Lets not dance around the issue that makes this murder, all schools murders, mass killings, domestic killings, criminal gang killings, drive by's, robberies and probably 99% of all murders possible, "the proliferation of guns" in our society despite most Americans and all law enforcement wanting strict gun control laws. The NRA is not the protector of the 2nd Amendment it is the agency for the gun manufacturers who only interest is to sell as many guns to whoever can buy them. There is a reason we evolved from the Wild West- because everyone realized the greater damage the proliferation of guns played in society than the falsely stated reason of "protection". Hands guns and ammunition are made specifically to kill humans. I'm not anti-gun, just pro strict, limited and no military equivalent weaponry for sell to non police or US military organizations. My 2 cents! Back to Canes football.
Skimmed through completely agree. We should only have non military weapon and we should have stricter laws on how and who can buy guns.
really? The gun that killed Will Smith was a hand gun. Not military weapon
Majority of deaths in America are by hand guns.
Ad we don't need laws on who can and buy guns. We have something called the second amendment.
Not to mention that the 2nd Amendment is not for hunting but rather about being prepared for possible military action necessary to preserve our freedom. There is a much stronger argument that the government should be required to GIVE us military grade weapons than there is that is has any right at all to restrict guns.
The Founding Fathers understood where the greatest threats to our freedom would come from; first 2 amendments were specifically designed to help protect it. They believed that the only safe hands to protect freedom where those of the people, not any government. Any assault on either should be viewed as an assault on our freedom. There is a reason why the first American revolution started when the government tried to seize citizens' arms.
