Aren't most guns, involved in gun crimes, legally purchased at one time and subsequently either sold or stolen ?

or do you think most of the gun crimes are from guns smuggled into this country ?

What conclusion are you looking for? Smuggled into the US? You have got to be kidding me.

Doesn't Virginia Tech have a special responsibility to protect their students since they prohibit self defense?

I would think so.

We should pull out of Virginia now! It’s a quagmire. Americans are needlessly dying. I blame Bush. < /sarc>

Liberal sheeple get slaughtered. And their reaction is to make it easier for more of their kind to be slaughtered. Democrat late term abortion.

How long before Sarah Brady comes out with her mouth? How long before the usual Marxist’s theme that WE NEED TO TAKE AWAY ALL GUNS!! These fools cannot keep 21 illegals out of the country, have never stopped the flow of illegal drugs into the country, and they think they can stop all guns from being in the country????? Nope, only law abiding citizens will not have guns. Criminals will continue to have them.

What's your point?

Point of order. "Most guns" are not "involved in gun crimes." Lose the commas and you'll have an answerable question instead of a tendentious pseudo-argument.

Aren't your questions a bit stupid and moronic or do you think that your the one that maybe is stupid and moronic with your half assed, drive by Brady bill talking points? I've seen your moronic points and its always on the gun, not the gunman. Away DU'ing flying monkey!

It doesn't matter. The 2A only applied to single shot flintlocks and these were only for militias.

What’s the gunmans name? Has that come out yet or are we still waiting on the “If it’s anything other race but white, we can’t give the name out” PC police?

It depends on the gun. If it's a gang-banger AK47, then it has entered the country illegally (usually from China). Other handguns are stolen from shipments. M-16 and military weapons are completely illegal and usually stolen by unscrupulous military personnel or law enforcement and sold on the black market.

I really hope you understand. Restricting gun ownership accomplishes nothing. Police will not protect you, and your LIFE is a NATURAL RIGHT! I grew up in the 'hood. The criminals there don't care about the law, they just don't. M-16s, AK-47, mean nothing to them. They know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy with the "hook-up". What do you do about that?

As far as emotions, we're supposed to be adults. We all know it is morally wrong and illegal to kill someone out of anger no matter if you feel that way. It doesn't matter if a gun is used, or a kitchen butcher knife, of a rock, or an iron pot, or a just a human fist or foot. I don't believe the gun makes it "easier".

Do you have a point or are you just a hit-n-run coward?

May you stand before God and man as my two precious grandchildren's killer if you pass any more gun legislation that will make me a felon should I own a handgun or any other gun for that matter.

Sincerely,
