How many more presidents, senators or others must die before we awaken to this moral depravity?
Any fool with cash can waltz into a gunnery, produce some class of Mickey Mouse identification, and purchase a weapon. They may even show up for peace-related services weekly to give lip-service to the Lord.
I was in the Ambassador Hotel the night Robert Kennedy was slain. I know the meaning of personal grief! |

Any fool with an opinion can also get that opinion printed by another fool with a newspaper.

Quite simply, EVERY time we here such silliness we must remind the purveyor that there are already laws against this, so what they REALLY MEAN is:
They want to make it easier for the government to declare someone mentally ill and a danger to themselves or others, OR for the government (like the Tucson police) to do their JOB in identifying and tracking such people.
It is already illegal for the dangerous mentally unstable to obtain firearms. |

| How does one determine if a person is mentally unstable? And how does that person prove that he isn't? The Tucson shooter had never been judged insane, so how could he be denied a gun? |
