Hmm, Trump declares a national emergency at the boarder, Dems threaten national emergency for gun issues, this happens.

Good luck with that - the American NSDAP is always giving itself a reach-around.

Illinois workplace shooting leaves 5 dead, shooter killed, officials say

Right on cue...just as Nancy Pelosi starts talking gun control.

John Probst, who works at the company and managed to flee the scene, told WLS-TV that he recognized the gunman, who had "a pistol with a laser," as an employee at the company.
... What will be on the next ban list by the liberals.....Lasers ....

Guy was a prohibited possessor. Felony conviction in 1995 which was caught in a 2014 background check for a concealed carry permit in. He was supposed to surrender the pistol he owned (which was used in these murders) then, but it was never followed up on by police. So once again, failure of the enforcement of existing gun laws results in mass death and the call for more laws that would have done nothing to prevent the murders in the first place.

which was caught in a 2014 background check for a concealed carry permit in.

And yet, he passed the background check for the FOID card and to purchase the .40 Smith&Wesson pistol (According to CNN).
So is it possible that they never actually checked him initially?
Was there some new question asked when the check was for CC vs. just ownership?

In a State with draconian gun Laws (some even WORSE than NY), how did this man manage to get "permission" in the first place?
How would "improved background checks", a frequent rallying cry of the gun-grabbing generation, have stopped this man from acquiring a gun?
Why didn't the authorities follow up when the man was ordered to surrender his property? Surely in 2014 there was a database somewhere pointing out that this man was ordered to surrender a gun, yet hadn't done so.

But it's MY fault because I own a gun?

Aurora shooter's permit was revoked but gun wasn't seized

Seems the government system failed us again. (Convicted felon with firearm.)

Who Will be held accountable for the failure to collect the firearm .. is the better question... Liberals want to pass a law where if your gun is not kept in a secure location... gun safe ... and it is stolen .. used to commit a crime then the gun owner can be charged with a felony.......... Will felony charges be brought against folks in the police department for not securing this gun .... ?
