When it’s easier to buy a military-grade rifle than to buy Sudafed
By 
One of the highest-priority issues for the Republican Party is that impulsive and potentially violent people have immediate access to the assault weapon of their choice:
The gunman who killed two doctors and two others at an Oklahoma medical building Wednesday did so after he blamed one of the physicians for causing him pain from a May back surgery, a police chief said Thursday.Shooter Michael Louis, who police said killed himself after the rampage in Tulsa, had just earlier that afternoon legally purchased one of the firearms used in the slaughter, an AR-15 style rifle, city Police Chief Wendell Franklin said during a news conference.Louis entered a physicians’ office building at Tulsa’s Saint Francis Hospital campus late Wednesday afternoon and shot dead his erstwhile surgeon, Dr. Preston Phillips, and three other people before fatally shooting himself, said Franklin. The other three victims at the Natalie Medical Building were Dr. Stephanie Husen, receptionist Amanda Glenn and patient William Love, authorities said.
American carnage, one might say, and American conservatives devote conventions and Facebook ads to celebrating it.
