There;s no fact at all in your statement.
Gun nuts seem to not have access to a thesaurus
Your pejorative aside, it's amusing to see a person who can't comprehend a definition talk about thesauruses.
Sellers, merchants, dealers, brokers, etc... your arguing that a deranged lunatic going to a gun show and buying a weapon no questions asked is fine if the one selling the firearm is called a different name that means the same thing is hilarious. It’s the same tactics the Catholic Church used to excuse priests who raped kids.
How come a background check didn't stop Adam Lanza, Nicholas Cruz, the San Bernadino shooters, Omar Mateen, etc., etc.? Shouldn't a proposed solution be related to addressing the problem at hand?
Because the background checks were not invasive enough in some cases.
In other cases like Lanza….his mother had the arsenal in the house with a diagnosed mentally ill individual and the result was 26 people were killed.
It is good to see that you guys have given up on blaming Hollywood and Video Games (for the time being).
The blame is in the following order: parents, teachers, government officials, doctors, and Big Pharma. I don't know who "you guys" are supposed to be, but over the last decade I have been able to spot mass shooters years before they pick up their first weapon. I know what it would take to stop them. The left won't consider the plan because they have a religion that is all about control. The right has become a bunch of reactionaries unwilling to take the lead and stop the gun banners in their tracks.
Hollywood and video games offer up a piece of the puzzle, but like all the other pieces, you have got to have all the right pieces of the puzzle to understand the problem and the solution. It won't fit on a bumper sticker, so it isn't worth repeating over and over to people who think gun control via unconstitutional background checks is some kind of solution.
