No, sorry, there is a sarcasm marker missing there.  I feel like everyone
blames the firearms when, in this case and many others, law enforcement did
not do their job beforehand.  Had they done so, the problem would have been
less likely to occur.

OTOH, if someone that messed up did not have a gun, they'd have just built
a bomb or run a bunch of classmates over with a vehicle.  ISIS has proven
that in Europe quite a few times... no guns is not a problem for lunatics
and dumbasses.

My honest opinion is that the FBI needs to stop looking for dirt on the
President, get off their asses, and do their real job of keeping us safe.
