jon,

You may be right. On the news last night a reporter said, "This may ignite the debate on gun control and keeping guns out of the hands of mentally disturbed persons." I wished I could have told him to read GCA 1968 and subsequent federal laws already on the books. Further, he should go to a gun shop and read the current BATFE Form 4476 about "Prohibited Persons" who cannot legally buy a gun.

As a retired federal agent, I must say NO law prevents anything. Drug laws have not stopped drug dealers from dealing in every high school and on every street corner in America. Gun Control merely controls honest folks who comply with licensing, registration, Firearms Identity Cards, etc. They have yet to get the bad guys and "nuts" to comply.

Adam

Don't forget Adam, they call us "Gun Enthusiast" But when they say the second word like "In-thoooooooziest" and get a sour look on their faces.

They really mean "Gun Nuts" they are just too chicken to say it.

I get truly angry with those clowns. I know I posted this point dozens of times, but they say the Constitutions Second Amendment is obsolete. But for their Freedom of Speech, and Freedom of the Press, and Religion, well then, "that's okay"

They pick and choose what Amendment suits their weenie needs........Great now I am mad again

I'll state the obvious and say that the media likes to stir it up; I'm sure it helps their ratings. "News" is all about ratings, that's what's important, right?
