    Can't call what happened a conspiracy yet, but if you live as long as I and saw what I saw- you'd realize that in life there is more coincidences then consistent patterns.

      Little of both?

      Vote for pro-gun candidates, or lose your rights, and the rights of future generations. That's it. The end.

        It's hard not to wonder what's going on when all these killings start occuring at the same time we get a anti-gun administration.

          I am sure that the anti's do a secret little dance in their head every time one of these events happen, it fits so well into their agenda it would seem to be a conspiracy when a few occur in such a short period of time. However, I vote for coincidence.

              The common denominator seen in a majority of the recent shootings is job loss and being distraught financially. None of which a new AWB would address.

                Much like other events (which I will not name for fear of being banned to the Tin Foil Room), I like to call these events "Convenient Coincidences".

                  I don't think its either one of them. I think that there's a lot of shootings that go on, especially if officers are killed. The media is just hyping up the storm.

                    Coincidence.

                    There are so many stressed-out people running around loose that some of them are bound to pick up a gun and go to town - "Hey World! Look at Me!"
                    The way some gunshop clerks spout off, you'd think that they invented gunpowder and the repeating rifle, and sat on the Supreme Court as well.

                        Not a conspiracy or a coincidence. Its a result of the hard times this country is in, and people acting desperate or crazy.

                          Unless its an act of god it's a conspiracy

                            I think that Obama and his administration have told the press, "You'll get extra points if you make a big deal out of any gun crimes."

                            And the economy has done the rest.

                              Bad economy/being fired/unemployment/economic uncertanty seems to be the most common denominator in all the recent shootings.
