Maine Mass Shooting Doesn\u2019t Justify More Gun Control. Here\u2019s Why.<\/a><\/p>\n

On Wednesday night, there was\u00a0a mass shooting<\/a>\u00a0in Lewiston, Maine, that has left at least 22 people dead, and many more injured at various locations. The suspect in the shooting, Robert Card, remains at large, and a manhunt is underway. According to reports, the suspect went to multiple locations, including a bar and a bowling alley.<\/p>\n

Naturally, Democrats were quick to jump in with calls for more gun control. But make no mistake about it, this incident doesn\u2019t prove the need for more gun control at all. It actually proves that existing gun control measures aren\u2019t being enforced. How so? Well, according to information released to the public so far, we know that the suspect has severe mental health problems and was previously known to law enforcement.<\/p>\n

According to a Maine law enforcement bulletin, Card \u201crecently reported mental health issues including hearing voices and threats to shoot up the National Guard base in Saco.\u201d Card was also reported to have been committed to a mental health facility for two weeks this past summer.<\/p>\n
