ARE YOU KIDDIG ME????????????????????????

Total lies and BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have to hit the link to appreciate the story. You will see the photo of the NY State GUN PURCHASE (not CCW) permit for the only shooter that had a legal firearm on him. My count only one of the people in recent rampage attacks was legal with their firearm.

These "journalists" aren't fit to clean toilets.

I think the trick is, but saying had a "permit" the average person assumes that to mean CCW permit.
But the reporter is referring to the Handgun safety permit.

They know this trick well... they just say the word "permit" and every dummy thinks the guy could pack...

the first sentence says it all... this person is a total moron that cannot reason with any mental sophistication.

yes, all the mass murderers were legally entitled to their guns. so is the writer, so is anyone else who hasn't committed a crime yet... SO WHAT?

perhaps we should start locking him up and cutting off his tongue and typing piggies because he may write something someday that will physically harm his wah wah constituents.

it is not just true for guns but anyone in the united states is "entitled" to any number of crimes for their first offense. you can't stop someone's first offense by preemptively removing all their rights, well you can, it's just not legal, moral, ethical or correct.

Here's the incorrect part:

They had more in common than unleashing carnage — nearly every gunman in this monthlong series of mass killings was legally entitled to fire his weapons.

He didn't have the legal right to fire his weapons at people. Targets, sure. Ownership, sure. (I read he was a naturalized US citizen, so he had the same rights as anyone else.) But all of that is largely irrelevant, because nobody has a legal right to shoot strangers.
