VA Tech Spokesperson Eating His Words Now!

Guns don't kill people, crazy people do.

If this crazy SOB knows that law-abiding citizens on campus, maybe he never goes on his rampage. And even if he does, someone who's packing would probably cap his ass before he can shoot 10 people, let alone 32.

This is exactly why we need FEWER restrictive gun laws, not more. If you criminalize guns, only criminals will have guns! And of course, crazy people with vendettas.

You're right. Arm everyone. That's the answer. If someone a victim would've had a gun...THAT would've saved everyone!

No. Crazy people with GUNS kill people. Crazy people are just crazy.

Typical for the gun nuts to start politicizing this while the bodies are still warm.

I bet gv10k gets his first woody in years thinking about what the NRA is going to do with this.

Right, assf***, I was "starting to politicize this." As if you couldn't have turned on any mass media outlet in America this evening and heard commentators already calling for stricter gun laws. Because yeah, if this mass-murderer would have known that there were another couple of laws keeping him from carrying his Glocks, that clearly would have made him think twice about shooting 32 people.

Go back to moveon.org and stop polluting letsrun.

great idea.....have college students, frat rats, hot blooded, drinking college kids running around a campus and college town, packing heat...NOT....

Jesus Tapdancing Christ, do you (or anyone with an ounce of intellect) honestly think that allowing college kids to arm themselves is a good idea?!?!

We're talking about 18-22 year olds who can't even clean their own rooms or do their own laundry, who get in violent fights over who can drink the most, and, on one occasion I witnessed, stab another person because he heard a rumor that the guy wanted to date his girlfriend (not that he had made the moves on her....just that he was interested).

College kids are among the smartest and simultaneously the unbelievably stupidest individuals in the country. Lobbying to arm them makes you just as stupid.

You probably never went to college - here's a stats lesson for you more gun laws = less gun crimes. It's a fact Jack.

I think the point people are trying to make RE gun laws is not that people will be scared to cary them for fear of prosecution, but to limit the AVAILABILITY of them. There are people who could be prone to behaving in this manner in many countries, but guns are not so readily available for nut-jobs to use. Do you gun lobbiers believe it is merely a coincidence that so many of these incidents occur in the USA, where guns can be readily attained?

I don't want to go to your college if that's what they're teaching you.

In England, the murder rate went UP after they banned guns.

The 1996 US Justice Dept study has conclude that the robbery rate in England was 1.4 times higher than the USA, the burglary rate 1.7 times higher and assaults 2.3 times higher. Only murder and rape rates were higher in the USA.

Switzerland, which has gun ownership that exceeds the US has a lower murder rate than England. The robbery rate is only 1/3 of England's - and half of all robberies in Switzerland are committed by non-resident foreigners.

would you mind providing a source on that?

Boy, all this wild west talk is making me horny!

What liberals don't understand is that once the second civil war breaks out, they'll need some guns to kill republicans.

Just a note on me being a gun nut. My 19 yr old daughter works at a local stop and rob and gets off at 8:30 pm. Last year a man came in and pulled a gun, she gave him the money..then he said your coming with us. Wrong, he lowered his gun and my girl had her 22 cal up. He ran and I repeat..he ran! Turns out he had kidnapped and killed two years earlier...same type deal. Of course, he was released because the community that put him away were all racists. Right!

Guns are the only thing that keeps America from going communist. The Clintons and the politiclly correct would destroy America and communize us if they could.

if you read philosophy you would know that arming everyone is a step backwards for society.

Right on, man. I totally agree.

Uh... what?

What always cracks me up is the number of high profile liberal anti-gun people who either own guns themselves or have bodyguards packing heat.

The people you liberal sheep get your brainwashing from don't practice what they preach, in anything.
