Louisville Gunman's Manifesto Sparks Calls for Gun Reform and Destruction of Weapon.
TL;DR Summary
The family of a man who killed five people at a Louisville bank is fighting against a Kentucky state law that mandates firearms confiscated by law enforcement be auctioned off. The family is working to destroy the AR-15 rifle used in the shooting and is urging the Kentucky state legislature to change the law. The gunman left two notes before the shooting, revealing that part of his goal was to show how easy it was in America for someone dealing with a serious mental illness to buy an assault-style weapon. The family said they were working "vigorously" to see the rifle destroyed.
