[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 997690, member: 22662"] I don't think it is the gun control side that needs to answer this, it's the NRA. You tell us what enforcement will keep this from happening. Fine. We don't need new laws, we need better enforcement. Ok. Background checks, registration, and then what? Let everyone carry weapons everywhere? Remember the firefight in L.A. about 15 years ago? Couple guys armed to the teeth? Cops blasting away at their body armor to no avail. What good would an "armed citizenry" have done? Why should the NRA and like minded individuals get to sit on the sidelines and just whine about losing liberty? Time to start thinking it through and figuring out smart enforcement. This isn't about "taking away your guns". And to those suggesting that without guns the psychopaths would just use knives etc., I like my chances against a psycho with a knife far better than one armed like Holmes. [/QUOTE]
