    The low life that killed those folks was trying to strike at the NFL. Claims he suffered from CTE. I don't think he played in college even.

    Last I read, they didn't know the motive, but I was wondering if it was NFL related.

    Jagoff killing people because of brain problems he blames on NFL. Dickhead never played in the NFL.

    He had been hospitalized for mental health issues twice in the last few years.

    I would think 99.9999999% of people murdering other people have brain problems. The others are just a$$ho1es. I don't find that news as any revelation. Mental illness can manifest in any conceivable way. Doesn't make this any less tragic or horrible. Just how it is.

    I was reading about this shooting earlier. In addition to his mental health issues he had a concealed carry permit. How the **** do you get put in an institution twice and still acquire a concealed carry permit? In the article I read they reached out to the local pd inquiring about that and they were told to ask the New York City police department. Wtf

    Where I live it's a constitutional carry state. No permit required by law. Everyone has the right. But there are exceptions for that, felons, addicts, mental health patients, etc. But if you're not required to get a permit, I guess it's on the honor system?

    You still have to do a background check to purchase through any licensed gun dealer. They passed constitutional carry here a year or two back. I think it’s stupid, but so are our background checks. Answer these 20 true or false questions and you’ll be on your way in a couple minutes.

    There is more to it than simply answering 20 questions. Once you've answered the questions then they run a full background check on you. Unfortunately mental health issues are not included due to medical confidentiality.

    No. There isn’t. You put your name etc on a form, answer the 20 true or false questions, hand the dealer the form and your id and it gets faxed to the fbi. Most background checks are approved within minutes. It’s that simple.

    ok there is still an FBI background check run. In PA you have to wait until it's approved and the license mailed to you. It would solve everything if the states went to constitutional carry

    Constitutional carry will fix what exactly?

    The need for normal citizens to protect themselves against the craziness of our country. I've been a licensed carry person for over 30 years. If you're a citizen of the US you should be allowed to carry to protect yourself.
