      Re: Days Since Last Shooting II

      Point of order:

      It appears the LV shooter was losing/lost a lot of money went nuts.
      The NYC driver did it for religious reasons.

      Different root causes for the attacks. I don't care what color you are. It's WHY you did what you did that concerns me. So, the racial comparisons between LV and NY bother me. It's bullsh* reasoning.

        A gun sale from a dealer requires an FFL (federal firearms license) for the transaction. Plus the buyer needs to be run through NICS (by the FFL) to complete the purchase.

        If the transaction happened illegally the provider should be charged as an accessory.

          Yes. All the yes.

            Accessory to capital murder. Texas.
            I’m pretty sure I know what the punishment is.

              You keep saying this, please back it up with some facts. Firearm homicides are way down from the 90s.

                Back up your statement. I see the stats from Chi-town, the mass shootings (which are defined as 4+ killed at one instance, that's the FBI definition), etc.

                How are firearm homicides defined? Per capita? Per shooting (killing vs injured), how?

                  It's too late to argue this for me, so here's the stats on mass shootings and homicide rate. Y'all have fun.

                      Because we want more people taking the law into their own hands???

                      Based on this post, we want more people armed instead of less ways for people to kill other people. Which means MORE of these incidents.

                      Facts- you've got to be kidding me. You are going to pretend that the fact that he was shot by someone other than a police officer that it was a good thing??? Pathetic. I don't see the need for mass vigilantes roaming the country.

                        How about a culture of LESS GUNS??? And less bowing down to the NRA/gun industry as if they are a church of something.

                        When you have the weapons, the want for violence is higher than without weapons.

                            How fast can you empty that magazine?

                            Both can easily be addressed. Except for mindless people like you who want to have unlimited gun access. So that you can shoot back.

                                That would lead me to believe he would not be legal to possess a firearm much less purchase one.

                                So where’d he get it? The full force of the law should find and prosecute that.
                                Good thing we have guns around that people like this can get. Regardless if it was legal or not.

                                But we will NEVER actually do anything. Ever. Not until many of you take your heads out of licking the private parts of the gun industry and the NRA and realize that there are actual reasonable things that can be actually done.

                                Instead, we just get the same old- bad people will be bad. Talk about a predictable response.
