How did this bozo...
 
....obtain those firearms?



Killer of 2 NY firemen had semiautomatic rifle

WEBSTER, N.Y. (AP) — Police say the man who lured firefighters in
Webster, N.Y., into a deadly ambush had the same make and caliber
semiautomatic rifle as the one used in the Connecticut school massacre.

Webster Police Chief Gerald Pickering said Tuesday that 62-year-old
William Spengler was armed with a .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle, a
..38-caliber revolver and a 12-gauge shotgun in Monday’s ambush. Spengler
killed two firefighters and wounded two others before fatally shooting
himself.

Police have not said which weapon or weapons were used to shoot the
firefighters.

Spengler, who set his house on fire to lure the first responders, left a
note saying he wanted to burn down the neighborhood and kill as many
people as possible. But the note didn’t give a motive for the shooting.

Maybe we should pass laws against stealing and murder. When those work
out, we can pass laws against undefinable categories of firearms.
Yeah, that ought to fix EVERYTHING!


Or, since laws clearly don't fix everything, we may as well not have any.

Or, more precisely, laws don't fix ANYTHING. A law MIGHT punish people
AFTER COMMISION OF A CRIME, but since the very first law it has been
abundantly clear that it didn't PREVENT any sort of behavior.

Prohibition prevented the ownership of alcoholic beverages, much the
same as people now seem bent on "preventing" ownership of certain
poorly defined guns. How did that work out? Haven't we learned
ANYTHING from history?

And, yes, constantly trying to judicially stick your finger in the
dike is a fools errand. Fewer laws would not be a bad thing.


Wow...you're a libertarian looney. Figures.
