But you didn't say that. You went on a diatribe against the people who say this proves we need more guns, when no one here tried to say that.

As for making it harder to get a permit, would that affect this case? Did this guy have a criminal record? Would a psychological evaluation have turned up anything? I don't know. Maybe he went through all that, and managed to fool the system. It's obvious now that he has serious problems, but was it obvious the day he got the permit?
