press virginia: sooo you want to ban their purchase of a gun used in 11% of mass shootings and then cite a woman who was using a gun that was obtained illegally

Yes I do to suspect terrorists, & yes I did. That she obtained the gun illicitly & was not on a terror watch list is beside the point, since any gun control measure will likely not block all violations, only temper them. A 10% improvement is better than the current status quo - even a faint pulse is better than a flat line.

makes toooootal sense
