Oregon Ducks Head Coach Talks Gun Control After Maine Shootings

Oregon Ducks head coach Dan Lanning ended his Saturday press conference by talking about gun control in light of the shootings allegedly carried out by Robert Card in Maine.

Lanning said his comments were not intended to be “political in any way,” and he said, “This isn’t me taking a stance, but our players told me this spring that gun violence was really important to them, and I just want to ask everybody, what are we doing about it?”

He added, “Don’t think I’m sitting here talking about gun control. Don’t think I’m not talking about mental health. I’m talking about all of it.”

Lanning said, “Where can we support the people that are having problems with mental health in this country. Where can we support making sure that people who shouldn’t have weapons don’t have weapons.”

WATCH — CNN’s Coates: Maine Shooter Picked “Soft Targets” Where He Didn’t Think He’d Get a Response, Didn’t Pick a Gun Range:

Breitbart News reported that Robert Card, the Maine shooting suspect, used a .308 sniper rifle that was “legally” purchased. When law enforcement speaks of “legally” purchasing a gun the reference normally indicates that a background check was passed.

On Saturday, the day after Card’s body was found in a semi-truck trailer, Maine Commissioner of Public Safety Mike Sauschuck indicated Card was never involuntarily committed for mental health issues and was therefore not barred from passing a firearm background check.

He elaborated, as it was common knowledge that Card was taken to a West Point hospital for an evaluation in mid-July 2023, noting that an evaluation is not a disqualifying factor for gun purchases and is not the same thing as being involuntarily committed. Being involuntarily committed disqualifies an individual from gun purchases.

Sauschuck explained, “You can volunteer for treatment for months on end, but if you’re not forcibly committed to seek that treatment — and it’s very specific to treatment,” then it does not qualify as being involuntarily committed.

He added, “In this scenario, I have not seen to this point that Mr. Card was forcibly committed for treatment. And if that didn’t happen, the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check, you go into a firearms dealer who does all their work, and the background check is not going to ping that this individual is prohibited.”

Sauchuck cautioned, “Just because there appears to be a mental health nexus to this scenario, the vast, vast, vast majority of people with a mental health diagnosis will never hurt anybody.”
