Kim Kardashian called for stricter gun control after Omar Mateen opened fire on a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend.
On Twitter, the 35-year-old reality star said it is too easy “for dangerous people to get guns and kill.”
Under current federal law people on terror watch lists can legally buy guns – this is called the Terror Gap

We have repeatedly called on Congress to close this loophole that makes it easy for dangerous people to get guns & kill.

@NeWyatt @ANDRESOHYES @KimKardashian Guns don't kill people, people kill people, if not an assault rifle it would have been something else.

@KimKardashian gun laws only impact law abiding citizens. people who shoot other people are not law abiding.

@KimKardashian Because of all the people like you that believe that shooting was about gun laws. Do some homework,dig deeper.
