This guy went to Dick's Sporting Goods to buy a rifle. Connecticut has a waiting period and that stopped the purchase. That gun law worked.
But he had a mother with a goddamed arsenal in her house. And obviously it wasn't locked up because the kid got it and killed mom with it, and then killed a bunch of innocents.
One gun law worked. But unfortunately we don't have any laws that force some scrutiny over these nut cases that pack a house full of weapons.
