Gun Control thread (merged many)

[Wolferz]

Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it everywhere and applying all the wrong remedies.

Groucho Marx


Legislation to ban high capacity magazines will do little to nothing to curb the next murderous lunatic.

It's just the typical DC dog and pony show that uses fear to push an agenda for disarming the people. Once that is completed the next step won't be far behind.

More stringent background checks at all levels of retail points might curb the insanity. I think the more logical approach would be registration and penalties for irresponsible ownership. Newtown was the result of irresponsible ownership plain and simple. It cost the owner her life too. It doesn't matter what remedy Congress attempts to pass because you can't fix stupid.
