Original Note:
The Maine shooter was a firearm instructor and in the national guard. There are no background checks or red flag laws in Maine that would have prohibited Robert Card from owning a firearm after he was committed in a mental institution. Trump Jr is spreading misinformation. https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/verify/maine-mass-shooting-red-flag-laws-verify/65-55e5d1a2-5fe6-4474-8706-0922e8e4e1db https://legislature.maine.gov/statutes/34-B/title34-Bsec3862-A.html
