And they also buy them legally then go on to commit murder too. So the issue isn't legal vs illegal, the issue is access.
The Va Tech shooter had no record at time of buy. I hate this crap assuming every shooting is committed with an illegally obtained gun. Most firearm deaths are in the home from suicide, accident and domestic violence.
This isn't just an issue of accessibility. It is also an issue of legal vs illegal. Accessibility isn't mutually exclusive to this problem or this crime. All possible factors should be considered here as I'm sure it will be during the investigation.
Where did I say it was committed with an illegally obtained gun? I was making a comment about how people can get guns, not about whether or not the spree was committed with an illegal gun.
