    Wow, celebrating somebody's death because you don't like guns. Amazing.

    Anybody can rent a gun at a shooting range? You gotta be shitting me.

    And, Inky, I don't think anyone is celebrating somebody's death. Some of us are just disgusted by the incidents of gun violence in our supposedly civilized country.

    What a sadly disturbing story. Mental health or not....

    Just offering it up as a possibility based on the frantic pace set in the first quarter of the year.

    But, at least your momentous streak of posts showing off your reading-comprehension shortcomings is alive and well.

    "If we're lucky, perhaps the NRA and gun-ban opponents will kill themselves off" sure sounds like somebody hoping people will die. If it's not celebrating, it's at least wishful thinking on Simon's part.

    And since I'm a gun owner, I guess Simon is hoping I die.

    Guns don't kill people. Stupid, and or irresponsible people do.

    Overreact much?

    Not as much as Simon.

    How else am I, an opponent of a gun ban, supposed to read that?

    Rent a gun? Hell, for $125 you can shoot a fuckin' AK-47.

    That place, sadly, is less than 10 miles from my house. Check out the photo essay link at the bottom of the story.

    I guess we can start by defining "gun ban."

    1. Ban all guns

    OR

    2. Require courses and certification and training and background checks that take a minimum of 6 months to complete before anyone can legally purchase one.

    OR

    3. Something in the middle.
