The guy in this article, apparently was going to do the same thing that they Orlando lunatic did, and I doubt that he is an radical Islamic terrorist.

Would have gun control measures stopped these attacks?

the piece of shit in Charleston should never have been able to buy a gun but the back ground check failed because of big government. So you cant even complete valid gun checks...

So say we do eliminate assault weapons and high capacity mags...the terrorists gonna stop killing us? Is Chicago (strictest gun laws in the history of the country, also murder capital the last 10 years) killings gonna stop?
No and No.

You can't know until you try. We can't even try, that's my whole point. NRA is always buying off politicians, who block any type of reform.

Gun-control advocates have been pushing for a ban on assault weapons for more than 25 years. This proposal is essentially a political gimmick that confuses people. That is because the term is an arbitrarily defined epithet. A federal ban was in place between 1994 and 2004, but Congress declined to renew it after studies showed it had no crime-reducing impact.

good stuff here if you get a chance.

I think we should close the gun show loop hole so we can just align existing policies. I don't think suspected terrorist should have the ability to get a weapon and I also strongly believe people who have serious mental illness should not be allowed to own or posses a fire arm. That being said, It will not stop the amazing high shooting in Chicago, most likely will not limit mass/spree killings and certainly will not stop terrorist from attacking this country.
