Preventing this guy from owning a gun
is gun control.
In Norway we have quite liberal weapon laws compared to the rest of Europe. You can get a rifle or shotgun by documenting your need to use the weapon for hunting or competition. You can only get handguns if you're using them for competition. If you have no criminal record, it's easy to get a license. It doesn't prevent morons from obtaining guns, but I think it has a healty filtering effect. And it makes people think if they really need a gun. Fully automatic weapons are illegal for civilians as they cannot be used for hunting nor competition.
I don't want to start a big thread on gun control. I've never quite understood the American way, and if you feel guns should be less restricted than alcohol, by all means, go ahead
