LOL at the answer to this problem being to make it easier for any Dick off the street to carry a gun anywhere they want.

yeah, and earlier it was 20

maybe this killer has found a way to age posthumously!

There's a difference between mentally ill and behaving irrationally. The perpetrator would have been unable to commit the crime if he were not behaving rationally on some level.

OK fine, we're not talking about a utility maximizing individual.

You got the point.

Yes. I do have some empathy for people who can't get the toys they want. It sucks, but it's not that big of a deal.

Being able to walk into a gun show on any given day and buy armfuls of guns with no background check, is not a liberal policy.

all of this is essentially already the law in CT, and the felon stuff is federal law iirc.

But what if they saw a dude with some Skittles and they didn't have their gun? DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THAT, DID YOU??? GOTCHA!

Why are people seriously discussing bills217 torture fantasies?

The only way I can see a gun "ban" working is if we could somehow destroy every gun in the world and also destroy all the knowledge of how to build a gun. Might keep us gun free for a couple years.

yeah I mean clearly work was the only possibly place his mom would ever be.

oh I want to hear this...

goddamn it, NJ AND CT BOTH have laws in place to protect children! When will these lazy laws get off their asses and start deflecting bullets or some ****?!

We need to stop passing laws in America and start passing SUPER laws!

buy your own, commie.

This was a serious question, btw.

According to wikipedia, need to pass a background check.

I'm just trying to make America a safer place.

I like how the alternative to "ban guns" is "make everyone carry a gun".

Do you think the law against murder should be repealed? It pretty clearly did not prevent this tragedy.

Dear ambulance chasing scumbags, **** you all

Because it would be more effective than creating more black markets?

I don't personally support any such thing. What I am trying to figure out is why a liberal wouldn't. So far the answer i've received is: they empathize with the perpetrators. That marks a difference from my views. I don't, at all.

Bills217: doesn't support giving government the power to torture people, but, eh, you guys are already pretty much there, so what gives?

Liberals: no objection to giving governments nearly unlimited powers to implement ineffective solutions, but object to potentially effective solutions because they empathize with the perpetrators of the worst crimes imaginable.
