Louisville Shooter's Manifesto Highlights Ease of Gun Access for Mentally Ill.
TL;DR Summary
The shooter who killed five co-workers at a Louisville, Kentucky, bank this month left notes revealing part of his goal was to show how easy it was in America for someone dealing with a serious mental illness to buy an assault-style weapon. The gunman purchased the AR-15-style rifle seven days before the April 10 shooting and under Kentucky law he was only required to fill out a form for the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and to undergo an FBI records check to ensure he was not a felon or the subject of a court-imposed restraining order.
