Re: Connecticut
Why are you addressing me? There was nothing in my last post about medication that I could find.
My last post merely questioned the judgement of the mother keeping weapons around this man...and in fact (according to witnesses so far) taking young Adam to the range to fire them.
Listen, I realize that parents don't always see their children for what they are,but the man did fit a bit of a profile growing up. Even if she was completely blind to that, don't you think there should have been a tiny little voice in the back of her head that piped in "little Gummo is different than the other kids...he seems to be developing the personality of a typical tower killer. Hmmm, maybe it would be wise to not teach him how to fire all these cool guns I have....better safe than sorry as they say"...
Instead,she seemed to have dismissed that little voice in her head with a "Naaaaaah,...he's harmless...he's my little angel. Here kid, blow away these targets...it's fun."
She payed for that mistake with her life. Unfortunately so did two handfuls of small children and three lady's - one of whom was a brave ,pretty young lady who will never get to marry and have kids of her own...Oh Yeah, all of this a week before Christmas.Nice.
Well, we all make mistakes don't we?

Re: Connecticut
Outlaw theft and only outlaws will steal. Outlaw murder and only outlaws will murder. Also there will be fewer thieves, fewer murderers and there will be a legal framework to curtail the activities the thieves and murderers. That's the whole point. Let's stop enabling murderers. It's time to significantly regulate firearms.

Re: Connecticut
Yup, worked so well with drugs. I guess sarcasm is lost on you.
"Outlaw theft and only outlaws will steal. Outlaw murder and only outlaws will murder. Also there will be fewer thieves, fewer murderers..."
You're a riot. Seriously.
Your top cop is already working on the "legal framework".
Who knew the Nazi SS was part of the Oblabla admin...? From the illegal gunrunner (across international borders no less) in charge....
Attorney General Secretly Granted Gov. Ability to Develop and Store Dossiers on Innocent Americans
In a secret government agreement granted without approval or debate from lawmakers, the U.S. attorney general recently gave the National Counterterrorism Center sweeping new powers to store dossiers on U.S. citizens, even if they are not suspected of a crime, according to a news report.
Earlier this year, Attorney General Eric Holder granted the center the ability to copy entire government databases holding information on flight records, casino-employee lists, the names of Americans hosting foreign-exchange students and other data, and to store it for up to five years, even without suspicion that someone in the database has committed a crime, according to the Wall Street Journal, which broke the story.
Whereas previously the law prohibited the center from storing data compilations on U.S. citizens unless they were suspected of terrorist activity or were relevant to an ongoing terrorism investigation, the new powers give the center the ability to not only collect and store vast databases of information but also to trawl through and analyze it for suspicious patterns of behavior in order to uncover activity that could launch an investigation.

Re: Connecticut
You're afraid of the gestapo! Permit me to cackle like a bean-dip-for-brains internet troll: HAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
Now let's see what material items we've outlawed and how well it's worked:
DDT, a few farmers might still have some stockpiled, but it's no longer threatening populations of wild birds and amphibians (a few other pesticides should probably be banned as well).
Surface to air missile launchers. Yeah, a few collectors in the U.S. may have some stowed away in their basements, but very few dare use them.
Methamphetamine. Yeah, like alcohol during the prohibition, it's all over the place. Like alcohol, it's easy to cook up with a few items you buy at your pharmacy. And like alcohol, there's a dopamine driven demand. Like alcohol, it's addictive. Unlike alcohol, almost everyone, after a fairly small exposure period, becomes addicted.
So what do we learn? Some substances can be successfully controlled and others spread like wildfire. Some substances require significant technology to construct, and some can be cooked up over your kitchen sink. Some items we can walk away from without turning back, and others are universally addictive.
Without doubt, semi-automatic weapons enable murderers...murderers of children. We've seen it happen this week. We saw it happen a hundred times over the last two decades. The NRA enable murderers. Anyone who stands in the way of reasonable firearm regulation enables murderers.

Re: Connecticut
Very good speech by our President just now.

Re: Connecticut
I agree. Obama is often very good at these moments, like his speech after the Tuscon shooting.
Fred, if I am remembering correctly, you've self-identified as conservative. I have to say I have always found your views to be balanced and well reasoned. And there aren't many conservatives who have a good word about Obama.

Re: Connecticut
I agree too, it was a fine speech and every bit the measure of the man I believe Obama to be.
But is it empty rhetoric or will your President have the courage of his convictions to seize the mood of the moment and finally start the long, painful march to end America's gun madness?
Our friend Beandipshit is clearly an idiot and a malicious one at that, but there's no doubt that he articulates a widely-shared view in the US, where the right to own guns is seemingly more important to many than the right of innocent children not to be murdered. And the mental health aspect is a complete red herring. Sane or insane, this would not have happened if his mother hadn't kept assault weapons around the house. End of.

Re: Connecticut
Thank you very much.
His views might differ from mine in a fiscal sense...but he's often excellent at what he does...plus my social views were probably never that conservative in a National sense...though locally they might have been (I do live in N.Y.C.).
I also realize that because of my time on this planet (I'm fifty),my experiences through the years have changed my views many times over. This will often happen to most people unless they are static robots.
Also he is my President.
I didn't vote for him...
but he is my President...and though it's not that important -for the most part -I'm quite comfortable with him as our leader.
I wasn't born here and although I know it sounds corny to some of the cynics among us..I love this country. Like many of us - I didn't always have the greatest experiences here..but that's just life and I love it nonetheless.
...and I think we often do a pretty good job at choosing a President...all things considered
...that's my opinion anyway.
I'm rambling anyway.thanks Odelay.
