Wherever there is more access to firearms, there is less crime.
You want a red-flag. What about body armor?
Nobody, repeat, nobody goes hunting or target shooting in kevlar body armor. The only thing it is good for is combat and commiting crimes.

Like father, like son. Being a scumbag is family tradition for Dodd. His dad was a statist asshole who despised freedom, just like the son does.His father give us the gift of the 1968 GCA. According to JPFO, the GCA is based on the Nazi gun laws.

As I said with Bloomberg, there’s still plenty of time for him to run for President as an independent. He should do so and MAKE HIS CASE to the people. Otherwise he should SHUT UP.

I was hoping against hope that this POS was *gone* for good.
Dodd now pulls down $1.2 million, and now serves as CEO of the Motion Picture Association of America, the lobbying arm of the movie industry. This new career seems to fly in the face of his 2010 avowal that he would do no lobbying.
He *respects* 2A rights as much as his father Tom Dodd did....after daddy gave us The Gun Control Act of 1968. The apple doesn't fall far....

What is needed is more restictions on movies. That is the problem. “Physician, heal thy self.”

Effective portable long guns have been around for over 500 years. Loaded with multiple heavy shot as a "blunderbuss," they were the deadly "assault weapons" of their era: especially when you consider the poor state of medical care for trauma and infection post wounding.
The 2nd Amd has been around for 220 years. Multiple-shot handguns are 150 years old. Semi-auto "assault rifles" are 80 years old. Yet there were no maniac massacres to speak of.
What has changed is the culture. Dark, nihilistic movies with evil but charismatic "anti-heroes" have only existed in the last 30 or so years. Yet liberals don't want to discuss the smashing of cultural and moral values, only the availability of guns!

Ya beat me to it. With all the violence, murder and mayhem we see in the movies, etc., the first place to start is to regulate agains’t it at the movie theater . Hit the movie makers in the pocket book and things will be changed. Boycott all movies of violence.

Even then the so-called gun hating Socialists Liberals are not telling the complete truth. They have no problem with their guys, the police, their bodyguards and their personel private security forces having and using guns. They just do not want the lw abiding citizens to have guns.
It says a lot, though none of it good, about the condition of the Nation,to wit, those who have a slave mentality vs. those who still believe in personal freedom and personal responsibility. While I think that it should be 100% freedom vs 0% slave, from what I witness day to day it is more 95-99% slave vs 5-1 % freedom.

I don’t agree. The elites might control most of the MSM, but just read the comments in the liberal papers after their pro gun control articles and editorials. At least 80% of the comments are anti the paper and anti gun control. Ditto every online poll I’ve seen. Our message is getting out, despite the elite MSM.

Guns in law abiding hands stop a whole lot more violence than guns in thugs’ hands, start.

We need a Continental Militia. Armed citizens following the model of the Israeli society. Answerable ONLY to the governor of their state and not connected to any Federal agency.

More gun control? Guns were already totally, completely, 100% absolutely banned in that theater. Which is precisely why the shooter chose it as a target.
