I question your knowledge of guns and the sport of shooting. Ignorant people shouldn't advocate for radical changes to activities which they know next to nothing about.

He wasn't likely insane when he purchased the guns.

In fact, I don't think the shooter was insane at all.

I believe he knew what he was doing.

He is sane enough to know not to talk to the cops, and ask for an attorney.

Why should the general populace care what you "question"?

They have already decided what they need, what will be best for their situation, whatever it is.

Why should they worry about what an outside ignoramous such as yourself, fears about them?

This forum is for opinions. Personal attacks cause your argument, such as it is, to lose credibility.

So everyone should be armed at all times in public in order to protect themselves from the insane?

Standard emotional kneejerk reaction from a liberal everytime someone goes batcrazy.

Because legislation is the cure to all human shortcomings and frailties.

How many innocent lives have to be lost to insane people with firearms before we do something?
