"Shall not" is no polite legal suggestion. Fix what's in place.

The dude was an obvious loser with daddy issues on anti-depressants. What's more to dwell on -- That fact the left wants to normalize mental illness and this is just part and parcel of living in a big city???

Has anyone else noticed that they are referring to the gun that was used as a "high powered rifle, similar to the AR-15", and yet not actually calling it an assault rifle? Seems rather odd, given the overwhelming propensity of the media to label virtually everything as an assault rifle.

Cue the Left saying "we need to do more about gun control"
Cue the Media talking about "assault rifles"
Cue the President telling us he banned assault rifles before and he's going to do it again
Cue NOBODY in Media, Left, or Government talking about mental health or how exactly zero laws PREVENT a crime from happening

In order for what you are postulating to be true, my friend and co-worker Paul, who was there with his wife and two daughters, and personally witnessed a body hit the ground, would have to be lying.
I guess you can claim that he's lying. Personally, I don't find that to be any more likely than that the various social media outlets who we all love to criticize for censoring things are doing what they do.
