wow.
The man who opened fire & shot 5 ppl on a Kentucky highway today was out on bail after being arrested last month for making terrorist threats. Police scanners say he purchased an AR-15 & 2,000 rounds of ammo THIS MORNING

@grrlscientist It should be much harder to purchase ammunition. And it is infuriating to know that we used to. https://www.thetrace.org/2023/01/bullet-ammunition-regulation-guns/
@Siriusfarm @grrlscientist
You don’t need to run a background check on every purchase if people have a license that they can lose if they are on bail or have a protection order against them. Getting bail should require suspension of your ability to buy a gun or ammo — it means you stay in jail if you don’t meet certain requirements.
@grrlscientist so infuriating that this can happen over and over again
