Because people make their own coke/meth/heroin and kidnap their own child prostitutes. That argument may have flown 20 years ago - but this is the Internet age.
None of this stuff is difficult any longer.
Its a lot more difficult than buying a gun.
I disagree; and I'm not sure you're aware of just how common psychopathic tendencies are. Most professional athletes & successful business owners would qualify as a psychopath based off of their behavior towards achieving whatever goal they've focused their minds on. Not all psychopaths have criminal intent.
I'm completely aware of that psychopaths are some of the most successful people in our society, listened to a number of stories on it when that one dude wrote his book on it. I just don't think that all of the mass murderers are psychopaths. I think there are a number of potential disorders that could be a cause. I think if you make it harder to commit mass homicide, it will happen less. I also find it hard to believe that you think it is easier to build a bomb capable of blowing up 26 people than killing 26 people with a gun.
Who said anything about building a bomb? I said you can get anything you want anymore - meaning you can buy a ready to blow bomb.
Also, ftr, anything more than 4 people killed qualifies as "mass homicide"
Someone above tried to make the statement that Europe doesn't have a bomb problem - when in fact they do. Maybe if guns weren't illegal there, they wouldn't have a bombing problem, but a mass shooting problem. They clearly think bombs are easier to get than guns. Hasn't slowed their overall violence down from the levels they've always been at.
I'd like to bring this up again without anyone ignoring it, but legislating strict gun control will create more criminals. Not just by redrawing the line so that some people are already across it, but by providing the proper motivation for becoming criminals.
This is a violence issue. Gun restrictions are violence. More violence does not solve violence.
