If there aren't laws that make the original owner of a firearm liable for any crimes committed with it due to the owner's negligence then there really ought to be.
Involuntary manslaughter sounds about right.
What facts?The facts do not support this conclusion.
There is a difference between mental illness and insanity.But they're not.

What facts?
Although many Americans believe that people with mental disorders pose a danger to themselves or others, the science reveals a more nuanced picture.
Suicide risk is indeed elevated among people with certain mental illnesses (e.g., schizophrenia, depression, borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, and anxiety disorders), but suicide among those with such diagnoses is still rare.
Similarly, homicide risk is elevated among people with certain mental conditions (e.g., schizophrenia) and people with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, but these individuals still account for a minority of homicides and acts of mass violence in the United States.
On the other hand, people with mental health conditions appear to be at increased risk for being victims of interpersonal violence.
Again, very broad. I didn't say homocides, I didn't say mass murder, I said school shootings. Many shootings, including mass shootings are linked to general crime, it's very different to just trying to kill kids.The consistent data showing that mental illness is not a significant factor in homicides. I've already posted some, remember? Here's some more:

I have the same evidence you have... none.Again, there is no evidence that mental illness is a significant factor in school shootings. All you're doing is making assertions, I haven't seen a scrap of evidence-based support for your claims.

The Senate on Thursday passed a bipartisan gun safety bill that could become the most significant federal gun legislation in decades if signed into law.
Driving the news: The Senate approved the measure in a 65-33 vote, with 15 Republicans joining Democrats to vote in favor.
The big picture: The bill, called the "Bipartisan Safer Communities Act," includes enhanced background checks and clarification on the "boyfriend loophole," which prevents domestic abusers from purchasing guns, unmarried or not, Axios' Alayna Treene and Jacob Knutson report.
- The House has signaled that it will take up the legislation swiftly and send it to President Biden's desk.
State of play: Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who voted to pass the bill, was crucial in shoring up Republican support to break the 60-vote filibuster.
- It also includes increased funding for mental health and school safety and incentives for states to implement "red flag" laws.
- A bipartisan group of senators drafted the legislation in response to multiple mass shootings last month, including one at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas that killed 19 children and two teachers and another that killed 10 at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York.
- The bill was hung up last week as the "core four" senators involved in drafting the bill struggled to strike a compromise over the red flag provision and the "boyfriend loophole."
