Right on cue, it’s the antigun whores.
Instead of reporting on the obvious merit of having armed people in the church who could stop this murderer, the Denver Post recycles the same old anti-gun mantra that will never stop the law-breaker bent on murder. They will never learn.
Bet you 10 bux that the shooter didn’t have either one of those model rifles.
I can only pray the Dumocrats will take this (expletive deleted) advice. We nailed them good the last time they tried this idiocy, I’m ready for round two. Bring it on.
Well duh! Notice the moron didn't say crime went down. The stupidity of these people never ceases to amaze.
They don’t even consider that the weapon used to *stop* the massacre was also “an assault weapon” under the stupid old law.
“Frankly, we can’t figure out the benefits of having assault weapons easily available. Law enforcement officers universally agree that people wanting self protection don’t carry assault weapons. But criminals do.”
This is an outright lie.
Yeah, there's that whole 2nd Amendment of the US Constitution thing, you know.
Well, they are basically shooting off their mouths and showing how little they know.
Just ask them what gun is responsible for the most gun deaths in America.
SKS?
AK-47?
45 caliber?
bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzztttt....... (game show loser buzzer)
Answer: 22 caliber.
And unless you’re like a leprechaun or something, that’s not exactly an assault weapon.
Honestly, between the events in Colorado and Omaha, this sentiment is probably reflected in much of the voting population. Face it, most Americans don't own "assault" rifles and have no desire to. Furthermore, people are really sick and tired of disturbed young men marching in to a public place armed to the teeth and taking out as many innocent people as they can before putting a bullet into their heads.
That being said, I fail to see what a ban on assault weapons will accomplish --other than putting another "feel good" law on the books. Even during the Clinton ban, I still saw plenty of assault weapons in the local gun stores.
Finally, when you have a depressed kid who has a plan to kill himself and "become famous" with a body count, preventing these crimes are virtually impossible. Mass killings followed by suicide are rare but they are not a new phenomenon nor are they uniquely American.

Those aren’t assault weapons at all.
But here is one:

By the way, can someone tell me how to post a picture in the body of a comment? I can never figure it out
Why don’t the “police” turn in THEIR assault rifles? They just use them for mass killing sprees like Waco and Ruby Ridge. Now is the time for real Americans to put the 2nd Amendment FIRST!
Yep...the Brady Bunch is out in force on this one, and the one in Omaha.
And, it is just such incidents as these that make RKBA so important in our society. LEO can’t prevent crime...they can’t defend and protect you (regardless of what they paint on their cars). The primary responsibility for your safety is yours and yours, alone.
I’m sick to death of these bleeding heart, knee jerk liberals trampling on my God given rights. Time for them all to grab a nice warm mug of STFU and settle in for the night. The rest of us will bail out their sorry butts when the excrement hits the rotating air movement device...again.
Not to worry. The Post is in a full stall, spin to follow...ending in crash. It’s normally two or three days behind Drudge now...and the difference is widening. The writers are clownish, and can be relied upon to oppose guns and support illegals.
Overlooking the obvious.

I still remember from 40 years ago when the Denver Post only wanted to ban “saturday night specials” like the Ruger .22 semi auto pistol.
Yes, they considered the Ruger pistol to be a “saturday night special”.
Such extraordinary firepower is not meant for hunting animals or target shooting. We see only one other purpose...
damn near every sentence is a flat out lie except this one.
and exactly one low powered handgun wielded by a God fearing woman stopped the gutless coward in his tracks...
