I hate to say it but this is a classic example of a gun-control argument. Many homicidal maniacs are not "criminals" and can amass weapons, they are law-abiding shlubs right up until they go postal. All it takes is a **** ex-wife or a business dispute to turn them into Charlie Manson. I'm pro-2nd amendment but these incidents are the biggest threat to that freedom. Public opinion can swing wildly towards more laws after a highly-publicized killing spree.
