What about MD? Crack down on BMore, problem solved. The rest of MD is fine. You can't blame everything on guns, if someone is going to kill, they will find a way.
Shooting at Columbia Mall in MD. 3 dead

See below.
*For the 2nd time...I am not against guns at all...just for stricter regulations for purchasing.

Again, you want MD as a whole to pay for what some people dude. Once again make it hard for law abiding citizen while the criminals are going continue buying them with ease. Now, does MD not do a background check? Or maybe a waiting period?

Stricter regulations would ONLY effect law abiding citizens. Criminals will continue to obtain firearms illegally, regulations or not.
The majority of gun fatality's in the US are perpetrated with illegal weapons by those already involved in illegal activity. Changing the laws to reduce the amount of legal gun owners wont do anything to curb crime.

You brought up NYC/DC...I brought up MD. What I would like to see is a nation-wide regulation...NOT just for individual states.
Of course people will circumvent the law. It happens all the time. However, making things a little stricter as far as purchases go isn't going to hurt. If you're a law-abiding citizen, is it going to affect your life that much if you have a 30 day wait period for a gun opposed to having one right away? Yes, you have constitutional rights to bear arms, but times are changing in this world. You will STILL have that right...but there should be a wait period, IMO.
I'm obviously not a law-maker, but it's going to be interesting to see what comes of this especially since it happened no more than 20 minutes outside of DC.

That's what people don't realize. More gun laws only make it hard for regular people to get guns.

yes is going to affect me ... To the point that the state might not even accept my application. Just like high cap magazines. Its illegal .. come on. If you know criminals are going to circumvent the system, why make it hard for honest people? Maybe that law you want end up coasting someone's life in a home invasion.

Exactly.
Its like the war on Drugs.... All stricter regulations do is create a more profitable black market for those who are willing to break the law.

So aware me of how an "honest, law-abiding citizen" (your words) would have a hard time getting the state to accept your application?
Why reform any laws then?

not to get off topic, but that's why you see more innocent (drug users) people in jail than no **** full blown while collar criminals that are affecting thousands of hard working families, because of the system.

Because it doesn't need to be changed. You don't compromise on what's already right.

Based off of what?
I love how you state your opinion as fact.
Well based on the fact that it actually works. The proof is in the pudding, so to speak. People are able to defend themselves, their families, if they choose. People can buy their firearms of choice with minimal.hassle (in most states). The laws work fine.

So you do compromise on what's right? I always thought Compromise came from when people couldn't come to a consensus on a issue. The laws are already on the books.

Do you really believe that once a law is written it's infallible and should never be altered?
You can't possibly be that shortsighted.
Being in favor of 2nd amendment rights doesn't mean that you're not allowed to criticize their flaws or acknowledge that changes should be made. As a matter of fact, an amendment by definition is a change to a law or in this case a constitution.
Thank you for this hackneyed gem, but your words have no value to me.
Shut up.
