Is there any logical reason to conclude that this crime would never had occurred if the killer had been prevented from legally buying a gun? What law are they going to pass to stop people from buying guns illegally? This completely ignores that there are far more effective and attainable weapons to commit mass murder with. We can’t ban everything.

With this killer, it would not have mattered as far as his acquiring a firearm goes. It could have raised some red flags though....not that there was a shortage of raised flags already.
