Hey, wait, let’s just say it’s against the law to kill someone!

While we're at it, let's just outlaw abuse of dope and hard drugs too.

Along with speeding, wife beating and pedophilia.

Criminals do not apply for licenses.

The real question here is: “Why weren’t they arrested?” Aren’t we protected by the laws? Isn’t the Police Department supposed to “protect” us?

Exactly!

All you ever hear from liberals is "We need more laws!" Why don't they ever say, "We need to ENFORCE more laws!"?

Anyone notice the news blackout on the types of firearms the bombers had?

Usually the MSM would be plastering photos of them everywhere while calling for the Senate to revote on the AW ban that failed.

That’s easy to fix. Let’s pass a law against possessing a handgun without a handgun license.

There otta be a law against it.

Well, it lends credence to the assertion that gun control laws primarily constrain already law abiding citizens.

Let's get serious, if they are not going to obey explosive laws, laws against murder, laws against terrorism, who thinks that firearms (aka gun control) laws would stop them in their tracks?

If these guys carjack to get a vehicle, if they are willing to murder police in cold blood, what kind of law would keep them from getting their hands on firearms?

Anyone who says this is an example of why we need tighter firearm laws, should be laughed off the planet and asked if the USA would have been better in Boston on April 15th with tighter firearm laws or tighter immigration laws?
