The Obama-era regulation, which was enacted after the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School, would have required the Social Security Administration to send records of beneficiaries with severe mental disabilities to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System. The measure would have affected about 75,000 people found mentally incapable of managing their financial affairs.

They meticulously planned the slaughters that they brought about, one drove hundreds of miles to insure that he would kill the type of people that he wanted to kill.

Those racist monsters are not mentally ill, please stop giving them that out.
