So, you'd like to prevent another Newtown shooting...

[M14 Shooter]

An 'assault weapon' ban would not have prevented the Newtown shooting and will not prevent another like it.
A "hi-cap' magazine ban would not have prevented the Newtown shooting and will not prevent another like it.
Universal background checks would not have prevented the Newtown shooting and will not prevent another like it.
Universal gun registration would not have prevented the Newtown shooting and will not prevent another like it.
Universal licensure of gun owners would not have prevented the Newtown shooting and will not prevent another like it.

Given the above - what do you suggest?

Longer sentences for violent criminals and more cops on the streets...that's the best way to address violent crime in general.

If we hope to stop more lunatics before they blow something up, we'll have to make it easier to commit unstable individuals. That won't be easy. The ACLU will be all over any attempts to put crazy people into observation.

The problem with mental health is that it is not really a science. Not enough is known to test properly for it. And I am opposed to just randomly committing people cause you happen to be afraid.

However there are procedures and they should be followed. The problem is they are not. In VA the State had no policy for informing the federal Government of people adjudged to be incompetent. In Newton no system would have prevented him from doing what he did.

Some things just happen and no matter what laws you have it won't be stopped.

Banning guns only effects law abiding citizens, banning magazines only effects law abiding citizens. Criminals and crazies have access through non legal means.

What law will stop a criminal from getting a weapon? What law will stop a crazy person from committing crazy acts? Be specific.

Riiiight...because if you ban firearm accessories, the crazies and criminals will begin obeying the law will therefore not possess those accessories.

 

[Truthmatters]

more stopping to reload means more times to jump the killer.

Its reality

 

[Truthmatters]

Its FACT

Be specific.
