What's with all these idiots lately grabbing guns and shooting people?

Sheesh. It's really seem to be ramping up alot lately.

It's a conspiracy. Buy em' while you can. [M2]

With the economic times I kinda saw this coming...people are frustrated, losing everything they have worked for or even what little things they had before that they didn't work for (welfare monglers).
now there isn't much else left to lose and everything to gain. People are mad, they want something they feel was taken from them but go about it with violence and unfortunately guns are easy for the media to demonize as "killers" even though it is the man behind the gun and not the actual gun itself.

[iamhunter]

Yah! But if he couldn't BUY guns he couldn't shoot people, right?!

sarcasm of course.

[Batteriesnare]

Of course he brought along his trusty "assault rifle."

[BigBear]

Dont' you know the "ASSualt Rifle" is more easily concealed than the "BOOM stick" (RPG)?!?! HAHA.

I also wonder why their background check system hasn't worked. that is supposed to encompass all gun owners and all citizens who buy guns. There is never such a thing as people working around the system....never.

just like taxes, everyone pays them.
just like drivers license...everyone has them
just like car insurance...everyone pays it
just like immigrants...they all come across the border legally

You forgot to add health insurance! [Bang][Rant1][Bang]

[BigBear]

And welfare!!! Don't you know those poor people are trying HARD to find a good job!!

How else will they fund their crack addiction?

(Wrong on so many levels, I know... just trying to have some fun and be not PC).

The first two people to comment on that story (on the news site, not here) are spouting out "gun control" BS.

Before we (.gov) start to take away citizens rights, why don't we try the whole "control" thing on something we can all agree is bad for you - and society as a whole; like illegal narcotics.
[start sarcastic response]
I say that we place some restriction and controls on illegal narcotics to get those off of the streets. We need to pass laws and increase control over these drugs to reduce the chances of someone becoming adversely effected by them and to reduce the crime directly associated to drugs. That should get all of the drugs off of the street; right?
[end sarcasm]
Given that the .gov has been doing just that sort of thing for drugs for decades and drugs are just as readily available as they ever were, what makes people think that "gun control" regulations/activities will be any more successful? Why, as a law abiding citizen, should my rights be infringed because a few dumbasses choose to do something already illegal?

The anti-gunners are so ridiculously naive.

Once again, my thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and their families.

it ain't over yet. obama announced today he wants to tax the super high profile plans...I think that should include the .gov plans as well...i.e senators and congressman, but I doubt it.
They wanted to tax the wealthy to cover it. Sounds like a bitter dispute amongst the dems. I think before long you will see some secede from the pack and drop the whole thing completely.

that is the beauty of the dems...they have their heads so far up their asses that they fight among themselves for their own uber-libtard selves that they can't work together to get something done as a group which includes some compromise.

I remember seeing these kinds of kids in school and college, they would take over an entire group project and do the thing themself with little to no input from the rest of the group just so it was done "their way". those people grow up and some become libtards[ROFL1]

The story on Fox that I read described the gun used by this lunatic not as simply an "assault rifle", but as a "large assault rifle".

Now that's really scary.

[Mtn.man]

Well Size does Matter...

I thought that assault rifles were classified by firing an intermediary round (between pistol and rifle). What would a "large assault rifle" fire that would be any bigger than the 7.62? I highly doubt that some whack job went in there with a SOCOM or Beowolf.
