@Pinetree0: Just noticed a trend in your comments.

[quote][b]Pinetree0[/b] - If I had compared this thug to a buffalo or bear, would that be "racist" too?[/quote]

Not so much. Try that next time, you Redneck Bigot.

@crankyyankee: At least you tried to offer some solutions.
I'm not sure when, but we are headed for strong gun control like that in England and Canada.
People will be pushed to the point of choosing between civilization and advanced chaos and mayhem.
We cannot go back in time.

@Pinetree0: Yeah, he's a piece of trash, but I'm not fond of racist like you either.

If those were my two kids, as soon as they locked him up I would be posting his bond.
Damn the courts.

How about holding the person who uses the gun, in an illegal way, responsible for their actions?
[/quote]

Yeah, that person too. But so many guns are stolen (read the ABH) that something must be done to hold people accountable that are not securing their weapons.
"Broke into the car and stole a 357 magnum".
Something has to change.

Let the good times roll!
Investors? Millions? Music to a politician's ears.

[quote][b]Farmer GA[/b] -
Sure, there is no way that a criminal could take a gun, then do something to it so that it can't be traced.

Maybe we could hold the person the gun is registered to responsible for their gun.

Medicare is responsible for some the increases in medical cost. Anytime someone has insurance of any kind, the cost of services goes up. Why, because of red tape and regulations? Nope, it's because big pockets are paying the bill, and eveyone involved will stick it to them.
End it? Let's carve about 2/3 of the Military budget out, end welfare to other countries, and then discuss it.

Flood Ins? No one would live in the coastal areas without it. Rich people either, because service and hospitality workers couldn't afford to live anywhere near the coast without the subsidy.
Maybe the states that rake in the tourist dollars should do the subsidizing rather than the feds.

FDIC? Suit me fine to bury my money in a jar and pay with cash. Screw the Banks!

The Republicans and Teabaggers will themselves be all the help the dems need.

Well, maybe they'll get things straightened out in the Middle East pretty fast and prices will go back down.
lol.

[quote][b]snarkydude[/b] - I thought guns were illegal in Chicago! How could this happen?? Criminals can't get guns if they're illegal. That would be against the law! I don't understand.
[/quote]

All of those guns were legally purchased, at least originally. Then, they were either stolen from somebody that thought they could protect themselves and their possessions with it, or they were bought and sold under the table.

If they were registered, we would know exactly where they came from,agree?
You wouldn't have to guess how it happens.

My wife flew into Chicago last night. Said the news there makes Atlanta seem like Mayberry.

Definitely much a do about nothing.
Stop being so paranoid, Teabaggers.

I stick to posting mostly inspirational religous quotes, and Christians against Obama's re-election copy and paste stuff.

As a matter of fact,..ah nevermind.
Maybe he is a tad bit smarter than my shoes, but they definitely have more integrity.

Nothing but steers and ignorant folks in Texas. I've got a pair of shoes that are smarter than Perry.

His Fox News is the propaganda machine that turns impressionable folks into unknowing slaves of the rich.

Obama should have stepped on the throats of the insurance companies and been done with it. But, money talks.

Um, if none of the other countries in that region give a damn, why should we?
Hard to ignore emerging business opportunities, I guess.

Yeah, I have a personalized plate on one of my cars. Just says the year and series. $90 vs $30, or whatever an antique plate cost. I wouldn't even consider the antique plate, just wouldn't do it justice.

[quote][b]Long Sufferer[/b] - I'll agree it was a sick and disgusting act. But life in prison? Now that's just carrying things too damn far. Two to five with lifetime as a sex offender would be appropriate if not overkill. We're trying to teach this woman a lesson not totally destroy her.
[/quote]

Agreed. But at least she got some time, which is more than usually happens when the offender is a female. Must not be a beautiful blonde.

[quote][b]ghostwriter[/b] - The arms of government multiply, grow longer and reach further year after year. It's time to change the way we vote.
[/quote]

We did. This (also) belongs to Bush, but Obama should put an end to it now.
