I've seen reports that this guy was carrying as many as 6 guns during the shooting. Unless you're in the Matrix, that seems like more of a hindrance to mass murder than anything. How many did he actually use?

To be fair, I'm curious about the logistics of carrying six guns at once too. Duffel bag or something?

Should probably also do a better job regulating people who think regulating crazy people is some affront to the constitution. Those people are for more dangerous to society than your run of the mill crazy person.

but what are the controls? have you no fear of the government abusing the ability to designate a person crazy and take their arsenal?

I'm fine with making crazy people take a course/test to get a license to own a firearm (along with everyone else). You know, like we do with cars.

But like, the guy that shot up the black church shouldn't have been allowed to purchase a gun, but he did because the background check took too long. How are we going to diagnose and keep track of "crazy people" when we can't even search criminal records in a timely manner?

I thought this was a nice piece:

Quote

Daniel Webster, a public health expert at Johns Hopkins University, notes that in 1999, the government listed the gun stores that had sold the most weapons later linked to crimes. The gun store at the top of the list was so embarrassed that it voluntarily took measures to reduce its use by criminals — and the rate at which new guns from the store were diverted to crime dropped 77 percent.

But in 2003, Congress barred the government from publishing such information.

Why is Congress enabling pipelines of guns to criminals?

Public health experts cite many ways we could live more safely with guns, and many of them have broad popular support.

A poll this year found that majorities even of gun-owners favor universal background checks; tighter regulation of gun dealers; safe storage requirements in homes; and a 10-year prohibition on possessing guns for anyone convicted of domestic violence, assault or similar offenses.

We should also be investing in “smart gun” technology, such as weapons that fire only with a PIN or fingerprint. We should adopt microstamping that allows a bullet casing to be traced back to a particular gun. We can require liability insurance for guns, as we do for cars.

This was not a rhetorical question. There has been a lot of reference to the number of guns he had, and I'm curious to know what role they played in the shooting. I can't find it reported anywhere as to how many guns were actually used.

Having more guns is a hindrance to mass murder

I would think that you could do a lot more damage with one or two than trying to carry six at the same time.

star seed 7 · « **Reply #3413 on:** October 05, 2015, 12:56:41 PM »

Having more bullets is a super hindrance I bet

star seed 7 · « **Reply #3414 on:** October 05, 2015, 12:58:06 PM »

I really want to commit mass murder, but I just have this massive collection of guns that get in the way

THANKS OBAMA

it does seem like it would be a hindrance. you don't see professional killers (soldiers, police, hitmen, etc) carrying more than 1 or 2 guns. 3 max. seems like a total amateur move.

DQ12 · « **Reply #3416 on:** October 05, 2015, 01:07:36 PM »

How do you even carry six guns at once? Strap on holsters on every limb and two in the hands?

star seed 7 · « **Reply #3417 on:** October 05, 2015, 01:09:05 PM »

Depends on the type of gun

i bet he was like c43 and his pinch hitters. he knew he was only going to use the alex gordon gun, but he couldn't bear the thought of the orlando and colon guns missing out on the big event.

Die hard taught us you don't even need holsters, just some tape and a swearty/bloody back

Yeah, you and others have made it abundantly clear that you prefer to have murdering psychopaths walking the streets.

Im sure your solution of forcing all people to sift through a bureaucracy of multiple choice tests, "training" and fingerprinting will stop the few psychopaths from mass murder. What psychopath is going to jump through those hoops, amirite???? If these lunatics have demonstrated anything, it's an unwillingness to plan and prepare. #libtard

i have a friend IRL who got up super early on black friday one year and got an AR-15 at Cabela's (for example):

I don't think you have to get up super early to purchase an AR-15.
