    My guess is this was a handgun, and he had no criminal record. My guess is there was no gun safety required or taken, but this still may have happened and it’s tragic. But as for school shooting, criminal, and gang violence, there’s a shit ton of laws that could make it more difficult and less likely, without taking away the right for self defense.

      What laws will do that? You know it’s illegal to convert a firearm that’s semi-auto to automatic? Yet gangs and kids who aren’t even allowed to own them, post videos of their handguns online, and the ATF and local law enforcement doesn’t do shit about it. So I’d love to hear you’re thoughts on what laws would curb gang violence and school shootings.
