I disagree. The shooting at the school in CT was done by legally purchased firearms, which is usually the case in mass murders. If there was a law banning firearms from houses where there are people with mental health issues, it's most likely this shooting would not have taken place. If background checks were really background checks - meaning someone went out and talked to the potential gun owner and interviewed them they might have discovered that her son had mental health issues and she would have been denied permission to buy or own a firearm.
