The person who committed the crime murdered the owner of the rifle that was used.. So the gun was illegally obtained and there was a shotgun in his trunk, capable of much more devastation in a small area.. That was also illegally obtained.
The high school massacres were preventable without law enforcement being there. Stop sidetracking to terrorism.
A ban on weapons in the US would lead to much more death. You cannot simply disarm a very armed populace. You have never been to the US other that tourist spots have you?
That's the only way they can cause more damage. Otherwise they're shooting just as many bullets. The distinction as applied by the law was rather pointless.
The gun was obtained legaly by the mother. If she couldn't have bought it then things would be different.
To be fair... It is allowable. It would just take an amendment to the constitution. It can't simply be a law passed.
Yes he would have used the shotgun in the trunk... If you want to ban one gun You want to ban them all, this is over.
No objection. If the laws over there stay the same and for the current situations then it is probably the best option. I just feel that there are better ways forward in the future
I remember reading about that, but that part of the law was also pretty pointless since you could still buy ones made before the law was passed. Manufacturers also learned their lesson, they have made so many magazines since the law expired in 2004 that they will always be available in the slim chance that a similar law would pass again.
Please don't assume i don't know anything about guns. I have been brought up around them all my life and shot quite a range of pistols/rifles ( all at legally run gun clubs) My family has shot competitevly(sp) at a few common wealth games so i am pretty fine with guns in general and don't think a blanket ban is realistic or warranted just something needs to be done law wise.
