        Unfortunately there are a depressingly large number of people who still wish this kid had access to a gun.

        Oh yes! They believe that even though he had a history of mental illness, troubled youth, he still should have been able to practice his 2A rights. Esp. because of who he was targeting.

        Is there still anybody who says that common sense gun laws cannot prevent a tragedy?

        Now, here’s an example of parents that take the appropriate steps to be responsible for their children’s actions in denying him access to a gun. I thank them!

        And who had a LAW they could cite to the son to give them a real reason to do it. That's the whole POINT of the gun laws, to make it so everyone has the tools to stop the wrong people from getting their hands on the things that can kill masses of people in a short time.

        Wait, you mean to tell me a combination of common-sense gun laws and common-sense parenting prevented a national incident? Shannon. That’s absurd. 🙄 Shoutout to Maryland for getting it.

        The “teenager” in question is 19 years old and should have his picture published.
