Excuse for Gun Control

In Virginia Beach, Virginia, a disgruntled city employee went into a municipal building and killed 13 people, including himself. The cops actually shot him, but his actions caused his own death, so you could say he killed himself. Not mentioned (as usual) is whether or not the gun he used was legally held, But that makes no difference. If it was legal, it’s because he had no criminal record when he bought it. If illegal, he got it by breaking the law. But a person planning on murdering a bunch of people is not going to be concerned about violating a silly little anti-gun law. But you can bet the anti-gun fools will use this occurrence as an excuse to demand the making of more of their useless, unenforceable anti-gun laws that have, heretofore, done NOTHING to stop such occurrences. They don’t know what else to do, but they want to be able to say they “did something,” even if it was useless. I really get tired of writing these things over and over, and being ignored. It’s time somebody “got smart” and tried something else that might be a little more successful when blaming the gun doesn’t work. (The Virginian-Pilot)
