How many more excuses are you going to float? How many more denials are you going to make?

A country that lives by the gun dies by the gun. And the GOP, the assassin's party, has made sure that this country has more than enough guns. We can go on and on about how Loughner was crazy or his winger parents failed to deal with him or that the college that kicked out should have done more or the sheriff should have arrested him and had him committed.

But those are all sidebars. The bottom line: the US is a violent country made that way by the assassin's party and maintained that way by the assassin's party and its cohort.

All wingers who fight gun control in this country and encourage anarchy when they don't get their way are as guilty as if they pulled the trigger themselves. End of discussion.

The FBI says more than 100 million background checks have been made in the past decade, leading to more than 700,000 denials. In other words, fewer than 1% of those who apply are turned down.

Guess what? If your sheriff had been doing his job and followed up the numerous complaints on the asshole that did the shooting, he wouldn't have been able to purchase a legal gun. Instead his office just blew them off. The system would have worked like it was supposed to. The Tucson massacre has already happened in this country's history countless times with all manner of weaponry. Of course it's going to happen again. Has zero to do with legal purchases of guns in America. I would hazard a guess that firearm sales are going up because the general populace is afraid of what our economic policies are going to cause in the not so disant future and they feel the need to defend themselves. I know I do.
