Restrictions should be minimal. What we have now is working.
You mean like we have now? What we have now is working. The President is a fink. |

Not sure how. Take out the 3-4 most violent cities and the USA has very low gun violence. And these are the cities with the strongest gun control laws. Sorry but I am not letting rare tragedies be a reason to beg to have my freedom taken away. The President is a fink. |

I guess he selected the ultimate 'admission to bail' that is available to millionaires in the Gray Bar Resort Hotel. Probably took a lot of secrets to his grave and now perhaps civil claimants will emerge from the shadows with rather fanciful claims. |

Are those cities not in the United States? If you are subtracting US cities from the statistics, do I get to add foreign cities? And not to beat a dead horse, but strict gun control laws on paper are ineffective without the ability to enforce them. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts."

The point is skewed perception. I am not going to waste my time with an example because I think we both know how that can happen. Same as if you do not join a street gang your chances of death by shooting plummet.
We have the ability. But it is easier to scream that we need more gun laws after a tragedy than work for a living and do good police work. And sorry but yes, some things cannot be prevented. Best course is situational awareness. The President is a fink. |

Autopsy by RCMP indicated each killer committed suicide by use of a firearm. Couldn't stand the mosquitoes, perhaps. |
