol. It is the standard pistol of the US military.
England's homicide rate increased 23% in 2022. The United States' homicide rate decreased by 6%. So far, the 2023 crime rate has decreased in The United States at an historic rate.And Canada and Europe have nowhere near our homicide and crime rates.
Again, sounds like a great idea.
Maine has a red flag law. The Army dropped the ball by not notifying the necessary authorities of Card's mental problems.Kind of hard for the government to do its job if it doesn't have the laws that allow it and a lobby of crazy people who sue over even the most common sense gun law.

The second amendment is about what exists without an institution of a collective state , when natural freedoms include moral relativism in nature .Sounds AWESOME. Every state should have these laws.

maine has a yellow flag law.....Maine has a red flag law. The Army dropped the ball by not notifying the necessary authorities of Card's mental problems.
The reason they want that...Mandatory Registration of all guns.
All guns must be stored in a locked place.
The reason they want that...
...is so that the men they send to your home with guns from the government know whose doors to knock on for random, arbitrary inspections to see if you have them in a locked place.
How else would they enforce it?
Clever way around the Fourth...
Gun stores don't put info into the data base. The Air Force should have.
maine has a yellow flag law.....
Actually, the seem to have notified the police, and part of the process is having the suspect evaluated by a psychiatric professional before the police can go to a judge to get the court order to pull the guns and list the guy on the prohibited list...so, the guy was already in the psych unit, had been evaluated, the shrink notified his miltary unit, they called the cops.....so they already had the psych evaluation that would have allowed them to go to a judge........and they didn't.......they dropped the ball...and are now going to be sued into oblivion.
I got to stop you right there. Because this BULLSHIT that "I punched his name into the database, and nothing came up" is utter BULLSHIT.
When I applied for a home loan in 2022, I didn't just rely on them to punch my name into a database. I had to provide evidence of EVERY Aspect of my financial life to get a loan. The process took 30 days even though I had an 800+ Credit score and no debt other than my current mortgage on the property I had an offer for.
When I applied for my current job, they didn't just punch my name into a database. Even though my candidacy for the job was promoted by a manager who already had good reputation in the company, they did a thorough background check including my finances, work history, associates, etc.
My wife is currently in the process of changing her immigration status from a work visa to a marriage visa. They aren't just punching her name into a database, we are required to provide a shitload of evidence that we are indeed married.
So this UTTER FUCKING BULLSHIT that because a gun store typed a name into a database, and gosh darn, that's good enough and totally not his fault when he mows down busload of preschoolers.
EVERY LAST TIME we have one of these incidents, we find out how crazy the guy who did the shooting was before the bodies are cold.
etcWhen I applied for a home loan in 2022
