(Let me get this straight: the shooting occurred in the city and state with some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country and "Dr Demento" here thinks the problem is not enough gun control? )
This thinking is consistent with the Liberals' MO. Every time their policies don't work, they want more of the same. When welfare doesn't work, it's because we're not spending enough money on it. If public schools don't work it's because we're not spending enough money on it. If taxes rise and they choke the economy, they want to raise taxes more to make up for loss of tax revenues. If a toll increase makes people take other routes, they raise the tolls to make up for the short fall. If gun control doesn't work, they want to increase it. When an increase in the minimum wage predictably raises unemployment, they want to increase the minimum wage further...

Actually, is may well be "Dr. Deformo" if he is (as is all too likely, alas) a NYC Liberal co-religionist of mine. If so, odds are he is a member of a "Reform" congregation. And we conservative/orthodox Jews tend to laughingly dub them, and their congregation as the "Deform" rather than the "Reform" congregation, etc.
Think of it as insdier humor, akin to some of the less than charitable terms used in any religious schism. For example, how Northern Baptists refer to some Southern Baptists.
But the gun grabbing rhetoric is, sad to say, far more common amongst the "Deformed" than the Baptists. Pity!
