I am not an NRA member or in law enforcement, but I don't have issue with either organization. I don't own a gun, but I have no issue with people owning guns.

I read most of your comments, and most of you are trying to place blame on someone who failed to provide us, the public, safety from this man and safety for himself.

The FBI didn't fail. The APD didn't fail. And the NRA didn't cause this failure.

The mental health facility/doctor who treated this man failed him and the rest of us.

There are already Federal Laws in place that prevent people from buying or POSSESSING  a firearm if certain mental health criteria are met.

By this man admitting that he was hearing voices, or thought his actions were being influenced by a source outside his own mind....he should have been deemed too unwell by this doctor or mental health facility to continue to have firearms in his possession.

Why this conclusion was not reached is the question that needs to be answered by the mental facility.
