I'm confused. You're suggesting the republican-controlled US house of representatives is engaged in some kind of conspiracy to ban firearm ownership, by making it easier to get firearms?
Darker, more cynical: "PTSD costs a lot Taxpayer Dollars, let's make it easier for expensive veterans to shoot themselves in the head"
Except we've had multiple nutjobs go on massive killing sprees in schools, movie theaters, and every open space you can think of, yet so far we have failed to get anything banned.
Interestingly, practically all of those "open spaces" were clearly marked "gun-free zone". Some such nutjobs have been clearly documented as choosing those areas over "more desirable" targets precisely because of the signage. Of the few cases not so designated, many have been stopped by other armed citizens before the intended massive killing spree proceeded past the first couple shots.
