Yet Another One Of These

I don't have much energy for this one today, another school shooting, this one with 17 kids dead, the suspect was an expelled former student that the other kids were afraid of, and Florida law made sure he could buy the AR-15 he used to slaughter no problem.  He was expelled for getting into a fight with his ex's new boyfriend, so hey, there's the whole domestic violence issue too.

The portrait that emerged of the suspected gunman in the mass shooting was of a troubled former student at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School who was expelled for disciplinary problems. 
Cruz was arrested without any serious incident at a nearby house very shortly after the shootings, which left 17 people dead and several more injured, Sheriff Scott Israel said. 
The AR-15 used in the mass shooting was legally bought by Cruz, attorney Jim Lewis told the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Cruz already owned the gun when he moved in with his friend’s family in northwest Broward around Thanksgiving, Lewis said. 
“It was his gun,” Lewis said. “The family made him keep it in a locked gun cabinet in the house but he had a key.”

Oh well what can you do right?

85-90% of Americans want universal background checks, NRA pays millions every year to make sure that will never happen.

You can get rid of all the Republicans in November.

That's a start.
