Will...it's obvious to many insiders as well who don't worship guns, have a John Wayne Complex or think that they can stand up to the military...

The result? Since then only one incident of mass shootings in 17 years. We have our fair share of nutters, but if they don't have access to guns, they can't shoot people. Stabbings are a problem, but that largely seems tied in to gangs. I make it 10 mass shootings in the US in 2012 alone. As an outsider this seems obvious. The real issue here IMO is the constitution, and the nature of gun ownership in the US. Anyway, I'll dip out again now. :) Will On 10 January 2013 19:45, Maureen <[email protected]> wrote: > > All you have to do to know why gun control laws will fail to eliminate > the criminal use of guns is to watch a few episodes of Sons of Anarchy. > > Banning large capacity magazines, which seems to be the plan, will > only give the gun runners a profitable new product. > > The problem is not with guns or ammo, the problem is that people who > are criminally insane have access to guns.
