        Good research USA Today! What Trump repealed was a rule Obama put in place (1 month before he left office) that stated anyone getting Social Security Disability payments, through a representive payee, can not buy a gun. The shooter was NOT on SS Disability!

        Why repeal something that makes sense and is easily cheaply enforceable? I’ll tell you why because the NRA gave Trump/GOP $30 million in 2016.

        Anyone who is/was not mentally ill knew that was an imprudent decision. The USA has per capita more guns than any country in the world and it has been statistically documented that the more guns the more deaths by gun; the USA is the world leader in gun deaths.

        You know what we say in our country: it goes from ear 👂 and go out of the other. Even death 💀 can not make them to listnen, the @POTUS is not sad he is frustrated he has his hand tied to NRA, cannot do anything. @realDonaldTrump + GOP Consented Silence.

        It was actually an action brought by the ACLU, but never let the facts get in the way of your agenda @USATODAY . #fakeNews

        People who are mentally ill and on medication should not be allowed to purchase guns of any kind.

        Mentally ill should not be able to buy a gun, neither should any citizen be able to purchase an automatic rifle unless done under strict license and kept on a national register...

        Trump said it's about mental illness in his speech regarding the FL school shooting. Obviously changing everthing Obama put in place is about revenge against Obama for calling him out at an event about his birth certificate. Our president is s "small" man... it's all about him.
