Happy to see the dogpile on that one.

Thread has everything... "gun violence, loopholes, keeping guns out of the wrong hands" and a hypothetical scenario that is impossible; buying a gun at Kmart.

You guys aren't doing a great job. Why has no one pointed out that there is no waiting period in Colorado? Why has no one pointed out the equally obvious point that a gun purchase is a one time event. If some husband or wife is "deranged," then they are deranged all the time, not just when they go to buy a gun. People very rarely buy guns out of anger or while angry, but that is when they use them. So a deranged person buying a gun during a calm period waiting three days (which again is not the case in Colorado), then using the gun later saved exactly zero lives and didn't even register on the meter of goodness.

This AND a waiting period keeps someone that has just discovered that they have an angry and dangerous person in their life threatening them (in possession of a weapon they purchased years ago) and they get to sit helplessly "cooling off" while said angry and dangerous person is free to murder them at their whim.

Not a strong argument, but throw that in there as well.

The reason anti-gunners look so stupid discussing gun laws is that 99% of them know NOTHING about (a) guns or (b) law.

So that kind of handicaps them in the "conversation." They are pretty much reduced to shouting out somebody else's talking points or just shrieking like Helen Lovejoy: "Won't somebody please think of the children?"

Wasn't able to read that, resolution is too low.

BTW, looks like even with an account the page isn't accessible if you're not in that immediate area...

You can zoom in until you can read it. Good response in numbers from the local community.
