8circles Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Nobody lives in a vacuum. And if you think urban crime is unrelated to the glorification of gun violence... wow. That's totally divorced from reality. I cannot like this enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's totally divorced from reality. "Glorification of gun violence" is not part of the tradition I'm talking about. Again, maybe you and I are talking about two very different "gun cultures."

MarkW Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 No, you're studiously ignoring and evading the relevant one being discussed. The one the killer was immersed in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKL Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Now it's being reported that the gunman was kicked out of the army during basic training because he tried to commit suicide. It seems to me the government had enough information to consider this guy not safe with a gun. In cases like this, an individual should not be able to legally acquire a gun or have one on his property. IMHO. The government should share information like this with whoever licenses guns / approves gun sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The government should share information like this with whoever licenses guns / approves gun sales. But under current laws he isn't disqualified. It isn't a matter of not sharing the information when even if it is shared he still won't be denied. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know of any state where this sort of information would be relevant to being able to own a gun? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
