Would you mind giving the name of the city, so I can look up the stats for my self? Because, I don't believe you.

ok mint, let me ask you this.

lets say all these are put into place and every law abiding citizen follows through with registration and the like.

if any mass gun murders took place after that, would you then admit that you are wrong and that less gun control might be a better thing to do than restrict, register, confiscate firearms?

All this killing from guns? Seems like we have gun killing problem.

10 rounds a second? ROFLMAO! Can you pull your index finger 10 times a second??? You and people that are as ignorant have ZERO credibility when discussing firearms! You should realize that. Firearms don't just fire by themselves! How many firearms DIDN'T kill somebody today? And nothing that your President proposes or has plans to implement would have prevented this or any other crime! You and people like you only want to do things that would affect law-abiding people! Your arguments are laughable BS!

Nevertheless he didn't kill 5 people in quick succession with a bat, or a knife, because it would have been far more difficult to do so. He did it with a gun that can shoot 10 rounds a second (or something like that.) So don't tell me that a gun isn't part of the problem here.

Good facts...we have a severe social problem going on here. Let's cut the the fat pensions of the cop's (because of their dangerous occupation, 40 something killed a year is not that dangerous IMO) and take that money and address the real issues..social issues and a direct result of changes made years ago.
I'm a realist and know that will never happen, bangers killing each in Chicago (another social problem) teenagers killing each other..anyone else see a common thread here..

People are going to die in any civilized society, there is no utopia and never will be.

By this logic, we should have absolutely no laws at all, just "suggestions."

Well, you have to read to the end of the story.

"At the end of the day, I want to make it very clear that the NRA is in absolutely no rush to change anything," LaPierre later said in a written statement. "One thousand dead kids would have very little impact on us. Now if 50,000 kids died in a school shooting that might be a different story. Something around 50,000 to 80,000 dead kids. You know what, forget that. Maybe something closer to 250,000. Yeah, 250,000 dead kids."

We don't need laws that only affect law-abiding citizens and that will do nothing to reduce crime. Some of you are so dense!
