If he didn't say that, folks would say he didn't care.

The answer isn't more guns, nor is it taking all the guns away.

We do need gun control. These were legal purchases. Nobody needs to own these type of guns

They did back ground checks. So what would have prevented them buying. Maybe you are suggesting profile of minorities and forigners.

As for the weapons they had. Please explain why type is acceptable and which is not

We'll have a couple weeks of political posturing by our "leaders". Then like every time before, the anger will subside and nothing will be done. Replay this scenario in a couple weeks or months when the next mass shooting happens.

Rifles are not needed in the home of individuals. Without good cause the sell of rifles, shotguns, etc should be illegal

I don't agree with that. I think non-semi auto rifles and shotguns are ok and should be allowed. They are the most commonly used guns for hunting.
