I think every person who thinks it is right to take a piece of peoples lives away because they have a problem with spirngs, chemicals, metal tubes, lead, and hammers deserves nothing short of having their own freedoms taken away. ?

I take pleasure in seeing the gun control argument fail miserably. Now how about a refund to all the people who have been fined and sent to jail for asserting their second amendment right?

You simply cannot wish that the arguments for gun control are proven wrong - you can only argue that the 2nd amendment is more important than what may happen because of it.

Gun ban will never solve this kind of human's madness, why ?
If its not a gun, then it could be a chainsaw, or a molotov coctail, or a 5 feet scytes, or an artisanal flamethrower.
When you are crazy enough to kill poeple, anyway is good.

yeah quite right. chicago is a crappy example for this issue. there is no gun control. you could just drive out of the city, buy a gun and drive back in. that's pretty stupid. gun control can't be half arsed. and your second amendment is outdated and quite sillyOriginally posted by jack merchant
The only thing Chicago proves is that in a city where anyone can move in or out and enforcement is impossible, a gun ban won't work. The same argument may apply to the entire USA, I don't know. But enforceability is quite different from desirability, and the fact that people like this can get their hands on a gun in a city like Chicago proves diddly squat about the desirability of gun control.
However, it does provide a lurid illustration of what happens when people like this can get access to guns. But who knows, he might have enjoyed himself.
