Yeah, if only people reported this guy was planning to shoot up a school to local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies. They ALWAYS do their jobs so well, proving that we don't need to defend ourselves - the government will always flawlessly provide.

"The government and police will always cock-up and make mistakes. Therefore it's clear that we should allow lunatics to buy AR-15s so they can shoot up schools."

Jesus Christ.

Know what the UK did when they had a much smaller school shooting? They banned guns that served no purpose beyond basic self-defense, farming and a few other industries.

And guess what happened? They never had a school mass shooting again. Neither did France, Japan, Australia, Canada etc.

Know what a lunatic in the UK can't do? Buy a semi-automatic AR 15 rifle and shoot up a school.

Know what a sane person in the UK Can do? Buy a straight pull .223 AR15, or a shotgun. Once they've filled out hours of paper-work, displayed that they are sane, have a liscence and an explanation for why they need it talking with police and local authorities with background checks, references and regulations.

What a crazy thought.

You talk like this is an idea that hasn't been tried and tested and shown to be effective all other the place. Laughing at the mothers of dead kids for incorrectly calling a semi-automatic an automatic just seems like intentionally cowardly ignoring the point because you know it's a good one.

The type of legislation people desperately want is not nearly as tricky nor as ridiculous as you imply.
