probably none. There are people out there like this guy that won't be deterred by any law or punishment.
But like I said the last time you asked this on the first few pages of this thread: I'm for stricter background checks/regulations.
I earned it. You can too but refuse for some dumb reason.

Dude had a pending felony case, didn't he?
Nope. They are not treated equally under the law, so the culpability is not the same.
If more people ran down folks Death Race 2000 style and there was really no other use for them you might have a point.
He did. So, if he bought it from a gun store, then they either didn't perform a background check or sold it to him knowing he has a pending felony.
Or the background check failed to show his pending felony. All of this will come out, really curious to see where the up happened.
Charleston Church Gunman Dylann Roof Bought Pistol Locally: Officials
by MARK POTTER and PETE WILLIAMS
Dylann Roof bought the semiautomatic handgun he used in last week's church shooting at a gun store 25 miles from his home, according to officials familiar with the sale.
Law enforcement officials say the transaction was entirely legal, despite a pending drug charge.
The officials say Roof bought a 45-caliber Glock handgun on April 11, eight days after he turned 21, at Shooter's Choice in West Columbia, South Carolina.
"We do not give out customer information," said a man who identified himself as the gun store manager but declined to reveal his name.
Roof's friends have told NBC News he used money given to him by his parents as a birthday present.
Roof had been arrested in late February at a Columbia shopping mall and charged with possessing Suboxone, a controlled substance commonly used to treat heroin addiction. He was indicted by a Lexington County grand jury on a state drug charge, a case that is currently pending.
Federal law prohibits the sale of a gun to anyone who is "under indictment for" a felony, but the drug charge Roof faces is a misdemeanor under South Carolina law. For that reason, according to several current and former law enforcement officials, the pending charge did not disqualify Roof from buying a gun.
A separate provision of federal law prohibits the sale of a gun to anyone who is "an unlawful user" of any controlled substance. A provision of the Code of Federal Regulations, which defines that term in the gun law, says habitual use can be inferred from evidence of recent use, examples of which, it says, include "a conviction for use or possession of a controlled substance within the past year," or "multiple arrests for such offenses within the past 5 years."
Current and former ATF officials say a single misdemeanor arrest for possession of a controlled substance would not be disqualifying. The federal courts, these officials say, have tended to be strict in interpreting "unlawful user," and as a consequence, this provision is not often enforced.
For all these reasons, law enforcement officials say, the sale of the gun to Dylann Roof was legal.
^interesting. I'd read the drug charge was a felony.
Or the "background check" is a meaningless process which does not involve digging into the actual background that would reveal a potential mass murderer. See my previous post. The issue is not someone failing to put him through a "background check". The issue is that a "background check" is useless if they're not "checking" for potential mass murderers. Dude had a Facebook page and friends who he got drunk with and espoused "race war" goals. But the "background check" is to put a name into a computer system and a yes/no outcome based on previous crimes. It should be much more rigorous, yet the NRA fights that every step of the way.
Minority Report background check machine.
Yeah. When it comes to death machines, the default action shouldn't be "yes". It should be "no unless proven otherwise". Else, we have mass shootings.
Umm, you know, actually run a background check? See if the buyer has malicious intentions? Talk to his/her friends and family? See if they're looking to do mass murder?
A dude who espouses wanting to create a "race war" should be denied. Would you want to live in a neighborhood with m>s armed to the teeth? I know for sure I wouldn't.
People who drink alcohol, do drugs, or like to drive fast or too slow should be excluded from getting drivers licenses too. Don't forget the ones who are taking prescription mood altering drugs. Big Brother should take care of us!
What does any of that have to do with the price of tea?
Are you pro-mass-murder?
No.
We have plenty of murder laws and consequences on the books already. Dead is dead whether it's from a gun, knife, ball pen hammer, fists, or a car.
should we have background checks before I can buy a ball peen hammer?
I guarantee you when I was in my prime I could have killed 9 church goers with a ball pen hammer if I had been so inclined.
off cuck, good ghing it's my right to live where I want and exercise all of my rights freely
Yeah, pretty sure dude couldn't have killed 9 people with a knife or a hammer without being ambushed. Guns are designed to kill, and kill quickly. A knife or hammer is much dirtier and the killer would certainly lose interest or become disgusted if it wasn't so easy to just pull a trigger.
You're a huge got. Look out on July 3, you're going to be gone. Certainly.
How's that race war going, got? Mark July 3 on your calendar. You're done.
29 people got stabbed to death in an attack in China last year:

Also in China, back in 2010, five school kids got severely injured by a man weilding a hammer, following a string of mass stabbings in schools:

July 3rd will be the death of this site if a cuck like you is being put in charge of it. Out with free speech, in with safe spaces and trigger warnings for SJWs like yourself.

What happens then, some cuck law supposed to pass? I haven't been following the traitors recently
Ohh he's saying he's gonna buy the site and ban me. Good this place.
Serious question, if that guy had a semi automatic, how many more people could he have hypothetically killed?
you won't leave
