Question for gun dudes.
When a background check is done, does it show previous purchases of guns?
Shouldn’t there be a heads up after let’s say, a dozen guns?

I’m wondering if all of them were registered to him or someone else was in cahoots with him.

I don’t believe he used more than two weapons. From what I heard it sounded like two different guns being fired.

Let’s say he used four, for argument’s sale,

What good would stopping him after he bought his 12th weapon?

What would that have prevented in the case of the Las Vegas shooting?

If a law wouldn’t have real world results, why even suggest it?

Not trying to be overly critical, but this clearly wouldn’t help.

1. Mandalay Bay hotel is a gun free zone

2. It is illegal to kill people

3. Las Vegas has some strict gun laws, some of which this man broke

Laws are not the problem. We have plenty of them now.

"No" and "No"

if all of them were registered to him

What do you mean by "registered"? In sane States, there is no "registered".

Ahh, so you favor "one gun a month" legislation?
