Reply to comment by kinglouie493 in Affidavit: Man armed with AR-15-style rifle shoots 2 at Orlando resorts overnight by TupperwareConspiracy

True enough, but how would we know this about someone until they do it?

Why is it I always get downvotes instead of suggestions on this topic?

Not saying we should, but it's been very apparent that all of these shooters had prior red flags that were ignored. When the investigation into this guy gets going, how many friends or family members are gonna be saying they saw this coming?

So, aside from saying "just enforce the laws", how do we get the laws enforced?

Isn’t that the goal of red flag laws?

Red flags are known issues, though. Domestic violence, for example.

They aren't (supposed to be) prejudicial.
