Okay Tom, what's your solution to gun violence and mass shootings? Given the system failed to stop the Parkland shooter, and you say that was a one off, what of the bigger problem?

Many of them are used in suicides and family violence situations, there will undoubtedly still be a black market that criminals use and the only way to stop that is for manufacturers to be involved in the registration process so every weapon is registered and its path to owner is recorded.Quote:

Noor Salman's lawyers say FBI hid these key facts until now out of embarrassment: it was due to FBI's close relationship w/Mateen's father that they didn't arrest Mateen when they investigated him in 2013.
DOJ prosecutors got caught lying about a key point in the case in that the FBI knew that the statement they coerced Mateen's wife into signing was false. The case against Mateen's wife is falling apart and she'll likely walk even though she cased the club out and drove him to the club.
This is just one of many examples where existing laws failed to prevent tragedy .
Makes you want to move to Australia and raise kangaroos!
makes you wonder about the utility of new laws if the top law enforcement and intel agencies keep badly blowing it and getting it wrong .
Do you think they are blowing it or deliberately flouting it to gain some advantageQuote:

They don't stay in one spot and unlike cattle they travel quickly, they can leap fences, they can be aggressiveQuote:

The delivery of knives bought online to private addresses is to be banned under a package of measures to tackle knife crime to be announced by the home secretary, Amber Rudd.Knives bought online will in future have to be collected in person, with retailers responsible for checking that all buyers are 18 or older. New powers are also proposed for the police to seize banned weapons such as zombie knives, knuckledusters and throwing stars if they are found in someone’s home, and to arrest those involved.
Pry my zombie knife from my cold dead fingers.
Very likelyQuote:
