This football player almost assuredly purchased this gun legally with a background check already. One gun was enough to commit this crime.

So was this premeditated or an act of passion? Either way, without the gun he would’ve found another weapon to commit the deed. OJ Simpson didn’t need a gun. Wait, what am I saying? He was innocent! /sarc

In all seriousness, we can’t prevent murder with gun controls or gun bans. What can be done is to limit the scope of the harm caused by psychos. In other words, we can reduce the body counts of mass shootings by deny access to the tools that make high body counts possible. But individual murders, especially murder/suicides, can’t be prevented with anything short of “Minority Report” style predictions.
