Know how I know you've never purchased or tried to purchase a firearm?

What do you think a 4473 is?

Im actually thinking of pairing up with a system programmer to figure out the registration and card deal to bring it to senators and congress to start pushing the idea. Would be tough to fight the influence of the NRA, but this isnt a losing situation for anyone thats legal.

Thats old school. Need a new system. And less gun sellers.
Thats all Im trying to talk about is a new solution, because the current system isnt keeping the crime down.

Does that make excusing his behavior any different?
What is the point of your question? I merely stated he was not a kid, as you claimed he was. That's it. There was nothing else said nor implied. Relax.

No gang.

Not an illegal alien.

Not an apparent Muslim.

This will continue to occur in the US until something is done. There are some with very good suggestions in this thread as to what can be tried.

Oh and by the way, school just started for many. I pray it won’t happen again but our (US) history says otherwise.

So you admit you're wrong then about gun stores not performing background checks. Firearms are traced from their manufacturer to the distributor to the retailer to the purchaser.

And there's plenty of paperwork involved to document it. Take your feelings and go for a hike.
