The killer was a vet with PTSD!
What's Obama going to do? Deny all firearms to vets with PTS-. . . . . oh.

The online purchase loophole is a myth. You cannot order a firearm online without having it sent directly to an FFL dealer, where you then have to submit to a background check in order to take possession of said firearm. The only exception is if you are purchasing from an individual in certain states that allow long guns to be shipped in state to an individual. In which case is a person to person transaction that does not require a background check anyway.
The gun show loophole is also a half truth, if you purchase a firearm from an individual at a gun show that is selling their own personal firearm (varies by state) you do not have to submit to a background check, but if you are purchasing from a dealer you do have to submit to a background check.edit on 9/17/2013 by SpaDe_ because: (no reason given)

Instead of making an ass out of yourself in every thread stop before you start typing and think before you spew non sense it's getting old, I know your new here well at least with this screen name I'm sure you have been banned a few time before, at least that is what it seems to me.
The suspect never asked for help and if he was hell bent on killing he would have done so one way or another.

OK, you think Obama himself is going to review every application for a gun? You sound um....unstable and like you should not get to have a gun. Your paranoid and factless rant scares me more.

Good morning Flyer,
This was my thought process yesterday when this incident happen.
- Oh no! People have been killed today
- Military base eh? That's interesting
- Possibly 3 armed suspects?
- This will probably bring the gun debate and mental health issues to the forefront...again.
And, it appears my presumption at the end is proving correct. I have read at least 8 articles that have highlighted the gun control, violent video games and mental health issues.
The administrations attempts to take advantage of tragedies is sooooo predicable.

He asked for help with his insomnia when asked if he wanted to hurt himself or others he said no.
All it takes is a little time to search and you wont look like an idiot.

The information that I provided is factual unless I stated it as an opinion, which would obviously be an opinion. However I NEVER said Obama himself would review -any- application for a gun. When I talk about the Obama Administration I am talking about the whole gang of crooks, not just Obama. This involves anyone that indirectly works underneath his regime, particularly the ones that work for his businesses like Obamacare, his private army etc...

He went to the police for the voice claim and last I checked they are not health care providers.

Aaron Alexis was a veteran but did not have PTSD from his service time as he never served in combat or had any other service cause.
