Firing Range..

This whole crazy-man-goes-on-a-shooting-rampage nth sequel that we witnessed, and 24-hour networks spent, well, 24 hours covering was tragic. The usual knee-jerk reactions also happened as predicted. No, not from the liberals, but from the gun-runners regarding the 2nd amendment. The two favorite amendments, if you are a wingnut or Bushie (I know, tautology), are the 2nd and 5th. But, I digress!
If you are not left scratching your head about how a college student could walk into a pawn shop, put down 600 bucks and get a 9 mm glock and 50 rounds of ammo, and the shop owner is not remotely curious, then you are not thinking with your head. I am sorry!
NRA that wants to protect our rights to bear arms, because hunting is part of our family values, still cannot explain to me why a hunter (family that hunts together, .. ) would need an automatic handgun. I just don't see it. Now, the NRA's stand has been that letting the government regulate any weapon, even an AK-47, will make them come after my hunting gun is asinine. The fact is that in some states, like South Dakota, using automatic weapons to hunt is a misdemeanor! Why we can't regulate some weapons, while letting bear some that they use to go out to shoot unsuspecting animals, I don't understand.
