So dad may have knowingly given a gun to a felon, and if thats the gun that was used, would be charged as such, and face up to 10 yrs in prison. If he owned another gun prior to the felony, he'd be allowed to keep it, which Im not sure I like the idea of. Im pretty sure prosecutors could make the case dad knew about the felony. It's very strange. When I first heard the news they were saying he used a semi-automatic, now trying to confirm that they "don't know" what gun he used. WTF?

ok neck so you are right. The guy had a pending felony charge and should not have owned a pistol. I stand corrected but pleade spare me the pedstal comments as I am just having a conversation here with folks. Calm down its just talk So maybe find out about what you're "having a conversation" about first, before having it? Just a thought.

The lack of natural affection and decency in this country is appalling. For once, I have to agree with you. i don't know why it's so hard to be decent and respectful.

And you are not necessarily right here. You cant say that if a legally armed citizen was in that situation that he or she could not possibly defend himself. Thats a glawed argument. Maybe he could...maybe he couldnt but I sure would prfer to have that option if it was me Thats where I land on the issue too. Id rather have a 5% change than 0% chance. and the truth is you have WAY more than a 5% chance. Ive watched zilliins of utube videos and once the second gun gets introduced almost immediately the first get scampers and retreats.

He could easily have done this with a revolver. They said it was a 45 so it was not a revolver

So lets be real here. Outside of an outright ban on guns AND confiscation (you need the confiscation part b.c there are 300 million of them in this country) what "sensible" (the left loves that word) gun laws were going to prevent this?
The answer is none.
Criminals are criminals b.c they break the law. He obtained that gun illegally and hopefully his father is put on the stake next to him.
Anybody talking about gun laws here is being disingenuous. Unless you support a ban and confiscation you shouldn't be asking for more laws b.c they are useless. A national registry sounds like something that may help but I would need to know the details before I supported something like that.

Exactly Take away guns and what prevents this kid from walking into the church and using some simple pipe bomb made from shit under the kitchen sink instead? Some people are just fucked in the head. Has nothing to do with guns.

All guns should be banned. Existing guns should be confiscated by the Government. Failure to comply should result in internment of no less than 10 years in a State reeducation camp. If you value your penis analogue gun more than our collective safety and well being, you belong in a a gulag.
Citizens should also have to comply with mandatory state psych exams, to weed out the crazy violent racists like that boy in SC.

Sadly its just a fact of modern life now so expect it now and then It's a fact of modern American life. And Brooklynjet's post described a solution which ten states and DC already have in place.

If gun control equals more violence, why do countries with stricter laws have less violent crime?
