No clue Cop

 

We already have laws stating we can't kill people. So it could be argued that more laws that only the law abiding people will follow isn't the answer.

 

In a perfect world? I would take all the assault type guns off the streets. But that can't be done

 

What I due find interesting is that quite often the choice of weapon is an assault style rifle. In most cases more carriage could be done with a simple shot gun loaded with XX buck. But IMO assault type rifles are used do to the video game age. Its what is used in the games, so its what killers use as well.

 

I have many guns, and of the rifles the most lethal is a simple marlin hunting rifle, wood stock looks very normal. I have multiple 30 round clips for it. Gun looks like a normal varmit gun, but is bad ass. I can and have bump shot it from the hip where you allow the recoil of the gun to engage the trigger (takes a while to get the handle of) and the gun will fire 25+ rounds in 15 secs. Flawless, time after time.

 

Guns now are often judged by how they look, not what they can do. Which reminds me, I was once told by a Def attorney, that if you have a gun to protect your self do NOT USE a modern looking all black synthetic stick MODERN looking gun. Because the gun will be shown to the jury. you want a wooden stock, blued barrel hunting looking gun, to appear sympathetic. 

 

 I am of the believe that a major part of the problem are video games. They glorify death and desensitize  death .

 

But back to your question. No clue. But I do know as a peoples we DO NEED to find an answer. having children killed while at school, and people killed while at the DR is horrible. HORRIBLE.

 

If part of  the solution means there are certain guns I can't own, so be it. If part of the solution is that it's harder to purchase ammo or guns, so be it.

 

The NRA has become a part of the problem, and I no longer am a member.

Good points. The only solution I see is to ban the sale and manufacturing of all guns and confiscate the ones already out there. We all know that's virtually impossible. If you take something away crazy people will just use something else to kill. You would only be taking away the people's right to protect their selves. IMO.

 confiscate the ones already out there.

We may? have been able to do that 25 years ago.

 

Simply to many of them now.

 

But with that thought in mind, that is the reason I buy almost all of my guns used from individuals. I want no paper trail.

If it not guns it will be ied's/ bombs.

 

.

I don't believe that

 

In a fit of rage, a troubled teen or bi-polar nut can go to a gun closet and pick out a gun and kill people THAT DAY.

 

Bombs take time to make and in most cases prior to bomb being made the  person has calmed down.

 

also a bomb made by most people will kill others within a very small range (size of a mini van) where as a gun will kill within 50 yards and as people are moving away from the killer.
