The special stock the guy used that enable him to make his semi-auto guns to act like a fully automatic gun should be banned. World is going to hell in a hand basket. People should arm themselves... Government cannot legislate a fix for evil people.... Crazy and or evil do what they do... fly jets into buildings... make presure cookers into bomd... drive trucks into crowds.... we have no heard the last of what evil will do. Everyone who can should arm themselves and get the propper training to use their guns.... There were no NFL players that ran towards the shooting. It was the police and regular civilians who stepped up. It was a security guard who stopped, or slowed down the shooter... I don't know if he was armed ... but none the less he was not a police officer who rose to the occation. I don't know how many guns are too many. I also don't know how many rounds are too many. I don't suffer the too many guns or too much amo ... I do know people with alot of guns and a lot of amo... not concerned what they have or what they'll do with it... In fact if shit ever hit the fan you'd want them in your corner. Solutions are not simple or easy... instead of playing with the rights of legal gun owners... Euthanizing crazy people, just incase they do something in the future.... I mean proactively euthanizing people that might someday do it would be a better defence. Even better, look at the current stats and find out who uses guns illegally, taget those people in those areas and jail all people, regardless of race or religion, and give them manditory minimums for using guns in crimes or if you were/are a criminal cought with a gun... U just go to jail for a looooooong time. That'll fix some of the peoplem... Jails would be full... but most of the people who shouldn't have a gun would be where we could keep an eye on them. Most of what I said was toungue-in-cheek ... but its would be a way better solution than gun control.... BTW, just heard that Chicago has over 500 peope dead and the year is not even over yet... Chicogo has gun control measures in place... Hmmmm interesting... Just saying...
