Another shooting in Boston just happens to shove the murder rate to a ten-year high. How could that happen, with all these laws in place? What rotten luck.

Well, I don't doubt that the shooter registered himself and his firearm with the Boston police, so I'm sure they won't have any trouble tracking him down.

Rudimentary news report

You know, that brings up a question that I am morbidly interested in. How often do police compile a list of suspects from the listing legal gun owners living near a crime scene? I hope the answer is 'never', but if guns really are the cause of crime, then smart police work would start with the registered gun owners first. If (as I suspect) police don't bother with such unlikely suspects, isn't that obvious evidence that the whole gun-licensing/gun-registration system is useless?

The VAST majority of gun crimes are committed by non-licensed criminals.

The Registry of Motor Vehicles is struggling with that concept right now. Their fix is to let illegal aliens register a car but not get a drivers license.

You've got to be kidding me! Unless it's a sting operation for the severely stupid amongst illegal aliens then that is by far the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard!

It's true. The illegals can't get a drivers license because they do not have documentation. In Massachusetts, you DO NOT have to have a drivers license to register a car. I'm pretty sure it's like that in the majority of states. That's why you see pushes every now and then around the country to allow illegals to get DL's. It was tried here in Mass but died.
Kinda like Reilly pushing in-state tuition at state owned schools for children of illegals.

Yah, I heard that there is a push all around the country to do such things. Kansas has such a law and out of state students have filed a lawsuit in court demanding they be allowed in-state tuition rates. No ruling yet.

If there were no gun laws... Would you rather have 10.5 inch AR Pistol (buffer tube only) or 10.5 inch AR SBR (adjustable stock)?
