In todays instant internet upload world no one has uploaded a video yet from what happened inside the club or outside the club?
That's mostly true of all the suspicious mass shootings of the last decades. Supposedly the covert operators can broadcast some kind of jamming signal during the event, disabling all the I-phone cameras.

It doesn't change the fact that in this case, all the laws in place should have prevented this person from having a gun meaning he broke the law to have one or the laws didn't work.
You can make more laws, but why do you think those will work any better?
We have already established that for a variety of reasons, you are not going to reduce access to guns for those who want them and they do not get them through legal channels in a majority of cases - either flagrantly breaking the law or getting them despite laws that should have prevented them from having one.

That may be because your country has too many guns in circulation and it's beyond finding solutions.

Which law would he have broken? If you put laws into place (let's say, a background check required to purchase a firearm) then financially gut the organization that's performing the background checks (something about government being too big or something) then you really shouldn't bring out the shocked pikachu face when it doesnt actually function as it intends.

If what I'm seeing is correct, it's a combination of things and mental illness is one component meaning that it's not the only component although it is part of the puzzle.
There is commonality with a lot of the shooters. They happen to be young disaffected males. They don't happen to hold to any particular ideology meaning they are just as likely to be left as right as nothing clear at all. The biggest factors are that they are young and socially ill-adjusted, often with poorly addressed mental issues.
They tend to get online where they isolate even more and seek out strange places where they latch on to anything they can and end up radicalizing. At some point, they go off the deep end and we see the consequences.
My overall takeaway is that society in general is hostile to young males, and we're losing them and this is what we see as the outcome.

So , it could then be Surmised that there is a Possibility of a LBGTQ Hate on LBGTQ Hate Crime here and Not the Implied Standard Definition of One by the MSM ?

It's the GOD DAMN FBI that performs EVERY SINGLE firearm transaction in this country. Because it's LAW.

It's an automated process. Otherwise it would be too costly. Its inadequate. It's literally harder to buy certain cars than it is to purchase a firearm. A. Vehicle.

Ahem, it is the government who does background checks.
But I am all for gutting government financially. The bureaucracy is way too large to function efficiently.

The part where you IGNORE ATF form 4473 has to be filled out for EVERY purchase.
It's the form Hunter Biden LIED on which is a FELONY.
