You say this as if he wasn’t already shooting kids. Any bullets shot at him when he first aimed his gun would have at least improved the chances of stopping him. But instead, he was able to massacre all the kids in the class with zero resistance because it was a “gun free zone”. If the other teachers and staff had guns to fight back, a few might have died before he would have been stopped, but he wouldn’t have had the time to kill 20 kids.
Wrong. The data is from the ATF as the source notes.
You sure about that? The ATF found that 30% of guns used in a crime were acquired at a gun show. Even the NRA supports closing that legal loophole! The City of New York conducted an investigation in 3 different states and found that 74% of even licensed dealers were willing to sell guns to their undercover agents even after they told the seller they were legally prohibited from purchasing them.Criminals are NOT buyin their weapons at gun shows!! they buy them from other criminals or cut out the middle man and STEAL them them selves!!!
u are ASSUMING that gun shows have murders there!! Ive been to several gun shows over the years. havnt ever heard of anyone from said gun show bein there! but its still irrelevant, cause it’s been said he couldnt buy a gun.
And, as the ATF and City of New York pointed out, legally prohibited persons can and have bought guns at gun shows because there is no legal requirement that background checks are performed there.
I’m not talking about banning guns and, as I’ve already pointed out, people don’t go buy alcohol or cars for the purpose of mass murder.
The ATF didn’t say that
fast and furious was a poor excuse by our current administration that forced gun dealers to sell weapons to criminals n mexico as well as the ATF !! so whatever they wanna say about illegal gun sales means nothing to me. and Im sure means even less to the slain border control agent!
and all the guns I have purchased, I have NEVER bought one to murder anyone with!!
Which seems to be the prevailing attitude among gun owners and why children will continue to be slaughtered. Some people don’t care that a small inconvenience can save lives.
And thats great but I don’t believe in selling guns to people without mandatory background checks and psychological evaluations no matter who is selling them.
Adam Lanza was denied a gun when he requested a gun and took his mother’s guns instead which were legally registered to her. What gun control law would of stopped Adam Lanza from taking those guns?
What additional gun controls that you want, would have stopped the CT shooting?
That is a question for parents to ask. Why have a gun at all with a mentally unstable child in the house?
yer logic about “gun owners” and our children can apply to anything. but u keep dodging cause Im assumin u like alcohol, eatin, baseball games.
I am sure whether Adam Lanza was living with her, but if he was living with her, that should be the choice for the mother to take. What about having better mental services in all states and not having services taken away by ‘civil liberties’ groups which has happened in CO. Adam Lanza was not legally a child, he was 20 years old. Mentally unstable should not be all tarnished with a brush because of Adam Lanza, many are sensitive and would never commit a crime
You want gun control laws, surely you should have an answer. I think we both know the truth that no gun control law could of stopped Adam Lanza from getting a gun, he could of stole guns from a neighbour even if his mother did not have guns
