Nope.....

So maybe they need to start taking precautions like they do elsewhere, metal detectors and security

90% of gun violence comes from hand-guns.

read up liberals and stop trying to score political points over the death of these kids.

Did you see the disgusting lie MSNBC twitted out, these people should be fired and thrown into jail for what they're doing.

The real question is why is there more mass shootings then anytime in history what other factors are there mental illness possibly.
How about these statistics?

Here's the run down.

You walk into a gun store or a gun show. You want to buy a firearm.

You need to do the following.
For all guns, present a form of ID- a Drivers License, for pistols depending on state law, 3 day wait or carry out same day with a concealed weapons permit/license.
Fill out an ATF form 4473. Lie on it, you commit a felony...
Your information goes on this form.

Per gun control act 1968.
18 U.S. Code § 922 - Unlawful acts
US Code

(a) It shall be unlawful—
(1) for any person—

(4) has been adjudicated as a mental defective or has been committed to any mental institution;

Better tell your GOP representatives.
