-Buffalo: Multiple warnings signs that should have triggered NY red flag laws but didn't due to incompetent state govt bureaucracy.
-Uvalde: Incompetent local law enforcement, starting with before the shooter even entered the school (officer had the shooter in his sites from 140+ yds but didn't shoot).
-Highland Park: Multiple warnings signs that should have triggered IL red flag laws but didn't due to incompetent state govt bureaucracy. Police called multiple times to house, he threatened to kill his family, police confiscated knives/sword/machete, but still didn't trigger IL red flag laws and was allowed to purchase firearms.

We don't need more gun control laws. We just need to get incompetence out of some local law enforcement, and get incompetent bureaucracy out of govt.
No, wrong. A couple more gun control laws ought to do it. :coffee:

if you insist on living in a dangerous neighborhood, you should probably arm up unless you're pretty tough.

That apparently was the officer who's wife was shot (and eventually died enroute to the hospital), and he was getting a text from her right before he was stopped by other officers from attempting to go into the classroom...
