The world is finally starting to respect America again. The joke was Obama and his "leading from behind." The folks that I spoke to overseas thought that was puzzling, confusing and sometime hilariously funny. |

Since it was not an assault rifle, it was perfectly okay for a deranged person to walk around with it loaded and be able to fire 50 bullets quickly. |

[QUOTE=Guest]No common sense with these gun laws. Get battle field ready weapons off the streets as much as humanly possible. And screen mentally ill people for gun ownership in the future and have locks on guns put on by sane family members
From February 28 .[/QUOTE] E"President Trump signed a measure into law Tuesday that rescinds an Obama-era rule aimed at blocking gun sales to certain mentally ill people. The GOP-majority Senate passed the bill by a 57-43 margin earlier this month, following a House vote to overturn the rule. The Obama administration policy "would have required the Social Security Administration to report the records of some mentally ill beneficiaries to the FBI's National Instant Criminal Background Check System," as The Two-Way has reported. "Those who have been deemed mentally incapable of managing their financial affairs — roughly 75,000 people — would have been affected by the rule." It was strongly opposed by the National Rifle Association, and as NPR's Jessica Taylor reported, "Republicans argued it infringed upon Second Amendment rights by denying due process."

The SKS carbine has a 10 round magazine (it would be legal even in California!), it is not considered an "assault rifle". Not to say Hodgkinson, or anyone else, could not have numerous magazines for any rifle in their possession (shows how stupid the California law on magazine capacity is). I feel Moron Maureen made a emotional basket case post that was not factual. I believe those type of comments negatively influence other people that know nothing about guns. I don't think gun control should be implemented by people that know nothing about guns. We don't need more stupid gun laws, we need a change in culture. We need to stop giving these nut jobs the news coverage they desire (they want it enough, that they are willing to give their own lives to get it) and replace it with the media and the population of this country deeming the nut jobs as the cowards and losers they truly are. |

Ask yourself, if it had been a right wing , Sean Hannity watching, person shooting Democrats, what would the media be doing?
Be honest. |

Most STATES (if not all) screen for mental illness on gun purchase documents...I don't believe Hodgkinson was deemed mentally ill by any doctor. Obviously the guys actions demonstrate he is a nut job. Most STATES have laws that firearms must be stored in a lockable cabinet or trigger lock must be employed when not in use...but some overlook the law (I guess they could compare it to driving over the speed limit). Again, we don't need more stupid gun laws - we need to change the culture to; it is a cowardly and loser act to attack unarmed people. Don't give the perpetrator the news coverage that he desired so much he was willing to give his life for it. |
