Are folks who passed background checks, and folks who have carry permits committing crimes with guns?

Rhetorical question.

We forget that many liberal states like NJ, CA, NY etc bring in more illegals etc under illegal sanctuary policies. That gives them a gerrymandered USA population of illegitimate political representation and power in Congress. It takes from conservative states that don’t pull these manipulations and will give us gun control if we allow it.

I'm sure those present at that Center would've made fine kapos in the 1930's and 40's.

What a moron - reminds me of LTG Russel Honore referring to libtards in general, although directly addressing the MEDIA

What happen to the days “every Jew, with a 22”? Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.

Love that photo on your homepage - Samuel Whittemore is one of my favorite Americans. It is because of ornery, independent real men like him that we are free.

Poor bastard must be spinning at about 10,000 RPM in his grave as we speak, given the decadence and stupidity in our society today.

Because one is protected by the modern penumbras and emanations of the Constitution while the other is an archaic relic of a time long past.
(Honestly, the Judiciary is IMO the most lawless of the three branches; they spout of logical nonsense wrapped in legal-sounding words and bludgeon the people with Muh Authorita! and You aren't a Judge/Lawyer, so you're an inferior! attitudes.)

More "Gun Control", yeah, that's the answer ! .. NOT !
At what point will the gun control advocates acknowledge that criminals violate the law..
That's why they are criminals .

Oh, it most certainly is the answer… but the question is something along the lines of what's the best way to start another civil war in the United States.

Think about the term “gun violence”. I’ve never met a VIOLENT gun. I’ve met some violent people. And THEY will, if disposed to become killers, find ways to kill! Would you also prohibit sale of materials like diesel fuel, ammonium nitrate and steel pipe and fittings - ALL necessary to the functioning of a modern society and innocent enough alone but - as demonstrated by muslim morons - capable of killing hundreds at a time in an instant?
The FBI COULD have kept this idiot in Florida away from his guns BUT THEY WERE TOO BUSY to even INTERVIEW HIM???
And ask yourself WHY - in this highly computerized culture - our various law enforcement agencies DO NOT share background information with one another? Am I paranoid to think that perhaps these sad murders of innocents aid in advancing some totalitarian agenda as they attempt to whip otherwise intelligent people into a frenzy to herd them in a direction they wish them to go? Look up Hegelian Dialectic for starters. There are forces at work in the world today that pay no heed to what most of us consider rules of civilized behavior. They are only guided by what advances their agenda. Does the old phrase “You can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs” come to mind.
Some quotes to ponder:
“A free people should not only be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might abuse them, WHICH WOULD INCLUDE THEIR OWN GOVERNMENT.” That from George Washington!

And the late DEMOCRAT Senator and presidential candidate Hubert Humphery offered this on the topic:
“The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against
arbitrary government, one more safeguard against the tyranny
which now appears remote in America, but which historically
has proved to be always possible.” 
(Ed. Comment: Heavens, how the Democrats have changed!)

And consider the IRONY that the 4th Estate (which has largely morphed into a 5TH COLUMN) always raises the false argument that the Founders never envisioned the advent of weapons like the AR15 and other modern arms. Those 56 men were students of history and the knew well the failings of human nature. They understood that the Constitutional economic and political system they sought to leave as their legacy would produce abundance and liberty for more people than any in history. They ALSO knew that it would spawn advances in technology that would some day make the physical artifacts common in THEIR day the relics they have become in ours. THAT INCLUDED WEAPONS of all sorts!
Now here’s the irony: If one applies to the Second Amendment the media’s claim that ordinary citizens “...the people..” today should ONLY be allowed to possess unrifiled, muzzle loaded flintlock muskets, that “logic” would limit THEM to writing today’s latest “fake news” by dipping quill pens into ink wells and scribbling on parchment!
And for those who still believe that the media are benign innocents simply “journalizing” events here, I’m compelled to add this from Mark Twain:
“Do not fear the enemy, for your enemy can only take your life. It is far better that you fear the media, for they will steal your HONOR.  That awful power, the public opinion of a nation, is created in America by a horde of ignorant, self-complacent simpletons who failed at ditching and shoemaking and fetched up in journalism on their way to the poorhouse.”

Let me wrap this with a fact MOST humans find so disturbing that they refuse to confront it: MOST OF THE HUMANS KILLED OVER HISTORY WERE MURDERED BY GOVERNMENTS.
It’s called DEMOCIDE and 260 MILLION people died at the hands of a government in just the 20th century.
And THAT is why those of us who still possess critical thinking skills and have families STILL outnumber those who repeatedly call for steps toward the ultimate goal of the left: Total disarmament of this population.

Well stated Dick and I'm in total agreement with you.

I also believe that the democrat party has been very comfortable seeing these school massacres occur as a means to further their gun-grabbing agenda. Amazing, isn't it? They would rather see children slaughtered in our schools so as to give them fodder for their gun control agenda, then to allow schools to arm-up and really protect our kids.

Just another reason why they are a demonic bunch.
