Tell that to two dead girls and their families why their murderers are walking the streets

Violation of 2nd and 4th Amendment rights is apparently just fine if its 'For the Children'. Hmmm, where have I heard that argument before...?

Who said anyone right’s are being violated, save for the two executed citizens? Cops shouldn’t turn over every stone that they legally can in order to find out who violated the biggest violation of someone else’s rights?

But I’ll bet you are a really cheerleader for pro-life rights aren’t you.

I'm convinced that America will eventually wind up as a police state, and it will be "For the Children".

"For the Children" is almost but not quite as offensive to me as "If it saves just one life, it's worthwhile."

And AFAIC, the police checking registrations on the weapon in question is just solid police work....might turn up someone who knew the family, who was in the area, etc etc. I'm shocked that this is even news.

HOWEVER...asking everyone to come in for a test firing is a massive waste of time and taxpayer dollars. Only a complete fool would show up, particularly with the murder weapon. Makes the police (who frankly sound like they're grasping at straws) look like they're doing something, that's all. But it's OK because it's "For the Children", and if "It stops just one more crime from occurring" it's worthwhile.
