This is mental. This is not about healthy human beings serving the country with arms to bear, or even the right of this Constitution for bearing arms. It is a right to use arms with proper purpose to defend one\u2019s safety. We must not allow mental illness to take away our right to bear arms. This is about trusting the Constitution, our rights, our reason.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re living now in a world that has no remorse for wrongdoings because we are being led by the worst in office,\u201d he continued. \u201cWe must identify every individual for their credentials, for their mental capacity to bear arms. There should be proper qualifications for gun ownership and proper testing. One should only own a gun if they are qualified and schooled.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Voight\u2019s remarks completely miss the fact that the shooter was able to legally obtain two firearms by completing ATF Form 4473. Those who have been committed to a psychiatric facility, have violent criminal records, or are a convicted felon are prohibited from owning firearms and the background check will flag those records.<\/p>\n<p>There were certainly indications that the shooter had a history of violence that included <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/05\/28\/texas-shooter-salvador-ramos-threatened-to-rape-teens-on-yubo\/\">making threats<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thedailybeast.com\/uvalde-shooting-classmate-of-salvador-ramos-jamie-arellano-says-we-saw-him-beating-a-little-dog\">hurting animals<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/new-disturbing-details-emerge-about-shooter-who-attacked-texas-elementary-school\">attacking people<\/a>.
