Teens who Murdered Baseball Player Too Young to Legally Own Firearms

The Truth About Guns ^ | Aug 21, 2013 | Nick Leghorn

Yesterday, CNN was all over the story of three teenagers in Oklahoma who shot and killed a baseball player who was walking down the street just to watch him die. It’s a horrific story, and these teens definitely deserve to fry, but as with every other gun-related story the mainstream media picks up on, it’s being used to demonize the NRA and further the gun control agenda. But consider the following: these teens were too young to legally purchase firearms in the first place. So, in fact, the proposed gun control bill that Democrats still have their panties in a knot about wouldn’t have stopped it. And yet . . .

From an Australian official:

Tourists thinking of going to the USA should think twice. This is the bitter harvest and legacy of the policies of the NRA that even blocked background checks for people buying guns at gunshows. People should take this into account before going to the United States. I am deeply angry about this because of the callous attitude of the three teenagers (but) it’s a sign of the proliferation of guns on the ground in the USA. There is a gun for almost every American.

Under current law, these teenagers were barred from possessing firearms of any kind. The oldest was 17, still a year shy of being able to buy a gun. And under Oklahoma law, they were barred for having the guns outside of “sporting” uses like hunting.

So simply possessing the guns was illegal. Not to mention the fact that murder is in and of itself very much a crime. And yet the solution to the issue of “gun violence” for members of the Gun Control Industrial Complex is… wait for it… more laws. Still. Again. Not more law enforcement. Not more education. Not community outreach, but more pieces of paper, laws that will only impact the law abiding while having no effect on the criminals that the laws are ostensibly trying to stop.

If you listen to the video, the chief of police (Danny Ford) makes it very clear where these teenagers got their guns. “They steal them.” The shotgun that was found in the car had the serial number ground off. The guns were obtained illegally. No background check system in the world would have kept those guns out of their hands. And yet . . .

Gasp!

They dissed “the law”.

So, let’s make more laws.

(The above is presented as a prime example of why liberals should be kept away from all things technical, logical, and modern.)

[From The Deer Stand]

What? Criminals violating gun laws? Whodathunk?

[Veto!]

Excellent info. Thanks

Liberals are willing to sue gun manufacturers for gun related deaths; the victim’s should sue the manufacturers of the “yoots” of murder (aka mamma and daddy).

I would settle for individuals being held to account for their own actions.

I'm not optimistic, mind you.

Loons on MSNBC including Clarence Page just finished blaming the incident on guns,NOT feral,negro teenagers with no direction or sense of purpose from single or no parent environments. I will use environment as it fits better than a home and aligns best with feral.

The liberal thought here is that if they restrict lawful owners from having guns, or make ammunition more expensive and difficult to obtain, eventually... eventually... there will be a trickle effect making it more difficult for criminals to obtain guns and ammo.

Meanwhile, the law-abiding will be denied a primary means of protection, and be killed by the thousands, but that’s not taken into account. I think it’s not taken into account for two reasons:

- the Machiavellian liberals/radicals view control of the population as paramount, and even view many of the criminals as defacto allies

- the weakminded TV-influenced white collar liberals have no sense of quantitative reality (haven’t been mugged yet) and think of all of this as improbable and happening at a distance from them

Good. Stay home, Leftists, you can appease the Muslims in your own backyard.

I dont remember leftists blaming the gun instead of George Zimmerman..all I heard from leftist a-holes was that Zimmerman was just a mean mean racist who killed baby face Trayvon cause he was black..but now, with this case, since the perps are black, they blame the gun not the individual..WOW liberals, your stupidity never ceases to amaze me

[tumblindice]

Were the yutes in an SUV? Guns are small but SUVs are usually big.
These children may have been unduly coerced by the very evil SUV.
Or maybe it was global warming. Won’t anyone think of the chilluns?

Problem: Teens who Murdered Baseball Player Too Young to Legally Own Firearms

Liberal Solution: Punish and prosecute all those who legally own firearms!

I'll double down, and go with a quote from Si Robinson.

American does not have a gun control problem, it has a sin control problem.

I remember hearing one of the leftists on tv (redundant, granted) complaining that Zimmerman didn't have the safety on when carrying his Kel-Tec.

Need I point out that the Kel-Tec in question doesn't even have an external safety?

And the young Australian would be just as dead if they had used baseball bats, golf clubs, a 4 foot piece of 1" galvanized water pipe or just stomped & kicked him with the latest pair of $150 NBA star signature sneakers.

Probably another Trayvon Martin connected act of Fiendishness

Clarence Page: another Demo-party house negro. Like Leo Pitts and Charles “A Glistening black Negro, Lawd Lawd! Hep me” Blow.
But their numbers are legion. They have the courage of field mice.

These are the kind of kids who if they didn't have guns would have made molotov-cocktails and threw them at people, or ran up and stabbed them, or ran them over, or poisoned them or the millions of other things you can do to kill someone.

The problem is not HOW they kill but WHY and the answer is the parents. End of story. I have a kid who is 15 years old as well. I know where and what my kid is doing every minute of every day, and I can tell you right now there is no way in hell he is "gang- banging" there is no way in hell he is posting photos of himself with thousands of dollars in cash from robbing people like these kids did, and there is not a chance in hell he is taking photos of himself making gang signs while showing off guns.

So WHY IS THAT THE FAULT OF THE NRA If THE PARENTS ARE IRRESPONSIBLE A-HOLES??

Look at this!! This was posted on their Facebook accounts:

Just. Like. Martin.
Worth repeating:
Just like St. Trayvon™…
