    Shannon Watts Retweeted NBC DFW

    A potential mass shooter in Texas failed a background check and was on his way to purchase a gun from a private seller when he was stopped by police. A shooting tragedy was averted only because his father called the police. Background checks work. Close the loopholes. #txlegehttps://twitter.com/NBCDFW/status/1171271339212189697 …

        Totalitarianism prevents gun crimes too! Let us subject all of our liberty in exchange for the security of an all powerful government. Assimilate to the borg or be terminated! Vote blue!

        It helps when family members are not in denial and they report dangerous relatives.

        This is what really does annoy me about the gun debate. We’ve argued over The 2nd amendment for decades and that’s fine. The fact though that we don’t prevent private sales like this from happening is beyond me. What would’ve happened if he got a gun? There’s too many loopholes.

        Yeah, it’s never “a good guy with a gun” who prevents mass shootings, it’s always a competent civil servant with well-written laws.
