NRA wouldnt have it any way. They want guns in the hands of everyone, including criminals.

Marion County does it again. Passes blame instead of actually doing work. “Shortcomings = incompetence “

No , the laws existed, It was a leadership failure, all you did was get people killed and gave the hysterical ant 2A people more excuses for more laws.

God said he could have a gun. The rest is on those who believe it was his god given right to possess the gun. Get shot, and you die defending God.

Largely Christian America forgot ' those who live by the sword for by the sword'.

Those who sold the guns must be prosecuted

FBI blew it, yet again 🙄

Prosecutor: FedEx shooter didn't have 'red flag' hearingThe man who fatally shot eight people at a FedEx facility never appeared before a judge for a hearing under Indiana’s “red flag” law, even after his mother warned that her son might commit “suicide by cop,” a prosecutor says. We have lazy incompetent negligent bureaucratic hacks that don’t do a thing except collect a paycheck and count the days till they get their pension. Lot of good the f-g 'red flag law' did.Didn't try to execute law, and the shooter still went out and bought 2 more guns. Sickening! The families of the victims should sue the state. Unbelievable incompetence from that police department. Even the family of the shooter should sue
