Very sad...yet again. My heart goes out to all those victims' parents who don't oppose universal background checks and mental health screening of gun owners.

Sadly, if he had that very opportunity, the evil in Tom's heart would act on it. That's where the left is at these days. Unhinged, dangerous lunacy bent on destroying and physically ousting their opposition. Yay open mindedness!!!!

He's already well proven through various commentary on here he's not opposed to that very result.
Hey, if you register your guns, pass a mental health and safety test, let the police take a gun signature of the barrel, and not modify the gun, then you should be okay. And sell your gun only at police station or other strongly regulated environment.
nothing totalitarian about that at all. well done.
how about an annual mental health and safety test before you are allowed to vote. let the police pick people up and you can take the test at your local precinct in a strongly regulated environment. let the president appoint a commission to set up the standards for the test.
why not just burn the constitution.

You have to register to vote already. You vote in a highly regulated environment too.

You don't know me. I'll let you get back to trying to defend zero effective regulation of firearms in the face of massive numbers of deaths from poorly regulated firearms.
315 Americans are killed every day by firearms. What's your solution?

Your European style gun control laws cannot come into existence without that. CANNOT. You know this.
The practical action is to try to find ways to do things like keep mentally ill minors who threaten others and have firearms from having them and keep them from acting out and/or gaining access to places that they have threatened.
Or you can keep screaming for something that you KNOW you cannot get because you think it scores partisan political points and preys on emotional reactions to tragedy.

Its not unconstitutional
1) to have a database with every gun in it
2) to enact mandatory minimum jail time for not registering the firearm
3) to hold gun owners strictly liable for the firearms
4) to tax guns and ammo
5) to require licensing and mental health evaluations for firearm ownership
None of these things require a constitutional amendment.
The government can't engage in law-making designed to make the individual right to keep and bear arms a right on name only. For instance, charging outrageous taxes on ammo, or putting requirements on gun manufacturers designed to run them out of business, or requiring citizens to purchase insurance that is not available or likely to be available except at unaffordable costs. Sort of like the government can't enact poll taxes or trivia tests designed to keep people from their Constitutional voting rights.
Sure, you can increase the hoops, make a little more paperwork, make it so poor people have a marginally harder time affording firearms. But you'll never achieve your goal because each American has a right to keep and bear arms.
Its a political wedge issue that allows you to call your political opponents heartless during every tragedy...forever.
If you are actually interested in preventing these, you might try the possible rather than the impossible.

Can I get a make and model? Just like in Orlando, the fake news can't be trusted not to mistake any gun for an AR-15.
Besides, if there weren't AR-15s (dressed-up varmint rifles), it would just be something else. VA. Tech shooter killed more with a handgun.

I've provided a solution. What's the pro-poorly regulated gun advocates propose?
I almost expect the NRA to advocate arming high school students.

What if they are right tom?
It means nothing. White nationalists have killed more. The key is how do we stop males who are right wing from using firearms to kill lots of people AND non-right wing males from using firearms to kill lots of people.
Seriously, if say, 1% of mass shootings ae by non-right wingers, and Gateway Pundit and Infowars automatically accuse whomever the shooter is of being a liberal or a Muslim, the might be correct 1% of the time or so. But it doesn't validate their 'reporting'. BTW, Gateway actually named the wrong person in the Las Vegas incident.
Most likely, this dude just got off on gun violence.
Apparently, this kid was a KNOWN problem. All kinds of kids at the school saying everyone talked about this for a while, "He's gonna shoot up the school" being a common quote. That's not a gun problem. That a social discipline problem. That means people have known this kid has issues and nobody in the HOME or PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM have had the balls and/or LEGAL capability to do something about it. He was 19 years old, and recently expelled from school. THOSE are the real issues. An America with no RESPONSIBILITY and REPERCUSSIONS for actions leads to this BS. There are families out there tonight dealing with a loss of a young family member because this kid's parents, community, and the education system don't actually deal with issues appropriately. The kid made threats of killing people last year and their response to teachers was "don't allow him on school grounds with a book bag." WTF. Seriously, WTF. That kid needed to be in juvenile detention at the LEAST (if not male jail) for communicating threats, but no... we'll just say "don't let him on school grounds with a book bag" and that will solve the issue.
This is NOT a gun issue, it's a social responsibility issue to deal with the asshats of society that are incapable of living real life with the rest of us normal thinking humans that don't resort to killing someone because they're upset at something.
Yes sir, you are correct.
