What's the Deal? I thought banning 'assault weapons', firearm confiscations, 'Gun-Free Zones', etc... was supposed to stop mass shootings?!
"California has an “assault weapons” ban and firearm confiscation orders, but neither control prevented the Tuesday attack at YouTube’s San Bruno headquarters.
Ironically, “assault weapons” bans and confiscation orders have been put forward as controls needed in the aftermath of the February 14 Parkland school shooting. Gun control proponents also pushed universal background checks and waiting periods following the Parkland attack, but California has both of those too.
In fact, California has some of the most stringent gun controls in the country. The “assault weapons” ban, confiscation orders, universal background checks, and 10-day waiting period are complimented by a requirement that would-be firearm owners acquire a safety certificate from the state, that all firearms be registered with the state, and that law-abiding citizens pursuing a concealed carry permit demonstrate “good cause” for wanting to carry a gun.
Ammunition controls already exist in California, too. These require that Californians only buy ammunition from state-approved vendors and, starting January 1, 2019, will require residents to pass a point-of-sale background check for a box of bullets.
But none of these controls prevented Nasim Aghdam from possessing a handgun with which she injured three then killed herself at YouTube headquarters."
'Assault Weapons' Ban, Firearm Confiscation Orders Did Not Prevent YouTube Shooting
I think this witness of the shooting has a better grasp on things than Liberals do:
After the Parkland shooting there was another shooting in Maryland...which you might not have heard about because the Leftists did not highly publicize it or the details concerning the incident. A shooter entered a school and began shooting. Unlike Parkland, the victims were not defenseless. Immediately after wounding 3 people the attacker was dropped dead on the floor by an armed guard / employee.
I would be willing to bet that had that witness been armed at least one if not more of the people killed in the YouTube shooting might still be alive.
Parkland: Shooter - 17 kills
Maryland: Shooter - 0 Kills, shooter killed
YouTube: Shooter - 3 Kills
Assault Weapon Ban / Gun Confiscation - FAIL
