Did they pass a law saying that “if anyone ever comes up with something called “crack,” it’s illegal”?

The reason crack was illegal from the day it was created is because it’s cocaine.

People will cry out about privacy violations but honestly, if they are not capable of owning a firearm they should not be able to get one.

It’s very reasonable and does not restrict anyone’s right to LAWFULLY own a gun.

- Require background checks for every gun purchase (74% NRA member support);
- Require background checks on gun shop employees (79% NRA member support);
- Prohibit individuals on the terrorist watch list from purchasing firearms (71% NRA member support);
- Require gun owners to report to police when their guns are lost or stolen (64% NRA member supports); and
- Establish minimum standards for concealed carry permits (63-75% NRA member support for each standard)

But you’re right, these laws wouldn’t have kept him from having access to these guns. They might have helped in other situations, but not this one. So maybe the law needs to go further.

Really man, shouldn’t you need some kind of license to own those things?
