Another week, another psychotic shooting spree, this time in Orange, Calif., where among the four killed last Wednesday was a 9-year-old boy. It was sobering to learn that this murdered child, with whom I share a first name, died at the same age I was when the Columbine shooting happened in 1999.
Predictably, the killer used a semi-automatic handgun, a type of weapon the vast majority of civilians don’t need and which is far too easy to obtain in this country.
Yet even the most moderate and sensible calls for restrictions on firearm ownership continue to be met with the same tired objections. The people who moo along with these talking points, which ultimately trace back to the $62 billion gun industry and profit-protecting astroturf lobbies, all seem to be under the impression that their claims are unanswerable.
Are they, though? Let’s see whether it’s possible to handle them all in a single column.

So I guess they want all pistols, revolvers and rifles banned.
Then they’d go after Derringers. Same ol stuff. Go after the 737-max for crashing and killing a lot, yet they’re back.
So stupid.
Notice the uptick in gun violence now when the rats are in control
This is why people who know nothing about guns shouldn’t write about gun control laws.
Lol pretty much! Yet they fancy themselves as experts.
If they were to just ban gun ownership for Democrats, that would end most “gun violence.” /sarcasm
At the article it shows an unrelated photo from another crime and they call it an “arsenal”. A shotgun, rifle and four handguns.
I guess if they found it all on the guy while he was in the store that might be considered an “arsenal”. My guess is they found it after searching his car or home.
“Predictably, the killer used a semi-automatic handgun, a type of weapon the vast majority of civilians don’t need and which is far too easy to obtain in this country”
Who says what kind of gun I need? Someone who says I don’t need a gun at all. Makes me determined to keep my guns until they are taken out of “my dead cold hands”.
ps.
Legal guns are not easy to obtain. That’s a lie.
NY Post reverting back to its tard ways........
These ass hats 🧢 want “sensible gun restrictions.” What exactly does that mean? I would venture to guess, their definition of sensible, probably differs from mine.
I love it when someone tells uses the “you don’t need one” argument.
My reply is; “you don’t need that opinion and you should stop saying those things”. Without exception they quickly snap back about their right to say what they think.
Then they’re trapped in their own failed logic
Hey look, same tired talking points and lame anecdotal vomit but the a-holes made up another fidiotic term:”gun absolutist”! I guess that’s what I am green eggs and ham!
The party said we need gun control, therefore, the party loyalists make it happen. Yes, they write articles, fabricate false statistics and push psychologically imbalanced citizens into violence.
something for the lefties to consider ... when all firearms are banned and no one has them think about this. Perps will use other weapons to threaten their targets. So in a violent confrontation where you are most like going to die, would you prefer a quick shot through your skull killing you instantly or a katakana through your guts leaving you screaming in agony while you thrash around on the ground trying to gather your intestines, all the while slowly dying. You could be in unbelievable pain for hours before the death claims you.
Something to think about, lefties.
The left is either unable or unwilling to understand that a hundred good guys with a rooms filled with fully automatic weapons are far less dangerous than a single bad guy with a hammer. It’s not the tool, it’s the intent of the user.

With defund the Police Alinskyites running many of our cities, such as Minneapolis; Portland, Seattle, Chicago, New York City , Baltimore, Washington DC, where gun crimes are rising so quickly that the police can no longer protect the public, what we see is a huge increase in gun purchases by Black people and women, according to statistics.

People have decided that they have to protect themselves, which is why this lefty idiot is caterwauling about guns that Americans do not need. The fact is Americans need guns desperately because of the anti-police activity of those like this A$$ HAT Alinskyite treasonous bastid, Matthew Walther . He needs to get up close and personal with a PPK.
The next time that BLM or ANTIFA decide to riot and loot in a black neighborhood, they will likely be met with a hail of lead, thanks to the 2nd amendment.
I like that.
Walther doesn’t.
Walther is desperate.
I like Walther an all his Alinskyite running dogs desperate.
Th3ey know they will have to face the guns of fee Americans.
True dat.
