From the article: “It's unclear this week whether a federal background check would have stopped the purchase.” Regardless of the circumstances of this shooting, the majority of guns used in mass shootings are purchased legally by people that pass a NICS background check. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/crime/2023/12/14/austin-shooting-spree-shooter-shane-james-gun-background-check-active-warrants-family-assault/71910840007/

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1735672127422894559

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
