Both the Florida kid and the church shooter should not have been able to purchase a firearm. If you get down to it, the Orlando shooter, with his history, should not have as well. While I have a very hard time laying any blame at her feet, if the women he used to abuse had actually gone to the police, instead of just leaving him, he could have had a DV conviction and been a prohibited person as well. There are so many checks and balances in the system and they fail due to human error. The answer isn't going to be more regulations when the regulations you have in place aren't even being enforced
None of the regulations in place would stop any violent criminal from buying a ar-15 as long as private sales are not regulated.
Very disingenuous to claim that more regulation is not needed or that criminal record will stop anyone from buying any weapon they want from a private seller.
