Yet another mass shooting by a mentally disturbed young man......the cause of which was his mental illness. As with every one of these tragic events the left will call for more gun control. Here are some facts that demonstrate the folly of gun laws and the absolute need to to tackle the real cause of these mass shootings.
Highland Park banned sporting rifles in the city a decade ago.
Illinois requires a universal background check for firearm purchases.
Illinois also requires what is called an FOID card to even shoot at a range. The perp got one with his Dad co-signing.....his Dad is in deep trouble.
Illinois has red flag laws.
The perp was known to the police, as was his family. He had a long history of mental illness going back to middle school. Posted tons of graphic, violent videos on line....the red flags were everywhere and yet here we are.
The perp bought his guns legally....which makes me sick to my stomach.
So basically all the elements in the recently passed gun law and then some were in play with this recent shooting.....and none of them stopped this mentally deranged young man from committing this crime. And no, he was not a right wing Trump supporter as the govt media is trying to portray him. Like the shooter in Buffalo, he was steeped in violence, hip hop, drugs and alcohol, supported Antifa and appears to come from a dysfunctional family. Ask yourself this question.....how many of these mass shooters come from a functional, two parent family that believe in Judeo-Christian values?
It's the cultural rot that is causing these shootings and no amount of laws will prevent them. Oh and by the way, over the 4th of July weekend 60 to 70 people were shot in Chicago and 8 to 10 died from gun violence in a city with some of the strictest gun laws in the country.......not a peep out of the govt media because it is mostly black on black violence so it doesn't fit their narrative.
