So? What you want her to show her "I'm allowed to buy a knife" card at bed bath and beyond? You know they actually let you take a large sharp kitchen knife to look at it - I could very easily with one single motion slash the throat of my kid or the employee and they'd be dead.
That's the point.
Even when I openly admit you were right, a courtesy you would never extend to me I'd wager, you still can't respond like a grown man? That's very sad.
Am I to take from your reply that you don't think gun ranges should be regulated at all? So a five year old should be allowed to fire whateer weapons he wants unsupervised for example?
Why do I even bother...
Fine. No regulation on guns. Doesn't help at all. Let's see how many Virginia Tech's we can have.
You could? Maybe. An old woman could? Doubt it. She waited for the gun becasue she needed the gun.

There is nothing wrong with the current regulation at gun ranges. Apparently you think there is. Of course you wouldn't be so ignorant to come to this conclusion without being informed would you? Well I'm obviously not as informed as you are, so would you mind educating me and telling me what the current regulations are at gun ranges, what you thing should be improved, and more importantly, how many people are murdered at gun ranges every year?
There is something wrong because a woman with a history of mental illness was able to rent a gun and shoot her son in the head with it.
Doesn't matter. Nuclear weapons have been only used twice. Any reason to be worried about them being used again?

I started talking about regulation because someone told me there was no rule which could have prevented this particular thing. There obviously are such rules so I listed some. You don't have to like them they still exist. I don't need to back that up with stats.
You're deflecting. Just because you don't like the reality of the situation doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
A mentally ill person should never, ever have a gun in their hand. Ever. Period. End of story. I know you want to win but how can you defend this?
"SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED!"
Also I don't agree that a mentally ill person should never have a gun in their hand, not one bit.

The one common theme I've noticed with the anti-gun crowd is that they're completely ignorant of the facts and they don't care to be informed. These threads pop up at least once a week and we go over the same exact points every time. Yes, you (and the other anti-gun folks) really do need to back up your position with facts. If you're not interested in at least learning a little bit about the subject then why bother?
Luckily they don't require a brain otherwise you couldn't get one.
This instance should prove that making it harder for people to get a gun won't solve anything. She used a range rental gun to commit the murder.

Talk to their families about why it's okay for the mentally ill to use guns.

You keep bring up nuclear weapons in a thread about some crazy woman killing her kid and you accuse me of deflecting? I ask you for specific facts that have direct relevance to this case and you once again counter with some dribble about nuclear weapons and you accuse me of deflecting. Are you kidding me?
I'd love for you to point out where I said that a mentally ill person should have a gun in their hand.
If you're going to post "facts" you may want to check those.
There is no waiting period in the federal law. There may be waiting periods in state laws. There is however a clause that says if the instant background check can't clear you on the spot, they have 72hours to complete it and deny you. If they do not deny you in the 72hrs that is the same as being granted.
In some states you do not even have to submit to the background check if you have a state issue license.
