Well he only broke a few dozen laws - a few more and that would have probably caused him to think twice. /sarc

If we only had universal backgrouind checks that would have stopped him from buying a pistol for someone who is not a dealer - which he passed the background check from a dealer.

If only we could pass a law to make illegal things illegal.  Worked great for alcohol, immigration, drugs, child sex crimes, child abuse, murder, speeding, DUI, DWI - on and on and on and on.  

One blanket law - Do good, or well we may not even punish you if the bad is just not *that* bad - subject to interpertation on a case by case basis as to what the definition of bad is that day and in that jurisdiction.
