What do you propose would have prevented this? I am only guessing based on what I heard, but it sounded like the guy had a fully-automatic weapon. These are illegal/inaccessible for the overwhelming majority of Americans, and require extensive (6 month long) background checks. They also cost tens of thousands of dollars. 

Furthermore, any automatic weapons produced after 1986 are illegal to own by civilians, and can only be manufactured for military purposes. 

Are you trying to defend him or attack me for wanting something to be done.  Nothing that you said changes the fact that people are dead.  I would have real laws to go after and track illegal weapons.  Obviously it wasn't hard for him to find right? What is actually wrong with you?  Gun control isn't about taking everyone's guns. It's about control and we have none right bone.  I am sick of the 'Oh well' mentality. 

May I ask what laws would have prevented this from happening?

What on record was wrong with this guy beyond I hear some form of Autism? Should all Autistic people be banned from guns? What about terrorist list? Did you know that some congressmen were on teh terrorist list. I'm all for a good ban list of people, but I'm not sure I trust how and who gets put on that list.

For instance, did you know that in 13 states you get put on the sex offender list for peeing in public. Lets say we prevent all sex offenders from owning a gun. That makes sense and seems common sense when said aloud right? Yet my first sentence shows that something as innocent as someone peeing outside could put them on the list.
