The Problem With "Common Sense" Gun Control

[Independent thinker]

The problem with "common sense" gun control legislation is that you don't need guns to commit violence. And, bad people don't obey the laws, only law abiding people obey the laws. Most anyone can get their hands on guns, whether you are legally able to or not. If for some reason you can't get a gun when you're not supposed to have a gun, something else, such as Molotov cocktails or any other number of other things, will do just fine anyway. Case in point:

The suspect in Sunday’s Molotov cocktail attack in Boulder, Colorado, tried to buy a handgun in November but was denied, according to the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.

Mohamed Soliman -- who was arrested after allegedly throwing Molotov cocktails during a pro-Israel demonstration, injuring 12 -- tried to buy the weapon on Nov. 22, 2024, but was denied based on National Instant Criminal Background Check System

Something as piddly as not being able to buy a gun didn't stop this guy.

Boulder suspect's application for concealed handgun permit was denied

But ya gotta admit his range is limited and if you're running he is more than likely going to set himself on fire

The cops should have dropped him like a bad habit.

I already practice "common sense gun control": Don't shoot yourself or someone else, either accidentally or on purpose.

But I will make exceptions for someone else if the need arises.

News reports he wanted guns, but it was a hassle because he's undocumented and such. Yeah the OP is dead on, pencils don't misspell words as they say.

What a scumbag fuck suck fuck. I read a headline a Holocaust survivor was one of its victims, and I don't have the nerve to open it.

It's concerning a Muslim scumbag pulled terror on us.....Guess FBI and such missed one, there's always room for improvement.

Not in my world. He gets the clean room first, perhaps he has affiliations. Then we go Epstein on him

The problem with "common sense" gun control legislation...

... is there's no sense at all to be found in unnecessary, ineffective, and unconstitutional gun laws.

You know - the laws supported by the anti-gun lunatics on the left.
