>>> >Rep. Peter King, a Republican from New York, is planning to introduce legislation that would make it illegal to bring a gun within 1,000 feet of a government official, according to a person familiar with the congressman's intentions. This is precisely what is wrong with Congress. These dolts think they have a legislative solution to everything. As if, somehow, outlawing getting near a congressman with a gun is going to stop would-be assassins. Ridiculous.

To Introduce Strict Gun-Control Legislation Useless - legally owned conceal carry folks, collectors and prolific shooters are not committing crimes like murder and of course those people that do commit murder will never follow this type of law. Just like the school BS. You do know that one of the guys in the crowd that took down this asshole was armed legally but did not need to use his gun this time - what if he's banned from carrying concealed next time and the shooter keeps shooting but he had to leave his gun in the car. You're stupid if you think this type of law will solve anything other than help criminals murder even more people.
