Predictably, liberal are calling for more gun control laws after UCSB shooting.

So a few days after another crazy person shoots and kills a few people, Liberals are calling for more gun control laws.

So, let's see if the latest attempt to restrict the 2nd Amendment of the Constitution, the bill proposed by Senator Joe Machin (D-WV) and Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) would have prevented the tragedy.

1.) Universal Background Check/Registration -- Liberal want all purchasers of any firearm to pass a background check before being allowed to take possession, even when one person is selling the firearm to another person.  These are called private party sales.  Liberals want these transactions tracked and all firearms registered, since it allows for easier confiscation of the firearm at a later date.  Since the shooter/stabber/crasher purchased 3 handguns from 3 gun stores in Kalifornia, he had to submit to 3 separate 10 day waiting periods, after purchasing the each pistol, but before pick-up.   The shooter PASSED all 3 background checks.

FAIL

2.) High Capacity magazine limits --  Liberals choice an arbitrary number, 10, as a limit to magazine capacity.  The Gun Control proponents argue that bad guys use "high capacity" magazine to spray lots a bullets, very quickly, to cause the maximum amount of carnage.  So by limiting the capacity of the magazine, it will reduce the number of casualties at a mass shooting, since the bad guy is going to have to change magazines more often.  However, since the murderer resides in Kalifornia, he is prevented from purchasing "high capacity" magazine.  The Police only found 10rd magazines in his car, BUT he had 41 - 10rd magazines.

FAIL

3.)  The law was primarily an "Assault Weapons ban", which was to prevent further ownership of certain rifles with cosmetic features that scare liberals, which include collapsible stock, pistol grip, flash suppressor, accepts high capacity magazines, and foregrip. Well, this kid used a pistol, which the Heller SCOTUS Decision determined ownership is a constitutional right and therefore cannot be banned.

FAIL

4.)  Some wording in the bill included language addressing mental illness, but it was not clear how that would restrict/prevent the purchase of a firearm.  The murdered was under the care of a multiple therapists.


Liberals are chomping at the bit, that the mass shooter is a follows a stereotype that they can demonize:

1.)  A conservative or a Tea Party  --  The murderer's father is a movie director.  Some of his recent work included the recent "Hunger Games" sequel.  Basically, a good Hollywood Liberal.

FAIL

2.) An angry white guy --  The murderer's father is a Brit, but his mother is Ethnic Chinese Malaysian.

FAIL

3.)  From a poor family --  Again, Hollywood Director Father.  The murderer was driving around in a $40K BMW.

FAIL

4.) Misogynist --  Before he went on his shooting spree, the murdered stabbed his 3 - roommates.  He also shot a male customer of the market, and ran over a male bicyclist.
