[quote=bigrun;876778]Fine, but you didn't buy all of them in one month i'm guessing...The reason VA passed one gun a month long ago was because many of VA purchased guns were showing up in crimes in NY...think they used to call I95 the gun freeway...



One gun a month not enough for those who follow the law?

that's exactly right. so why the hand-wringing and suggestions for tougher laws? exactly who will be affected? not the ones they're trying to stop, that's for sure.
this has more to do with people wanting to be able to control everyone, and everything, and leave absolutely nothing to chance. good luck with that. tragedies will still occur. and just like all the others, they'll be senseless and leave people wondering why.
if people truly want to see something change, perhaps people should encourage those with loony relatives to call someone. the guys mother didn't sound surprised to know he did something. why did she choose to do nothing?

there are people who need help; making it a joke is just a sign that mental illness still isn't taken seriously. but then, your post before this one was beyond crass, so i'm not surprised.

How is limiting one gun a month a tough law?

Watching ABC eve news..Interviewed police chief, his daughter was at the Batman movie but a different theater...They showed clips of Holmes as a teenager giving a talk, certain scenes to me, he looks a little like Mark Zuckerberg. or maybe not..
Also mentioned that gun shops out number McDonalds 9-1.

it's not. again, people like me would follow it. those bent on killing would not. i'm not sure what exactly you think that would accomplish anyway?
and yes, to answer an earlier question-we have aquired more than one gun in a month before. when tony's grandfather passed, we received all his guns. and another time we won one, and bought another, at a wildlife banquet/auction.
the ownership of guns doesn't make one a criminal, or mean someone may be in future. gun laws affect the law-abiding, not the criminals. most of us would still not be murderers if there was no law against it. same as stealing. it provides punishments for those who will do so. gun laws aren't the same thing at all.

basically, gun opponents know they don't have a way to get tougher laws passed, so when the occasional nutjob comes along, out they come.
had there been laws against large capacity magazines, he'd have bought more weapons. it wouldn't have changed a thing. nor would making stricter laws mean that lunatics would suddenly be sane.

had he been banned from buying, this tragedy would still have happened, it just wouldn't have been by using guns.

Well it might help prevent someone with the proper credentials from buying couple thousand guns and selling them to the highest bidder in states like NY..

Not talking about the loon fringe just the 'honest' folks out to make a buck...or two...
