And a crazed maniac like that could have used a vehicle or even gasoline and matches for his rampage.

A person wanting to cause chaos and death has many options.

Just to warn you; there are many more shooters just like him stockpiling weapons and ammunition and making plans to commit a mass shooting.

But in this case as in most other mass murders he used a gun which was easily accessible.

And even with allbthe laws against herione and cocaine, thet are easily accessible.

The only accessibility gun laws will curtail are for people who CHOOSE to obey such laws.

News flash, criminals typically don't obey laws.

How many people in Nice were killed with that box truck?

Cherry picking today? However, if you must ask; many more in the US have been killed by guns than the box truck in Nice.

But back to the point: why don't those killers in the US kill with box trucks instead of guns?
