In reply to the discussion: A person capable of shooting a five year old eleven times is beyond gun control. [View all]EOTE
(13,409 posts)132. Get this through your head, I'm NOT DODGING ANYTHING.
It's a simple question that is nothing but baiting. Fuck, it's like dealing with an infant. I said it's SICK to base our laws upon anything that Mexico has done because it would be completely inapplicable. I never said once that Mexico's gun laws should be changed for Mexico. Comprende?

For fuck's sake, is ANY OF THIS getting through to you?

The gun he used at that range will over-penetrate a lot. A shotgun would not as much.
