Im pro gun, but can you explain to me how common sense gun control would not have stopped this last school shooting? The kid was reported to have mental issues, the FBI and Police were aware that he had guns, and was threatening people, annnnnd 17 dead kids.

because, thanks to common sense gun control that already exists he was meant to be on a no buy list, but the bureaucracy screwed up and he slipped through the cracks.

The law should have been able to intervene and stop him but accidents happen.
So, the gun control advocates, tell the people that there is no common sense gun control, so the people go out and demand that we create common sense laws!
However, we've been doing that, for decades... And 9/10 times the laws dont change the shootings.. so the go out and tell you we need more laws.
Now, people who fight for the protection of the bill of rights, say, hey, you're just creating a inefficient law, then another, and another, and youre not fixing any of the broken ones you're just adding new ones, and after a period of time, BAM they all pile up and we realize they just skirted around the SA and infringed on our rights to own guns.
this isnt a slippery slope, its the open strategy on the left to ban guns. Incremental change. Very rarely does a bad law, go away. In the history of gun laws, only 1 has gone away, and that was because the NRA added the provision that the assault weapons ban would be reviewed in 10 years and if it had no obvious effect on gun crime it would not be renewed (thank you NRA)
So in summation, the common sense law already works, you have a probem with how the government operates, not that there is no law that should prevent that kid from getting a gun. Because there is. It was just a blunder on our broken, inefficient, government.
Does that clear it up or make you think maybe that you might be fed misinformation at the very least? The missinformation (if you see in earlier pages of this thread) is big, so its not an attack, its easy to be missinformed about this, when literaly President Obama goes out on national TV and straight up LIES about the law, and still hasnt admitted it.
