They missed the part where he has a history of mental health issues and had heard voices telling him to kill people. He should have lost access to his guns.

Or you know, we could only give guns to people that really really need them instead of making a hobby out of it

Ehhhh maybe it's my American showing, but I've known lots of hobbyist clay shooters that are responsible, great people. Not to mention that hunting is more than a hobby to many; it's a way of life. I don't think we should police hobbies to that degree. Much moreso, we should have initial and updated background checks on gun owners.

Dude you need a to pass a test and have a license for loads of hobbies, people still do them. Even just driving a regular car which is considered a near necessity in some places, we acknowledge that it's dangerous so you need to pass a test and can have your licence taken away if you are a danger to others.
