The killings in Newtown, and at the Mall in Oregon, both could have been prevented if the firearms were locked up in a gun safe.  Why?  Because they were stolen.  In the Newtown killings, (from my understanding) the semi auto rifle was left in the vehicle, and not involved.  But what is gonna sound more dramatic?  Yeah, its a sad thing that happened, but it doesn't help that the media is fanning the flames on this.  Along with the government!!  Things are being blown out proportion, causing mass fear, and what do you think is gonna happen?  People are gonna panic, and go freaking nuts.  So, many people are getting guns in Oregon, that the call center for the background check keeps crashing on a daily basis.  What about all the idiots that are getting guns, that have absolutely not idea on how to handle a gun, and those are the ones that scare the :pokinit: out of me.  Because they think that if they had a gun in a situation, they could defuse it.  No, I would rather take my chances shielding my family from the mental shooter than one that can think they can stop one with their purse pistol.  And the media advertising the fact that just drives home the idea, that if you want to go and shoot people that you have to go to a Mall, School, or any large group assembly. 

I'm so sick of all the stuff that is going on, and I'm not talking about the shootings.  We had a local drop his gun in the movie theater, and kids found it the next day.  And my wife is all freaked out about it, that I can't even talk to her about anything weapons related.  I can't even show/tell her the fact that I bought some ammo for my pistol and a banana mag for my 10/22.  Or she will kill me.  She wants to have conversation about it with me, but she already has made up her mind, and I can't talk any sense into her.
