I'm going to have to unsubscribe to WAPO's Facebook posts after reader comments like this:

LaNelle Kenney Holland Most people are too stupid to have access to any guns much less a Glock!

What they post is so stupid that I actually feel less intelligent after reading it.

Glock is the new AK-47.

[Poser]

I’ve got a Glock 17 (ported) but I would never carry it. It has no effective safety. If you accidentally brush the trigger, it goes off.

They are being bought up because of the perception of an imminent ban.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Buy it now to avoid not being able to get it after they ban it......

Which means; Under the current gun sale laws, they will know where to come and get it. And it had better be there when they do!

[newzjunkey]

Sales are up because of fear gov’t will ban them because of this incident. What does that say about gov’t?

[sergeantdave]

“We’re at double our volume over what we usually do,”

That could mean he sold 4, double the 2 he usually sells.

[Cheerio]

This is more about fear of what our Government is about to do than fear of having to protect ones self.

They can thank Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik for the increased sales.

If his office had followed up on the complaints against Jared Loughner regarding threats he made and his mental condition Loughner would have had a record that would have prevented him from purchasing his own Glock back in November.
