Gun Banning advocates, In the wake of Aurora Co, incident. How do you explain the police action in Anaheim,Ca?

Do you think it is wise we allow the police to be the only people to have weapons? What kind of police state would we be living in? So which is it?. You going to only allow the police to have all the weapons and do as they please? Or are you finally going to wake up and see what you are up against in the future?

Update:

Why are you talking about Congress when its being done through the United Nations?

Update 2:

AL FRANKEN: Thank you for perfectly exemplifying the exact type of police state we are heading toward. I, in NO CERTAIN terms said anything about shooting police. You also, showed that you believe a citizen or entire groups of citizens have no right to defend themselves from ANY AMOUNT of violent authoritative force. Go ahead and report to FBI. Your parents should have taught you that there is some value to not being tattle tale because it shows you for what you are. A cowardly ******.

The Liberals of yesterday must be soo proud of you.

Update 3:

THANKS ALL OF YOU WHO CONFIRMED MY SUSPICIONS THAT IT IS REALLY THE LIBERAL/PROGRESSIVES WHO ARE CAUSING THE AGGRESSIVE PROGRESSION OF THE POLICE STATE AND THAT IT REALLY HAS LITTLE TO DO WITH CONSERVATIVES. Patriot Act was born from liberal authoritarian ideology. BUSH was just a liberal who pandered to the Jesus Freaks

    Sorry, but it's absurd to compare a bad police shooting of a man, to an individual with semi-automatic weapons shooting 70 people in a movie theater.

    And how do you suppose the situation would have been different if the Anaheim man had been heavily armed, and had fired back on the cops? You don't think the Samuel Jackson-type "serious anger" wouldn't have rained down on that community?

    I 100% agree. Firearms give power to the american people. Without our guns the government gains complete control over our lives. in communist countries like the soviet union and cuba, the first thing the government did was take away everyones guns, because that one right makes all others possible.

    Sensible regulation is obviously needed in Colorado.

    Not an outright ban, not a repeal of the second amendment.

    SENSIBLE REGULATION.

    Get it through your head. There are like 2 gun banning advocates in congress. The rest, including most americans, believe that sensible regulation is needed. Obviously in colorado their laws are not working.

    Hint: Gun ban advocates on public forums are actually paid shills for groups that want to establish a police state.
