Reduce the national gun load from 300 million to 100 million (and hey, if you can't hold off an authoritarian government that stomps on the constitution like say TrumpCo with 100 million guns then you're all pussies).
Require the same legalities as owning, operating and transferring a vehicle.

So I guess a law against stupidity is out of the qwuestion?

How about more stupid people with more assault weapons?
I know, it's liberal Hollywood's fault.

The guy apparently had a rifle, but he was apparently arrested for burglary.
I suppose they are testing the rifle
If he is the killer then at least he's off the "parks"

I bet that’s the f*#king guy. Living in the woods, breaking into buildings to steal food, taking random potshots at people.

The report mentioned buckshot and he was found with a rifle....Hmmm...
One incident involved buckshot, the guy that died was shot with a rifle.

I heard they're doing the ballistics testing/comparisons. Would be a big relief if this is the guy and they've got him now...

Huh maybe different tests one quick but could be inconclusive one more thorough but takes longer? Maybe there are multiple shootings and they have to test the rifle and the shotgun. Maybe the shotgun testb takes longer. Or maybe that's just the answer the lab they sent it to gave them.

Shotguns are 'smooth bore' with many pellets in the usual load, which makes testing worthless . But if it fired a slug, the tests could reveal a match, but that would be rare due to lack of barrel rifling. Not many slug users out west.
