Take California. When they decided to ban so-called assault rifles they drew up the law then went looking for a crime to justify it. They released Pat Purdy from the mental institution for the 7th time, let him buy a gun, then he went to the Stockton school yard and shot a bunch of kids. The bill to ban assault rifles was immediatly filed, passed and signed into law before anyone could muster opposition to it.
Brittan. They wanted to ban handguns so they drafted the law then waited for the Dunblane massacre.
When they wanted to ban assault rifles they drafted the law and then Hungerford happened.
I guess I just have lived too long to trust any politician who wants to ban anything "for the children" or to "protect the public". There has always been an alternate motive behind it.

I'm just unsure as to whether these crimminal incidents you speak of were gov't conspiracies. I'm not saying they're not; I just don't know.
