People who are pro 2nd amendment (which I am) will always say if someone wants to kill someone else they will find a way.
This article is scary http://boston.cbslocal.com/2012/07/19/man-arrested-in-connection-with-hepatitis-c-outbreak-at-nh-hospital/
I know movies like The Stand and Twelve Monkeys are fiction but if a guy was crazy enough and had accessibility to some dangerous virus this would be hard to combat. |

u'd kill a lil man or girl maybe, but 40% of the trannys and 80% of males would beat u up with their fist and or shear willpower.
there was an incident when a crazed man committed the first murder in irvine california in over 10 years. he used a samurai sword and chopp'd up a person or two in a supermarket. irvine is a law abiding city that has few guns per capita/ educated people who use their heads and fist to solve problems.
vigilantes would have crowbars and leadpipes. the police would still have pistols and have the edge.
even if u took all the guns off the streets their would be a major revolt!!!!!!!!
it would never happen because guns are pretty awesome to have around in case an invading country like mexico or canada wanted to nail us silly.
the law wouldnt be in effect because it would be in the courts indefinitely for 20 years. a complete limbo.

#6 Posted: 7/27/2012 4:36:09 PM Would do more harm than good.
1) People love guns, and if you put them in prison for owning a gun, when they get out they'll be hardened criminals and gang members.
2) Police always arrive too late. The only thing that can stop a gun rampage is a trained citizen with a concealed firearm.
3) Contraband is very prevalent in this country, so it is a pipe dream to think you can confiscate all the guns

If you made the penalty 10 years in jail if you got caught with one, mabye. But that's never going to happen. |

In other words, if you want to kill people, there are multiple ways of doing it. I actually get it. |

Oblama is still using the word Ässault"rifle. Geeezus - it's not an assault rifle. |

#18 Posted: 7/27/2012 8:38:13 PM How did outlawing alcohol work out?
How is outlawing drugs working out?
Also there are already about as many guns in America as there are people so good luck enforcing a ban. |

james holmes didnt want people to gather in a movie theatre, because he possibly found out they were going to release a biological agent thru the movie cinema system that would be deadly in a matter of days (of course in his deranged mind)
james holmes is the agent carrying a deadly virus, thus he is spitting in the faces of all the guards that give him food at his cell
yes that movie u are quoting is good. |

#21 Posted: 7/27/2012 9:50:23 PM Far as I'm concerned the strong issue is politely asking the CCL holder to carry more often.
Be interesting to see what I assume is a gigantic spike on a poll to see how many of them are strapped constantly after this turd shot up a movie theatre. Colorado is heavily armed right about now by the citizens my assumption.
 911. darn that, handle it.

 Even lil Aurora PD admitted that their 4 minute response time was incredible. 4 minutes is quick but that's 40 people. 4 seconds and I'll sell my guns.
