    In my opinion I think that before we sell guns to people they need a full background check including medical records in order to see if they have a mental disorder and criminal history because a majority of news stories today talk about shooters having mental disorders. It annoys me that this has been the excuse that most of the shooters use in cases.

    The fact that the FBI found him before he went through with his plan gives me a feeling of reassurance in our government; things like this are a a major positive to the technology we have today. I agree that guns should be controlled far more heavily than they are, but even then there will always be a black market.

    I think america should not release anyone who tries to do something like that at all. I think this guy going to custody only for 17 years. No they should put him in jail for life, until he suffer there.

    Mental disorders are something serious these days. We must take better action on helping those who feel or are mentally disordered. We have been having a lot of school shootings lately and now this guy almost attacks the government. The government it’s self should take serious action on the matter and find a solution to all these shootings/bombings. We will keep losing lives if this keeps up.

    This proves that there are many changes to the interpretation of the bill of rights that should be taken into consideration. when the fathers of the constitution drafted the bill of rights what they meant by every citizen having the right to bear arms, even today’s right to own a gun and often many guns by every citizen is at question. what if they meant that patriot “minutemen” volunteers could form a farmer army to protect their natural rights? We have an American right to wield the gun to fire at attackers invaders. This very idea of just warfare or having a right to fire on another person was later defined by the Geneva conventions which established the rules to warfare. These weren’t conceived until after world war I bu I think the founding fathers had this idea more in mind when they formed the 2nd Amendment.
