The facts really are clear, here.
reports that before the 1999 shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado, mass shootings took place roughly every six months. Between Columbine and Charleston, the pace was roughly one every 2½ months. After Charleston? One almost every six weeks.
It’s their ability to have a gun in their hand so readily. Imagine if these shooters didn’t have access to guns. Or even if they had a harder time getting them, like having to pass a background check, or endure a waiting period, or take gun safety training, or be told that due to their white supremacist views they’d plastered all over social media, they were denied gun ownership until they took racial sensitivity training and proved themselves to be mentally fit for such a responsibility.
Another fact that many pro-gun Americans do not want to accept is that background checks MAKE AMERICA SAFER. In states with a solid background check system, more than 3.5 million illegal gun sales have been blocked in the past 20 years. Unfortunately, half of all Americans still live in states where a convicted felon, domestic abuser or fugitive can skip a background check by finding an unlicensed seller at a gun show or online.
