Umm...
No.
You can carry in your automobile if you have the clip in the glove box and the weapon in the trunk.
They can not be loaded UNLESS you have a Concealed permit (Pistol License)
-------------------------
You can not buy a Pistol same day with out a back ground check.
which takes up to two weeks or longer.
---------------------------------
You CAN buy a rifle off the shelf at any time if you are over 18.

I'd Love to know what states allow you to buy a pistol wiht out a BG check same day?
That would still be way fewer deaths than by cars:
More than 33,000 people and 11,000 kids 10 and under died in car crashes in 2009 (latest year available).

It shocks me how people like oktexas frame the argument in a way that would make everyone be armed, let me guess if the teacher had a gun she could have stopped it right?
The OP is one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

That would depend on how proficient she was, damn sure would have given the guy something to worry about. I guess you want to have the free kill zones all over the country, where the bad guys know no one will oppose them. Right, because that's proven to work so well. 2 million people use a gun to protect themselves and others annually, do you want them to just lay down and take what ever the bad guy has in mind?
How about banning any and all alchoholic beverages?
How many wives are beat, murdered and raped because hubby got drunk?
How many children are beat, murdered and raped because daddy got drunk?
That third question, I bet you lefties are saying, "That's what abortions are for, to prevent child abuse you stupid nazi whack job neocon righty pube".
Car accidents and 18 children shot execution style are the same in your mind?
Guess what, idiot, one of them is preventable.
Ahhhhhh...I see now.
"Execution-style" is left wing anti-gun code to hype up an already horrible tragedy.
Executions by guns are performed with the condemned against a wall, or tied to a post, with a blindfold and a platoon of riflemen shooting him in the heart.
"Execution-style" is a media invention used by dickwads to color a murder as if it were nothing more than a great sports play that needed that little extra something for the viewing audience.
.
And yet the right wings answer.........arm the kids an teachers, it's comical.
Critics will focus on gun control after todays school massacre.
The focus should be on failed liberal policies that excuse rather than assist extremely dysfunctional individuals.

Yep, we need to ban wheeled vehicles. They kill entirely too many people. The lazy sob wouldn't have been at the school if he had to walk.

Car deaths are accidental. To compare the two is stupid.
City surpasses 2011s murder total

Chicago hits a murder milestone
December 1, 2012
Carlos Alexander was going through his morning routine: Go to the store near his house. Get a cup of coffee and a Chicago Sun-Times.
On Monday morning, he was shot and killed on his return trip, a milestone murder in a bloody year in Chicagos neighborhoods a year already worse than 2011.
The 33-year-old father of fours slaying was the 436th murder in Chicago in 2012, one more than the total for all of last year.
Two additional shooting deaths were recorded later Monday, bringing the total to 438.
The violent year has grabbed international attention. For Alexanders family, it brought heartbreak and questions. His wife had to tell their four children daughters ages 13 and 12 and sons ages 9 and 1 that their father was dead.
He was a good person. He loved his kids. He was just caught in the midst of violence thats going on around here. He wasnt no bad guy, said Aaron Avery, his brother-in-law.
Its senseless. He just came from the store. He went to get a newspaper and some coffee.
Alexander was gunned down in the 7900 block of South Escanaba at about 10:30 a.m. Monday, not far from his home. With a bullet wound in his left shoulder, he collapsed, gasping for air, into his sisters arms before falling unconscious. He later died at Northwestern Memorial Hospital.
Nearby residents said Alexander appeared to be an innocent bystander caught up in a turf war between gang members on Escanaba and Manistee.
Alexander had wanted to flee the violence. He tended to stay indoors to avoid trouble, and was considering a move to Milwaukee, his family said.
Its senseless. Its pointless. Its kinda hard to describe, said Alexanders brother, Lorenzo Alexander. Kids these days dont have any ambition. They run the streets wreaking havoc.
Lorenzo Alexander said his brother had been out of work for a few years and wanted to learn a trade to help give his kids better opportunities in the future.
He didnt bother anyone, said Lorenzo Alexander. He wasnt involved with whatevers going on around here...new beef or problem. It was definitely a case of mistaken identity.
A graduate of Hirsch Metro High School, Alexander watched the Bears game Sunday afternoon and planned to trick or treat with his kids this week.
On the front of the store Alexander had just left before his murder, two CeaseFire Illinois signs were posted.
One says, Stop. Killing. People. The other: Dont shoot. I want to grow up.
Theyve been shooting all summer long on this block, said one resident, Denny Everett.
On Monday, Walter McLemore, 37, of the 3600 block of West Augusta Boulevard, was killed in a shooting around 1:20 p.m. on the 1100 block of West Wilson in the Uptown neighborhood, authorities said.
A separate shooting about five hours later left a 36-year-old woman dead with a gunshot wound to the chest on the 1600 block of North Spaulding Avenue in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, police said.
The citys murder count has proved a challenge for Mayor Rahm Emanuel as it continues to make headlines.
Asked Monday how he feels about surpassing last years murder total with more than two months left in 2012, the mayor said, Obviously, not good. This weekend, I called a mother, Gladys, whose son was shot. Thats, as you know, the hardest part of this job. I called another mother also [whose child was shot] to make sure that they know that theyre not alone.

No, it really isn't. The point is that we see a couple of these school massacres each year. In total, less than fifty people are killed. How much are we going to spend to prevent this and make our schools 100% safe? The cost would be mind boggling. Look at it this way. Putting two police officers in every single school throughout the US would cost upwards of $13 billion, and having two rent a cops in a school would be no guarantee that something like today's tragedy still wouldn't happen. To make our schools 100% safe would cost over $100 billion and we would be making our schools prisons. All that to save 50 or so lives. Don't get me wrong, I'm not downplaying the loss of life. It is horrible, but how much are we willing to pay to stop it from ever happening again?
