Mother walking with baby stroller fatally shot in NYC, in good area on Upper East Side (link). These guns are out of control. The Justices of the Supreme Court liberated these guns to wreak havoc. Common sense gun restrictions would have prevented this grizzly murder. The guns must be brought under control.

Rudolphus Magnus Giulianis showed us how to fix the crime problem in NYC. It didn’t seem too difficult when he did it. But alas, it turned out to be racist.

I never mentioned race. One of the possibilities is someone taking part in activities at the 92nd Street YM-YWHA. This occurred three blocks north of the 92 St. Y.

Please explain how.

And maybe that is where your are confused, your statement "guns must be brought under control" alludes to the fact that you think the guns themselves are committing these crimes. In case you don't know, a firearm needs an end user to do anything. Your angst should be focused on the thugs that are breaking laws and committing these crimes.

Um...no. Common sense CRIMINAL control would have prevented that. Mandatory, long min sentences. 3 strikes laws. Locking up criminals for property crimes. Putting prisoners behind bars until they come up with bail. NOT letting them out of prison because they might catch a cold. As you said though-NYC. Some of the most regressive, backwards gun laws in the country, where it's virtually impossible for a citizen to get a carry permit, where buying is very severely restricted, and where cops flood the streets. Right along with the criminals, due to the policies of the leadership of the city and state. Democratic leaders empathize far more with criminals than with the American citizens that are their innocent victims, ensuring that criminals are free to prey time after time. The blood of the victims is on their hands.

Do you really think in this short time frame CPL's have been handed out like candy ? Come on man, utilize a little critical thinking ...is that possible ? Also, one still has to apply for a license for a handgun, or a permit for a rifle.

Subject to limited exceptions, possession of a handgun or rifle/shotgun in New York City requires a license (for handguns) or a permit (for rifles/shotguns) issued by the NYPD License Division.

Do both of you really want to lock 17 year olds up for the rest of their lives. Time to show a little kindness.
