I saw this on CNN. Possibly an employee who shot other employees them himself but it hasn't been confirmed.
So tragic.

But easy access to guns isn't a problem.

Guns are not as easily accessible as they used to be. We have an angry nation and that anger primarily originates in DC.

I’m angry too but you don’t see me walking into my workplace looking to die. To commit suicide is bad enough. To take people out with you is quite another and probably has nothing to do with DC. It has more to do with his workplace and his illness. Our problem is we do a lousy job keeping guns away from the mental ill. He may have been fine when he bought the gun but slowly got worse. Gun ownership should be like my professional license. Register every year or two, get tested at the gun range and maybe back ground check at intervals. And if your family member is losing it take his guns. I would and if he wanted to turn me in for theft fine. At least they’d be at the bottom of the nearest canal. But idk anything about this guy. It’s all so senseless.

Sadly, what else is new?
And again, this will end up swept under the rug, gun rights will win and let’s wait for the next shooting. It’s the American way.

That doesn’t mean the access isn’t still easy. It’s nice that it’s not as easy as it was before. It doesn’t mean it’s not easy now.
