Second Amendment kills dozens in attack
Virginia Tech senior Cho Seung-Hui spent a month's rent or so ($571) on an entirely legal 9mm-caliber Glock 19 handgun at Roanoke Firearms in Roanoke, Va., about 40 minutes east of the Virginia Tech campus in Blacksburg.
Just what kind of deadly weapon did an angry young English major like Mr. Cho have at his disposal?
The slightly larger Glock 22 - so named for the number of bullets that its magazine can contain - is the single most popular police sidearm used in the United States, according to years of national survey data.
Glock's Web site states that their pistols are "in use by over 65 percent of law enforcement," and the Federal Bureau of Investigation issues every one of its agents a Glock 22 or 23 upon graduation from its academy. American security patrols in Iraq also favor similar Glocks..........
..............See, what's great about America is that if you want to go on a killing spree, all you need are three forms of identification - a state I.D., a bank check and a phone bill, for example - and, after a minute-long instant background check, you're good to go, son.
Voila! A mass murderer is newly minted! You don't even have to tell the gun shop dude (much less the state of Virginia) why you need the 9mm, or 50 bullets! Let the bodies hit the floor, right?
Thirty-three of those bodies, including that of Mr. Cho himself, were found dead in at least four buildings on the Virginia Tech campus Monday morning.
"There wasn't a shooting victim that didn't have less than three bullet wounds in them," said Dr. Joseph Cacioppo of Montgomery Regional Hospital in Blacksburg......
Did the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protect the 32 innocent Americans gunned down this week? Or did the long-since-antiquated law fail them, and render them nothing more than breathing target practice for a pissed-off civilian?......
The second reaction is that the shootings could have been prevented by more stringent gun control laws, i.e. the banning of nonservice civilian handguns. This is to me the most sensible and inevitable conclusion one can make in the wake of such a bloodbath.
The third and most dangerous reaction is the pseudo-libertarian response that a more-armed citizenry could have better defended themselves against such an attack. ........
In a culture where 34 percent of Americans own firearms, men, women and children will continue to die facing the barrel of a gun.
It is sad that the innocent majority have to brutally suffer for the trigger-happy minority's mindless "right to bear arms."
Thirty-two bright young college kids are dead because of two devices that were designed to kill them. It's time we shot down the Second Amendment. Our lives depend on it, just as theirs did..........
This is what we are fighting................
I'll answer to one of his questions:

These young adults weren't protected by the Second Amendment, they were DISARMED by bureaucrats!
"Should some one tell them how wrong they are."
Don't you understand that they don't care if they are wrong?
Those types of people do not care about the facts.
They do not care an ounce of donkey spit about being truthful.
They do not care if they lie or not.
It's all about their agenda and the end justifying their means.
Being truthful does not fit into their ultimate long term goal and plan of a total ban and confiscation of all firearms.
