It is quite interesting how Obama is focused on these mass shootings and says virtually nothing about the violence in the inner cities among people of color.

An otherwise law abiding citizen is going to be able to get a gun under most "common sense gun laws". What is someone going to be denied a gun because he said something to someone at some point? That's all we have on most of these pyshcopaths before they do these things!! It's absolutely a mental health issue

In the case of this shooting (and Newtown, etc) you are spot on. In a free society, especially post 09/11, there is always a trade-off between liberty and security, no one knows the best place to draw the line. All we know us, wherever we collectively choose to draw the line, there will eventually be blood shed just on one side, and we need to discuss whether or not we need to move the line.

God Bless the victims. I heard a young army ver got shot 7 times by trying to stop the gyu, and he's alive, and that the vet's son turned 6 yesterday. Some birthday present, Dad needs to learn to walk again.
