Atlanta Shooting Suspect Bought His Gun the Same Day He Allegedly Killed 8 People
https://www.vice.com/en/article/7k9njz/atlanta-shooting-suspect-bought-his-gun-the-same-day-he-allegedly-killed-8-peopleThe 21-year-old was able to purchase his weapon the same day as the alleged crime, as police said Wednesday, because Georgia has no waiting period for purchasing a gun. The state also doesn’t require weapons sellers to do a background check for licensed gun owners; a state-issued photo ID is all that’s required.
It is easier to buy a gun in Georgia than to vote. Because the GQP thinks having a gun is an unrestricted right and voting is a privileged to be limited.
