Legal guns . . . . [View all]
. . . . were used to shoot Gabby Giffords and all those people in Arizona. Legal guns were used to shoot the people in the Aurora movie theater. The guns used by the two shooters in Columbine were obtained legally. The VA Tech shooter bought his guns legally.
And on and and on. And on.
Legal guns. All easily available to the shooters, no matter who bought them.
We need more than gun control.
We are waaaaaaaay beyond the "well regulated militia" thing. We are even beyond the fetish stage.
The guns were all legal. The implication is that the idea of "controlling" guns is pointless in the extreme. We need a stronger tactic.
