One Paranoid Gun Nut Equals 3 Dead Cops.

[Catty1]

blue, regarding part of your siggy: There are over five hundred and fifty million firearms in worldwide circulation. Thats one firearm for every twelve people on the planet. The only question is, how do we arm the other eleven.

How do we SAFELY arm the other 11 - making sure they are trained AND mentally fit?

This is an honest question, not a bash.

Give them blanks until they learn to safely handle LIFE!

One nut + gun - Covina CA - 9 dead - family
One nut + gun - Cathage NC - 8 dead - strangers
One nut + gun - Oakland CA - 4 dead - police
One nut + gun - Binghamton NY - 14 dead - strangers
One nut + gun - Alabama - 11 dead - family and strangers
One nut + gun - Pittsburgh PA - 3 dead - cops
One nut + gun - Graham WA - 5 dead - family children

Seven nuts - 54 dead and it is only April.

What senseless, senseless tragedy. Whether the guns were acquired legally (most were) or not...those 54 people are not any less dead.

How many more?

That's why I posted this story. Seems like we have had way too many
stories in the news on gun violence & deranged people who have legal
guns in their house. I believe way to many people are able to purchase
only because they don't have a history of mental illiness. I think that part
of the law should be changed.

Everyone who buys a gun would be required to pass a mental health
test. (given by licenced professional).
