Basic moral of the story is anyone who's had a FBI background check coming up with "Questioned for ties to Terrorist groups" should not be allowed to purchase guns. Just a short quick list no more difficult to implement than the publicly run sexual predator database with name and photo ID would prevent ease of purchase.

Besides anyone with a lathe and basic metal tinkering skill with a free online handbook can make an AR-15 or AK-47. Rifling and gunsmithing has been not-a-secret for at least 100 years now.

Shall we not forget there is free open source magazine 3d printer files anyone can use? Some are actually better than stock or bigger magazines?

All banning or restriction does is raise the barriers of entry to weapons, and makes a blackmarket for such things thrive and unregulated.

The real point being identify real threats rather than reactionary policy waving.

The FBI closed the file because they found no credible evidence that he was tied to terrorist groups though

sounds to me like they failed somewhere in that chain of interest, incompetence is a known quality of all government agency. This is also why I don't like the idea of a government oriented ban on firearms, they don't have a good track record.

American society is far more fractured and dysfunctional due to its far more diverse makeup and related racial baggage

Americans kill more people with their bare hands than Europeans do with all things combined

Imagine if you banned guns and criminals had to resort to swords and axes and poo poo.

When you turn on the TV and there is a gang fight going to you would see some wicked cool sword fights and crossbow kills and poo poo like that before the police ride in on their horses and start stabbing dudes.

It would make crime as a spectator sport way more interesting.

yeah people dont understand how common it was to have an ammo reloading bench in the basement back in the glory days, or that a gun cabinet was a standard feature in a mail-order Sears Roebuck home. People like to pretend that modifying guns and adding attachments hasnt been a staple of american culture along the likes of a game of baseball or an apple pie.
