Find me a story of this happening in the past six months from anywhere else in the first world.This is a largely American phenomenon. (not exclusively, but our rates of frequency outstrip any other 1st world country out there).Did this kid get his guns from the black market?Nope, legally bought:The weapons were bought from two local stores of national chains, Gander Mountain Guns and Bass Pro Shop, beginning in May, law enforcement officials told NBCSorry, but we have to lock down firearms in this country. We are too crazy as a nation for them to be available to anyone not willing to buy them from cops.
Canada, but that is not why I am commenting here.While I feel it should be harder for people to own, carry, sell guns, this was a well thought out planned attack. He knew what he was doing. He was going to get his hands on these guns. He knew how to cause a confusion. You won't hear it on the news, but this was a Cimemark, which all the Cimemarks I have been in im LA has a no gun/carry policy. What does Columbine, VA Tech, Ohio School, this movie theater have in common? They all occured in no gun zones where law bidding citizens follow the rules.We just hear of an elderly man with a CCP stopping an armed robbery in Florida this week. It may have been a big media driven story if those two went into the internet cafe and shot as many people as they could.
