If anything, legislation is going in the opposite direction: Tennessee is passing a law allowing guns to be carried in public accomodations.

Cars kill more each day than Cho killed.

Cars aren’t Constitutionally protected.

Whatever the rest of the world thinks, whatever Rosie O’Donnell thinks,...

When the finest minds you can put forward on this debate
can't win you ought to take a hint and just forget it.

Howie, Americans believe they should be able to defend themselves, rather than depend on the government, which clearly showed its limits in the VT case, huh? Properly understood, this tragedy should be the catalyst for a renewed push to repeal the antiselfdefense laws in place today. Shall issue concealed carry should be the law of the land - Atlantic to the Pacific. Disarming the good guys never was a good idea bud. That bad guys don’t give a rat about laws anyway. Further, it should be easier to put insane people in confinement. And yes, that will cost money, and no it won’t be pretty. Consider the alternatives Howie.

It seemed to me that the gruesome tragedy at Virginia Tech might prompt a new wave of legislation—not just talk but legislation—to limit the sale of handguns in America.

Hey Howard.

Virginia has laws to limit the sale of handguns, you can only buy one a month.

Obviously it doesn’t work.

while I must admit I loathe this weasel of mice,I’ll bet he could not even hold a .22 pistol up high enuf to aim level. Hell this anemic spew probably has to work in shifts so his glasses don’t crush his face.

As a result, Sabato said, access to guns is easy—as the shooter in Blacksburg demonstrated. "Hell, I’ve got a clean record, only a few traffic tickets, so I could go out to Clark Brothers"—a famous gun emporium that always does a brisk business.

This is the author's summation and the point he lays his thesis on. It is false. Cho did break the law when he purchased his guns. He had been deemed a danger to himself and others after court ordered phychiatric evaluation and prescribed an anti-depressant. The gun seller did nothing wrong in selling him guns though as this information was not available to him through the national database. HIPPA privacy laws prevented that info, which had legal implications, from going into the database.

Fineman shot his own point in the foot.

Hey Howard try this on for size. The victims never even had the OPTION to even try to defend themselves. Your sick thinking helped kill them. How do you feel now a$$wipe.

Rosie ought to be asked why there’s never been a slaughter like this at West Point or the Naval Academy at Annapolis? Or at any city police academy? Murderers like this guy quake in fear of armed people.

Apparently not easy enough. 32 of the victims did not access to a firearm (when they needed it).
