So scrap the gun buy-back. That still leaves screenings, registrations, mandatory trainings. And that's just what a civilian non-gun-owner can come up with off the top of her head. Are you really saying that there's not one single thing the US could do better?

What you are doing is putting qualifiers on an inalienable Right, by doing that you have now changed a Right to a privilege. Natural / inalienable Rights are free from qualifiers, it is either a Right or it isn't.

Not the kind of kid that I would let access firearms. Would you?
Nothing in that article says he was volatile, or dangerous? Do you think people shouldn't own guns if they have a kid that avoids eye contact, is an A/V nerd, or has a high tolerance for pain?
Avoiding eye contact along with high pain thresholds are classic indicators of a mental illness.

So is being an A/V nerd but I doubt most people would get rid of their guns if they had a kid that was shy, an A/V nerd, or had a high pain tolerance.

If he didn't have the AR henmust have did all the damage with the Sig and the glock, those are black. I know glock only comes in black and don't think I've seen any other color on a Sig.
By the way, Joe Scarbourgh said this AM that nobody uses a Glock 10mm for defense.(guess I'll have to get rid of mine now, damn him) I also know that I shouldn't be watching the right wing tripe in the morning.
Clip/magazine, you made me giggle.

It was a shotgun that was found in the trunk.
I wonder how things would have been different if he had been armed with a 6 round shotgun instead? He would have had to reload 6-7 times with the shotgun and there might have been a chance to stop him or for kids to escape, but if he would have used buckshot I'd think he could have killed multiple people with each shot.
According to the Jay Carney the President would support closing the "gun show loophole" but I don't think I've ever heard that the loophole was a problem, and if you close the "gun show loophole" won't you have to also stop private sales without background checks?

^ Stopping private sales? Wouldn't that make all guns being registered mandatory? Wouldn't that be a big old can of worms.
