Michael Bloomberg, NYC Mayor, Reacts to Colorado Shooting: Do You Agree That It Is Time for Gun Control?

Gun Control!
USE BOTH HANDS!!!

You can have them when you pry them from my cold dead fingers!!!
The boy was a psycho!

Wouldn't it be neat to see what would happen if you put a loaded gun in every adult American's hand at approximately the same time?? Let's see.

Same argument that was tried here in Ohio, when we passed Concealed Carry. Funny thing happened.... NOTHING! None of those fears were justified!

IT'S BEEN TIME SOME YEARS AGO!! I guess enough people have die senseless deaths and now you see the big picture. That some of these sick azz people with these guns, really don't need them. They are killing innocent people,what is this instead of Deer season, it's people season?!!

Where do I get my people hunting license?

Where ever you purchase a gun!!

Maybe you should go back to school and learn how to read and write before you post.

Maybe you should find away to kizz my azz, before you post. :)))

Please explain how more laws will prevent a criminal from breaking laws? A criminal by definition breaks laws, so they will break any new law you pass. Which means these laws don't to a damn thing to stop these tradgedies.

Excuse me? This is why they don't need guns! "Gun Control"!

I agree criminals shouldn't have guns.

They also shouldn't rob people, or murder, rape, assault people.

They shouldn't have meth, crack, heroine, etc either.

But for some strange reason no matter how many laws we pass banning those things, criminals still do them.

So I ask again, how does a law written on a piece of paper stop someone who breaks laws from doing anything?

Answer is it doesn't.

So anyone that believes a law banning guns would stop criminals from having guns is insane.

There isn't a country in the world where that has been the case, no matter what gun control laws they pass.

I agree with you! They have got to do something, what? I don't know! If not the country will be like Dodge City in a minute,the Wild Wild West!!

So what can they do?

Banning guns doesn't work.

Just like banning drugs or alcohol doesn't.

So what is the answer?

Take all guns! That's not going to happen,I don't know! Oh,just had a though,teach people how to communicate better so when there's a problem you can talk it out instead of shooting it out. Fear,is the root of this gun problem!

Sounds great.

I'd be all for it.

The issue is some people for whatever reason just can't understand anything but violence. The type of people that can't be deterred from doing whatever they want to do unless the deterring is done by someone able to hurt them more than they can hurt him.

Which is where that whole "Speak softly and carry a big stick" idea came from.


This punk spent over $14,000 and 6 months preparing for this attack.

It just feels more like a thrill killer or someone trying to become famous, than someone out to avenge some perceived insult to himself.

And I don't see how talking would have helped here.

If your talking about the man who just did this terrorist act in colorado,this man was very sick as in psychopath. He had to be deranged in the mind to do such a hideous crime.These type of people should be in mental institutions. The mind couldn't have been wired right,a diseased mind. You are absolutely right,no communication would have helped this young sick man. It's such a shame!

It really is.

The issue is how do you identify these people and get them the help they need in time?

I think Psychopath is a good bet if you're trying to guess his mental issues.

That's what it to me,I deal with these type of people everyday. That give you something to think about because you can't identify them until they take their mask off. That's the sad part,that man was very intelligent and he would still be living among us, if he didn't show his real self. People who are sick like that are like chameleon they can change to fit in any environment. I looked at his pictures and in each picture he looked different. The best thing we can do is keep your ears and eyes open. It was a pleasure talking with you,have a bless night! :))

You too and keep your eyes open and stay safe.

Thank you, and you do the same. :)))

I have yet to see a gun kill anyone, It takes a person to pull the trigger, so lets bad the people not the guns.

You are so right. Humans not valuing their soul will kill.

The Blooming idiot and his gun control. How's that working for you Mayor Bloomer well let's look at this statistic for New York.

New York had 532 Murders up 13% if we go by the statistics below from the New York Police Department all we have to do is ban the following:

Ban Blacks and Hispanics who are male, who had prior arrest, that knew each other, who used or sold narcotics, who used guns while outdoors on a Saturday between the hours of 2 and 3am.

Bloomberg Prohibition doesn't work, it will create the biggest black market of weapons this country would ever see, which will lead to even more deaths and more crime, friggin idiot.

It is broken down like this

The statistical breakdown of murders in 2010 offered some interesting insights:

92 percent of murder victims last year were black or Hispanic, as were the suspects in their killings.
90 percent of all suspects were male; 83 percent of the victims were male.
81 percent of the suspects had prior arrests, as did 72 percent of the victims.
Investigators determined that most victims and suspects knew each other.
More than half of the suspects — as well as their victims — were tied to the use or sale of narcotics.
62 percent of the victims were shot.
64 percent of the killings occurred outdoors.
95 were on a Saturday, and 41 of those were between 2 and 3 a.m.

great! Now do Chicago...

Sounds to me like we need to arm more blacks and hispanic drug dealers to control hispanic and black drug dealers. I have been saying this for years, Hispanics have a high crime rate but not to worry because they always tend to shoot each other.
Another interesting thing here, write out the words whites, blacks and hispanics and then push spell check and see what happens.

Criminals already have enough weapons. Gun control only takes guns from law abiding citizens.

The real reason that the "Blooming idiot" wants to control guns is so he can control the people.

Kindof redicules isn't it?? Got some of the strictest gun laws in Chicago and all you get to stop the killing is the mayor asking the killers to have a little pride and not kill the kids as if they really give a crap. The answer is always to build more prisons and take guns away from the people who obey the law.

Hello 1973 again. When guns were pulled off the market the murder rate went through the roof. No more Liberal "Death Kneel" in America...... With training mandatory every man woman and child need to be trained how to handle a hand gun, how to treat it and care for it. It must be worn daily on your hip ..... Felons need not ever apply. Felons caught with firearms need to be back in the penitentiary a good 20 years.
Obama is already due for 50 to like due to the 2 SS#s that do not belong to him or do we not having laws for some special People????

With freedom come a certain risk that someone will abuse that freedom but that's life. It's truly terrible what happened but their are risk in life and if you think about it he could have just as easily throw a bomb or deadly gas in the theater(both of which you can learn to make at home on the Internet) and caused the same distruction. Furthermore there is no way to pick this guy out as someone who should be able to own a gun not a bad guy no record. Guns don't kill people seemingly normal people that fly off the handle kill people and you can't write a law to stop people from going crazy.

One law abiding citizen with a gun could have saved lives.

I note that all those who were slaughtered were unarmed. Here's my answer to you, and Bloomnerg;
Make sure everyone has a gun, and knows how to use it.

Hearts need to be changed to not want to lose an eternal gift. To be good now is the foundation for eternity not the absence of a gun. There was a sword in Gethsemane, but Jesus did not use it.

Pencils don't misspell words. The operator is faulted.

Lawful gun owners don't kill people. The ones you have to worry about are the ones who break laws. They're going to do it regardless if guns are legal or illegal.

Criminals and disturbed individuals will always find guns, and if you make guns illegal they will be the only ones, leaving people that obey the law defenseless.
