Just how big of a moron do you have to be to go through the trouble of registering at a gun range to off yourself? This story gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “get a room”.
The last time I went to a gun range, it took about five minutes to 'register'. Not a big deal.
She didn’t register a gun she rented a gun.
A friend of mine who owned a gun shop and had a range next to it closed the range after a HIV positive “guy” did the same thing. The family of the “guy” blamed him.
Cases like this are far more rare than suicides by train, but I haven't heard anyone suggesting that we should ban trains. In fact, the Greenies want us to build more railroads. Maybe we should bring this up every time the gun control advocates use a shooting to push for more gun laws.
This is a very reasonable thing to do if "registration" (filling a simple form) takes a few minutes, but buying a handgun requires filling ten times as much paperwork plus waiting two weeks to get the gun.
In CA, for example (don't know about FL) you also need to pass a handgun safety test. The safety test might be hard to do right if she never saw a handgun, and the fact that she didn't own one strongly suggests that.
