Not relevant. Individuals with evil intent were able to obtain the firearms they wanted to obtain to carry out their twisted mission regardless of the gun laws in place.
As we saw last week in France, if folks want to kill they'll find a way. Last week, it was accomplished with a truck...which also happened to be full of firearms and explosives regardless of strict French gun laws.
The bottom line is this: if folks truly want to commit acts of violence, a law isn't necessarily going to stop them. Murder is against the law everywhere, but it still happens. Its happening in countries at higher rates in the US regardless of the availability of firearms.
