Hx of mental health problem (Schizophrenia, and possibly Impulse Control Disorder) + unsecured guns* = nightmare.



*my understanding is that the pistols belonged to his mother.

ABC news is saying the 20 year old shooter purchased the guns legally. Yet in the next sentence ABC news says he used another persons ID to purchase the weapons. In my book that is either a straw purchase or a fraudulent purchase, neither is a legal purchase. ABC needs to learn the meaning of the word legal. Legal means he followed the law. A 20 year old can not legally purchase a gun in CT.

Yes that's probably true, but they know that this kind of story sells, and companies buying add time, pay them good money to hold the attention of the TV audience. News gatherers are biased, not impartial, and are a part of the problem. Reminds me of the song from a few years ago, "Dirty Laundry"

Okay, I am going to say what I think may be the problem and if it's been mentioned before or in this thread, then I apologize. Here goes. What makes people think it's the guns that are the problem, when the reality is that there were guns in America for hundreds of years and this **** wasn't happening. What IS the problem you ask? Well, how about violent video games or violent movies strait from Hollywood who only cares about how much money the movies make? How come the socialist media doesn't mention a thing about these things? Why? I sure as hell don't know why! Maybe instead of asking what kind of gun the shooter was using, the media should ask why we allow such **** to be pumped into our kids' heads?

It's time that those who abuse firearms be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. I am Canadian and our gun laws are sound. Unfortunately, it's the courts which allow criminals using firearms leniency. I am fairly certain the enforcement of gun laws in the USA are the same. The old testament was right, "an eye for an eye".

As to the shooter in CT, and those which facilitated his firearm aquistions, death is too good for them. I hope there is a heaven so that they suffer in hell for eternity.

I will pray for the innocents who were murdered, and their families.

Obama and his crocodile tears. I don't know if he is really upset about the killings, or overcome by the opportunity for ravaging lawful gun owners, just handed to him by this crazy. Hold on tight, the import ban on firearms will begin shortly. Fasten your seat belts, and put your trays in the upright position. It is going to get bumpy. You all need to send some money fast, to Gun Owners of America, and the National Rifle Association. More will get done by them, than by us, damning the shooter, in a forum that probably is not read by our Congress The GOA and NRA are pretty much all you will find on our side who will be, "up all night" for us tonight, and for a while. If you can think of other groups that defend our gun rights, send them some cash to.

I was attacked on facebook from someone who knows I'm a gun guy, unprovoked they posted some message on my wall screaming at me like it was my fault. I told them to at the very least let the children's blood dry and to stop circling the corpses like vultures consuming their flesh for their own political agenda.

Obumers tears are tears of joy that he is going to get the chance to take our gun rights away! Take a piece of aluminum and try to ram it through a piece of reinforced steel then you will see the truth of what our government is capable of ! To all my fellow members here I advise you to form friendships with the people you go shooting with, train your family members how to shoot well and consider the idea of forming your own militias its your constitutional responsibility. We owe it to our forefathers who formed this wonderful country out of nothing to stand up against these government rats who are trying to disarm us. I fully believe in my heart that this is a government operation to disarm us all. There I have said it and I'll stand by that statement!

That's (at least) the second time you've posted that. Give us a break from this B as in S.
