What was in the Gilroy, Dayton and El Paso shooters’ backgrounds that would’ve prevented them from getting the guns they used?

And later in his Tweet he said they should combine it with immigration reform.
Quit being bitches, and realize he’s playing politics.

There are already overly restrictive background checks in place. As far as I know, both shooters bought their guns legally and probably passed said checks.

Trump’s problem is he listens to that moron daughter of his,
that liberal twit should be banned from the Whitehouse.

The only mass shooting that the government could have prevented occurred at the Sutherland Baptist Church shooting in Texas. The killer was in trouble with the law when he was in the military, but through sloppy record keeping, that was not put on his record. As a result of that government failure, he was able to buy guns that killed 26 worshipers. So much for relying on government to protect you.

Trump in other words is speaking of tyranny?

Obama was better for the second amendment than Trump.

Um, Trump is tying Immigration Reform to any 'Background Check' legislation.
The Dems will never go for that.

They want psych exams. Just like anyone who doesn’t believe the government narrative is a ‘conspiracy theorist’. This is what the Red Flag laws are for.
