The problem with gun rights arguments is that neither side can quit screaming and pissing long enough to find a reasonable middle ground.

Yeah I think a problem most Europeans have with the issue is the failure to understand that you are coming from a different starting point.Comment

I can't believe what i'm about to say...
The person I think I agree with most in this thread is...LoungeMachine. Just go back and read his posts.
First of all, it's Saturday morning and I still got a knot in my stomach. i can't even put my feelings into words.
I believe in 2nd amendment rights to keep and bear arms, but I also believe in responsible gun control.
Banning all weapons will not work and will not ever happen in this country. Guns didn't kill these people. Guns are a tool. A sick, psychotic, EVIL person killed these people.
Nick posted regs in New York State and Blaze posted a graphic that made somewhat sense. Go read them again.
I find it amazing that I had to take a day long (8.5 hrs) course in Hunter Education just so I could go hunting and also get my Concealed Carry Permit, yet to buy a gun nothing of the sort is required.
Firearms can be a fantastic tool for sporting events (hunting and target shooting sports), though I don't recommend a person buy one strictly for self defense. Too many people that aren't proficient with a weapon under those circumstances get hurt.
Somehow, some way, better screening needs to be done in order for people to buy a weapon. This fuck was sick in the head yet he used weapons owned by his mom that weren't even locked up in a gun safe.

Sounds like the dead mother may have some degree of responsibility in this case...
NEWTOWN, Conn. -- The mother of the suspected Sandy Hook Elementary School gunman, herself slain at the outset of the murderous rampage, was an avid gun enthusiast who liked to take her sons to the shooting range to practice their marksmanship, a friend tells NBC News.
Dan Holmes, a local landscaper and a friend of Nancy Lanza, mother of 20-year-old suspected gunman Adam Lanza, said she also was a collector.
“She had a pretty extensive gun collection,” Holmes said. “She was a collector, she was pretty proud of that. She always mentioned that she really loved the act of shooting.”
Holmes recalled that she said she was able to “focus in” while shooting.
Federal officials tell NBC News that Adam Lanza took three weapons with him to the school – two pistols, a Glock and a Sig Sauer, and a Bushmaster .223-caliber semi-automatic assault-style rifle – all of which were registered to Nancy Lanza.
It is unclear whether all the guns were used in the attack. At a news briefing on Saturday, Chief Medical Examiner Dr. H. Wayne Carver II, who led the team that autopsied the victims, said, “All the (injuries) … I know of were caused by the rifle.”
The Associated Press reported that authorities investigating the school shooting later recovered additional weapons -- a Henry repeating rifle, an Enfield rifle and a shotgun. It was not clear where those weapons were found.
Holmes, Nancy Lanza’s friend, said the 47-year-old single mother also frequently talked about how she was worried about Adam.
Investigators and former classmates of Connecticut school shooter Adam Lanza say he was bright, but extremely shy and remote.
She talked about “how he was an unstable kid,” he said. “She would talk about that. “She was very protective of him. I don’t … think she ever got major help for him. She just tried to handle it on her own. It was something she was definitely disturbed about.”

Unfortunately for Mrs Lanza, she sounds like your typical gun nut.... completely unconcerned with whether a complete psycho could get his hands on weapons. In this case, hers. Which he then used on her, and 26 others, mostly children.

It has everything to do with those jackbooted terrorist thugs. They are the ones who brainwashed this woman into thinking having a home full of guns would keep her safe. Naturally, nobody in that terrorist lobby ever thought to mention that she should keep the guns safe. Especially from her own psycho offspring.
Well, mother and son will have all eternity to discuss these things, as my guests.Eternally Under the Authority of Satan
