The arrest warrant affidavit for Alissa says he purchased a gun less than a week before Monday's shooting, citing official databases that show the suspect bought a Ruger AR-556 on March 16.
NPR's "Morning Edition" show mentioned this particular fact as part of their ongoing reporting on Boulder, but did also add that a concrete connection has yet to be established between the two events.

Because fuck voting but yay guns!
We need to pass laws on huge financial liability for the registered owners of guns needing insurance and most insurance wouldnt approve it.
It would be a barrier.
No insurance no gun.
