Correct me if I'm wrong.... Jeordam Send a noteboard - 25/07/2012 03:53:07 PM
but didn't the guy in Colorado buy many of his guns on-line? That, right there, I have an issue with, and I'm very pro-gun. I'm not sure what the laws in Colorado are, but here in California...even if you go to a gun show...you can't buy and then walk out with a gun. You can pay for it, take the safety test, fill out all the background paperwork, but you still have to wait your 21 (I think?) days, go to the store, and then pick it up.

The ability/opportunity to buy a gun on-line and have it just show up is crazy to me. That means anyone with a credit card and someone's (anyone's) clean ID can get a gun sent to them. And then yeah, assault rifles are a bit much.
