Larry Kane's "Smart" Gun Control?
http://www.larrykane.com/2007/04/18/...kind/#comments
In Wake of Va. Tech Tragedy, Smart Gun Control - Not The Phony Kind!
April 18th 2007
There will be renewed calls for gun control in the aftermath of the slaughter at Virginia Tech. It is good thing to talk about, but the national debate always ignores a shocking reality. That is simply the fact that single-shot handguns are not as deadly as automatic weapons, and the fact that the killer at Va. Tech would have never killed as many people with a single-shot weapon. He would have been subdued.
Another fact: The Constitution allows the right to bear arms, but it doesn’t specify that people should be allowed to purchase automatic or semi-automatic weapons that can allow one person to murder so many people.
So it is time for the President and the Congress and the people to stand up for a different form of gun control - a total ban on the individual purchase of automatic weapons — a total ban. Exceptions of course would include those in law enforcement and the military.
Such a ban would satisfy the need for gun control, while at the same time allowing qualified people to buy regular hand guns, guns that protect.
If the President wants to comfort the victim’s families, and fight crime, he should make sure that people cannot buy automatic weapons of any kind.
This will cut down our disgusting murder rate and at the same time allow citizens to purchase the firearms they think they need for protection.
This is gun control with wisdom.
These recent acts of violence, capped by the mass murder at Va. Tech, require political courage and a deep respect for life.
This is a pro-life program to keep our people safe.
No automatic weapons in the hands of individuals will make this a safer country.

I just feel like ripping my eyes out when i read some of this stuff. I wonder sometimes if the human race is doomed to extinction because we continue allow idiots like this to gain power in goverment, media, and other areas.

Why is it so confusing for reporters to get firearm information correct? They seem to have no idea what they are talking about.
I enjoy when the reporters talk about the possibility of him having high capacity clips ( I think they mean magazines).

Re: Larry Kane's "Smart" Gun Control?
I think the larger question is why they refuse to report honestly?
Liberals have no problem attempting to show just how thoughtful they can be when getting the facts straight furthers their cause. If they did so with gun control their arguments would fall apart. Therefore using familiar catch phrases and media terms is what they need to always fall back on due to their lack of firm constitutional ground to stand on.
The few anti replies thus far proves that the people who want such control have no idea what they are talking about. They believe the garbage that's shoveled their way and they gorge on it until it makes them feel good about themselves.
It's truly sad. Sad that they want socialism. Sad that they are so frightened of me that want to change our constitution. Sad that I need to spend so much of my life fighting them. Sad that they are Americans. And sad so many have died so they may spew there ill conceived path for this country.FUCK BIDEN

Re: Larry Kane's "Smart" Gun Control?
It's not the reporters fault by any means. They just read what's on the teleprompter.
Blame the people in the news room if you want to blame anybody.
Reporters sit at a desk and read off of a screen, in their downtime they edit some of their material for later broadcasts, or just goof around.
The people in the news room gather information, write it, and drop it onto a teleprompter.
