Really now??
So if I want to blow-your house up with a nuke or kill someone a little more artistically with an RPG, I can do that in the near future even though I can't get those weapons due to some pesky laws? No amount of hell or high water is going to help me know where on earth to buy a fking RPG. I wouldn't know where to start looking.
What if I just really need to kill a room full of people quickly. I need some C4 or a ballistic missile and a way to launch it. No problem, right? After all, I'm "determined".
And save all of the knee-jerk gun rights responses. I'm in favor of gun rights but unless the arguments for gun owners' rights get a lot better than this, we're doomed...
"No criminal is going to obey/care/follow any gun law anyways..." NEWSFLASH: He wasn't a criminal. He probably had squeaky clean record up until yesterday, just like every post office or office cubicle murderer who's ever bought a gun on Friday and killed all of his co-workers on Wednesday.
You're going to have to do better than that, Sparky. You're up against the better-educated half of the country. Or at least the half more likely to have taken a logic course in college on their way to a worthless philosophy degree or something.
