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...
