...A law enforcement source
with knowledge of the investigation told CNN on Saturday that the gunman
had suffered mental health issues. A few years ago, he was hospitalized
for treatment after allegedly talking about harming someone, according
to the official.
It's not clear whether
the state government or his family committed him for treatment or
whether he committed himself. It's also unclear under what circumstances
he was released....--Cramer quoting CNN
Cramer goes on:
California has had an assault weapon ban since 1989 (the year the shooter was born) and on transfers of high-capacity magazines since 2000 (when the shooter was eleven years old). It has required all firearms transfers to be done through a background check
since 1991 (when the shooter was two) and it appears that the shooter
had been committed at some point -- which is one of the things the
California background check includes.
So what we really need is more gun laws!!
