[QUOTE=Fort83;40620052]And this is why background checks should be mandatory before getting a gun in the US, so assholes can't do something like this.[/QUOTE] You don't know who did this or if they would have had a background preventing them from getting guns. Don't assume shit.
Video Games strike again. When will they be banned?
[QUOTE=Faz;40619930]What the fuck is wrong with Americans[/QUOTE] We have extremely judgmental northern neighbors
[QUOTE=Truckasaurus1;40620252]You don't know who did this or if they would have had a background preventing them from getting guns. Don't assume shit.[/QUOTE] So you're saying you want a background checks that will stop newly created criminals with clear backgrounds?
I am sorry guys, I know there's lot of chatter about rights to stuff and there's discussion on how it actually helps the cause and everything, but this is getting completely obvious and there's no other way about this. We have to ban mother's day or people will keep dying.
I really hope my mother doesn't hear about this today. My heart goes out to those affected.
can we ever get good news for once
I blame the lack of guns. If more bystanders were armed then the gunman would be more dead than he is now.
It's interesting the American stereotype, is rednecks, obesity, poor education, stuck-up, ignorant. When it reality it's, don't call a black guy nigger, there's a 70% chance you'll be robbed in some form, there are drive-by shootings, be careful and don't get raped, massive shootings and killings, don't go the Bronx.

[QUOTE=Hullu V3;40619785]America sure seems like a lovely place to live and raise your family.[/QUOTE] So nice that it was and still is the standard to weigh against for living across the planet.
Really hope Westboro Baptists do/say nothing about this.

[QUOTE=rampageturke 2;40620926]jesus christ her arms[/QUOTE] Those are what we in the field refer to as 'Bingo Wings'.

[QUOTE=calebc789;40619955]Yeah, but still, All this violence in 2012-2013 is creepy. Just why are people so violent nowadays? terrible events seem to be happening every month now.[/QUOTE] Crime has actually gone down and is still going down, people will always be violent, terrible events happen every week.
[QUOTE=Ekalektik_1;40620133]It's a felony for a dealer to [i]not[/i] put you through a background check. The bill that failed in the Senate would've made it so I'd have needed to go through the 4473 process to give an old .22 to my sister, or to get one from my dad. [/QUOTE] Wait, so it's perfectly legal for a felon to pay someone else to buy them a gun?
Jesus christ, can we just link the images instead of having them in the OP please?
[QUOTE=Deiru;40621976]Jesus christ, can we just link the images instead of having them in the OP please?[/QUOTE] I didn't think they were too graphic, then again I used to do crime scene cleanup...
I feel bad about it really, but I honestly expected this to happen today. I seriously thought in the back of my head while talking to my mom about random shit that this would happen somewhere today and it's very unfortunate I was right. My condolences to the families and those affected.
[QUOTE=Amokov;40621807]Wait, so it's perfectly legal for a felon to pay someone else to buy them a gun?[/QUOTE] Fuck no. That's a straw purchase for someone who isn't legally allowed to own a gun, both parties would be in deep shit with the feds for that. Some idiots still try it, but it is by no means legal. EDIT: Here's a bit of clarification: [quote=policymic.com]It is a federal felony to be engaged in the business of buying and selling firearms and ammunition without having federal firearm dealers license. It is a crime for a federally licensed dealer to sell a gun without doing a background check. This applies to all dealers, including at retail stores (like Walmart), gun shows, flea markets, or anywhere else. It is a federal felony to sell, trade, give, lend, rent, or transfer a gun to a person you know or should have known is not legally allowed to own, purchase, or possess a firearm. The penalty for selling a gun to a person who is a criminal, mentally ill, mentally incompetent, or an alcohol or drug abuser is a 10-year federal felony. It is even a federal felony to submit false information on a background check form for the purpose of purchasing a firearm. According to a 2012 report to the Department of Justice (DOJ), more than 72,000 people were turned down on a gun purchase in 2010 because they didn't pass the background check. Only 44 of those cases were prosecuted.[/quote] [url=http://www.policymic.com/articles/24070/gun-control-policy-universal-background-checks-aren-t-the-cure-all-people-think-they-are]Source[/url]. Honestly I'm pro-gun and I support the background check system 100%, but we need to follow through with the laws already on the books before we beef them up or make new ones.
Jesus....to think I really don't live more than 10 minutes out from New Orleans. My condolences to the families.
