Does the Virginia Tech massacre justify banning all guns?

I don't think it justify's banning guns, but this isn't important right now. what's important is that families have lost loved ones and everyone needs to lend out compassion and support and shy away from selfishness.

NO. I think that people who do these things would do them regardless of the weapons at their disposal. They are just obviously crazy.

roadhazzards

Nope not at all.

Does the stupidity of Don Imus justify the banning of free speech?

Dude, I am a Yellow Dog Democrat, I own and use 6 hand guns and 2 rifles. Nobody that I vote for wants to take yours or my guns away. That is a lot of special interest drivel from the NRA and the gun lobby. If I or you are not criminals or mentally deranged and don't have restraining orders against us, what do we care that the BIG BAD GOV. knows we have a gun?

Of course not, although the liberals and gun-banners will exploit this to pump up public opinion yet again.

Every gun ban that has been tried has actually worked at cross-purposes. Ban guns, and gun crimes INCREASE -- because those who would use guns to commit crimes DON'T OBEY THE LAW. Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!

Enforcement of existing laws would be far more effective than just layering on more laws on an already extremely highly regulated business.

AlanC

Of course not. It should justify just the opposite, actually. If some of those students--or professors--had guns, they could have taken out the little nutjob before he killed 32 people.

no. I believe that we the people have the right to bear arms. Guns don't kill people. People kill people.

Just Tryin

it justifies strict reasons on owning guns

There won't be a ban on guns and there shouldn't be one. They didn't ban them after the Colombine massacre.

Nope, if you ban guns only criminals will have guns and you will be out gunned and in trouble. The first thing a government does to take control of a country they invade is take away the guns, Hitler did this.

The best way to prevent gun violence is to have the people all owning guns that way the criminals would not know if they would survive a crime because they might get shot by a legal gun owner.

What weshould banned is not gun, what we nned to control are Koera people, Asian people and China man.

honeybeejim

it should allow all of us to carry,

Glad to see the gun ban on campus is working. Lordie.
If there had been a responsible gun owner around who had licensed concealed firearm this massacre would not have gone on anywhere near as long as it did.
What's going to happen now are all the copy-cat killers out there getting ready to shoot up another campus.
It's a sick world.

I can take a rock and bash in 32 heads, how are you going to go about banning all rocks????

davcon1223

No and no, no, on, no, no, no, no, no.

bluekornfarmer

no but those stupid right wing republicans need to wake up this isnt the wild west anymore and we need some tighter restrictions on gun control. It should be much harder to obtain guns and the government really needs to start taking action. How many times do innocent people need to be murdered for these people to open there eyes. i hope that in such a terrible event, at least a shred of goodness can come out of it and the united states will finally tighten gun control laws.

Old saying.
It's not the gun that's dangerous.
It's who has it.
To be sure,,,Take our right to defend ourselfs or the right to go out and have fun shooting targets,,,or deer,,,game,,,what ever,,,
The right to bare arms will,,,And I mean,,,Bare arms will belong to the criminal.
Too many people with more power than you and I can do anything about,,,Are running the show.
There does have to be however ,,,stronger laws,,not to take certain or all guns away ,,,but,,, laws pertaining to defending yourself,,,behavior laws,,,attitude laws,,,comonsense laws
governing the right to bare arms.
There are too many fruit cakes out there that should never have one.

navywife99

NO!

inspectclouseau

I live in Brazil. The whole country recently voted on whether to ban guns. I voted we continue to have the right to have guns, and this vote finally won. People asked all the yeahs why, trying to imply that we were some gun toting freaks. If guns were banned those who wanted to defend themselves would have nothing, and the criminals would never be affected by the ban and get the guns illegally. So it leaves me worse off. Thats why I voted in favor of the right to own guns.

mothermayhem

this will never happen. but we will get your gun when we "PRY IT FROM THE COLD DEAD FINGERS OF YOUR CHILDREN'S HAND"
