Gun control laws are not as effective as they should be because:
- The laws are watered down before they're passed such as only requiring licensed dealers to do background checks.
- Local authorities don't enforce the laws.
- There is no uniformity in the laws between states. If there is a problem buying guns in one state, they can be bought in other states.
- Background checks are only as good as the data in the system and many states don't go a good job in supplying information for the FBI National Instant Criminal Background Check System.
We don't abolish laws because they don't work as well as we think they should, we fix them. To make the laws more effective they should be more uniform throughout the nation, all guns should be registered, and a background check should be required for all sales.
all Firearms: bolt or lever action per round non detachable magazines would have made a difference in all the mass shootings past and future.
What is your area of expertise that leads you to that conclusion?
You can make the same argument about drugs, explosives, chemical or biological weapons.Today I swung my front door wide open and placed my shotgun right in the doorway. I set down 6 shells, and even placed it in my chair. I then left it alone and went about my business.
While I was gone, the mailman delivered my mail, the neighbor boy across the street mowed the yard, a girl walked her dog down the street, and quite a few cars stopped at the stop sign right in front of our house.
After about an hour, I checked on the gun. It was still sitting there right where I had left it. It hadn't rolled itself outside. It certainly hadn't killed anyone, even with the numerous opportunities it had been presented to do so. In fact, it hadn't even loaded itself.
Well you can imagine my surprise, with all the media hype about how dangerous guns are and how they kill people. Either the media is wrong, and it's the misuse of guns by PEOPLE that kills people, or I'm in possession of the laziest gun in the world.
Alright, well I'm off to check on my spoons. I hear they're making people fat.

"Wayne reminds me of the clowns at the circus. They get the most attention and that's what he's paid to do," Malloy said. "This guy is so out of whack, its unbelievable. 92% of the American people want universal background checks. I cant get on a plane as the governor of the state of Connecticut without somebody running a background check on me. Why should you be able to buy a gun?"

He still looks more intelligent then a libtard, and you.
Not one of these laws would have saved those children.
All of this is bullshit. But cream yourself on it libs. None of these laws would have saved one child.
The Connecticut legislation bans the sale of gun magazines with a capacity of more than 10 rounds and requires background checks for private gun sales, including those at gun shows. It also expands the state's current assault weapons ban to include more than 100 gun models.
Additionally, the Connecticut bill allocates $15 million for expanded school safety and mental health programs, and includes new eligibility requirements for ammunition sales. It also has a provision to create the nation's first registry of dangerous offenders, which will be accessible only to law enforcement officers.
What law did they pass to potentially have stopped Adam?

They already had an assault weapon ban that banned the bushmaster that she was supposed to have legally purchased between 2010 and 2012.
I can't think of anything that would have stopped him short of a good guy with a gun.
