[quote:Anonymous Coward 77682089:MV80MTExNzg5Xzc0NjEwMTk1XzEwOUM3MjU2] [quote:Anonymous Coward 77908023:MV80MTExNzg5Xzc0NjA4OTA3X0Q5OTdGOEQ0] Can we address this, without emotion, and apply some logic for a moment here? Long rifles, like the AR-15, belong in places where there is room to shoot it. Maybe Midwestern states, down South in some parts, Vermont and so on. Perhaps the ban should be limited, to a zone, say within a certain radius of a major city, which can be outlined by outlaying markers on every major road, train, water way or access point to that area, which states that such weapons are then prohibited. That way, people who hunt and own guns responsibly, are not treated like criminals, are not stripped of their 2nd Amendment rights and there's an added degree of safety from having such weapons being fired in close proximity to others. Because, not for nothing, back when the 2nd Amendment was written, there were no suburbs and large cities like New York, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Chicago, Las Vegas and the likes. Within suburban areas which have homes within or under, 500 feet of each other, only a shotgun or hand pistol should be permitted and this verification, licensing and such, could be further tied to the owner or renters proof of land deed at the county office showing that property, relative to any adjacent ones. That way, people can also still protect themselves, without shooting a round through sheet rock and accidentally killing their next door neighbor by accident. Just an idea, don't come down too hard on me with criticism here. [/quote] LOL. I live in the suburbs just 15 miles from a major Metro area. (a 5000+ home master planned community built around a nature preserve). We have numerous firing ranges around & folks hunt deer & hogs here- because they are nuisance animals that need to be hunted. I appreciate that you are trying to reasonable but this a perfect example of people not having all the information they need to form sound opinions. [/quote]

Feds: Dayton shooter's friend bought him body armor, gun accessory
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — A friend of the Dayton gunman who killed nine people told federal agents he bought him body armor, a gun accessory and a 100-round magazine earlier this year, according to a court document unsealed Monday.
The charging document says Ethan Kollie bought the items for Connor Betts and kept them at his apartment so his friend's parents would not find them.
Prosecutors on Monday unsealed a charge against Kollie that accused him of lying about not using marijuana on federal firearms forms in the purchase of a pistol that was not used in the shooting.
