I wonder how many others that have never been reported exist. I'd guess this isn't the only person that didn't get reported as required!

What can you expect when POTUS goes on record saying that it's not guns that kill but those insane whoe still allowed to have access to them without any check whatsoever of their past history. Perhaps it's not yet dawned on POTUS that restricting the sale of high caliber, sophisticated weapons to ALL AMERICANS would have some influence in reducing these rampages.......................but of course this would mean considerable loss of monetary support from the National Rifle Association (NFA) to those members of congress who relay on these funds to further their personal political interests. Hence the shootings will continue, many will die or remain seriously injured for the rest of their lifes, but who cares provided the money continues to roll in...................................????

As the old joke goes: guns don't kill people; Americans kill people.

REF: “...................but never reported to FBI”: On the other hand, the FBI also did not bother to verify, why the looney did not report to the FBI. VERY efficient indeed!
