Who's To Blame?

Ted Kennedy's car has killed more people than my gun. Maybe we need a Kennedy Control bill.
This argument is silly on all accounts. But let's look at this in generic terms, of gun control and vehicle control. In some states, anyone with a pulse and over the age of 18 and go into a store and purchase a firearm and use it that same day without breaking any law. They could even, and sometimes do, go and shoot someone in the dick or face. In no state can you someone purchase a vehicle and drive off the parking lot the same day without a license and car insurance, both forms of documentation somewhat insuring that the person is responsible, and will likely not go off and drive over someone's dick or face.

When John Engler started to close the mental hospitals in Michigan the crime rate and the homeless grew very fast. I got creamed in college when I suggested that we needed those hospitals to save those people who just could not get along in our world. The response was always group homes, they don't work for everyone.

It was a joke. Lighten up, man!

Where is this true that you can walk in to a store and buy a gun in 3 minutes? Where I'm from its background checks, waiting periods, and approval/denial from the local police chief in some instances.

And I can be devils advocate for my joke: anybody can go on craigslist and buy a car private party right now and do what Ted did, if that's how they roll.

Mental health and developmental professionals wanted the State of California out of the buisness of caring for the mentally ill. So acting on their recommendations, the state of California's government (state legislature) gave it to them.

Did you forget that the California
legislature was comprised of a majority of democrats and the governor (Ronald Reagan) like any other governor just signs the bills?

You can't believe everything you read from Salon . com

They actually explained it best...I actually was around to remember when we started closing and releasing patients from the psychiatric hospitals. I remember the Mental Health Systems Act in which Reagan destroyed. We traded psychiatric hospitals for jails....and it started with Reagan

I don't know about that. Back then I witnessed my youngest brother attacked by a recently released patient. My brother is skilled in hand combat and this nuts mother was screaming don't hurt my son, don't hurt my son. The nut had a broke bottle in his hand and I wasn't screaming don't hurt my brother, don't hurt my brother.

...what the poster was saying that you were too Dim to get is that he is a lawful gun owner who has NEVER shot anyone but Kennedy was a drunken fool who did in fact kill someone, with his car.

oh, and all that other bullshit you puked up is just that, bullshit, if it weren't you would have linked to your source.

the guns that are readily available or our failing health care system?

Police: Son likely stabbed Va. state Sen. Creigh Deeds, shot himself

.
Why say guns, when the guy was knifed 10 times? The gun was used for suicide of the perp...(he never knew if he had succeed in killing, thought he did, surely)

Guns are not and have never been the problem of crazy Americans. They are what saves us. Kid did us a favor, but could not seppuku with his own blade. I am glad he had the chance to choose the proper tool.

He could have shot his dad in the face, but he didn't. Guns saved the day, here.

Obama, whose overreaching gun control bill
actually, that bill, which 90% or more of americans supported, was put forth by toomey (R-PA) and manchin (D-WV).

toomey (R-PA) saw his poll numbers surge in the positive direction.

ayotte (R-NH) opposed the bill and saw her poll numbers plummet.

see ya next november! hopefully no massacres with high capacity mags and assault rifles between now and then, although smart money is on such a tragedy happening.
