16. Ahh! The latest anti-gun crusader launches GITN Guns In The News Version 4.0 or is it 5.0?
Welcome to a long list of failed posters that list random criminal and negligent acts that involve firearms that made the papers.

You are about the fifth (or sixth person?) to do the same thing in the past few years. It's not a new or effective idea by any measure. So far the longest lasting one was about three or four weeks IIRC.

Here's what happens next.

You continue to post a series of what you feel are prime examples of why "guns are bad and we need more regulation".

We respond to a few of them but your posts, for the most part, are irrelevant to any real discussion of gun law or policy or totally ignore any and all examples of the positive use of guns for defense.

Then we start ignoring them because they are repetitive and tedious and there's something downright unseemly about a person using the injury to others to reinforce their world view.

Then you get tired and go away.

That's why there are no gun control web sites that allow comments - anywhere. Because there are only a handful of bitter, ignorant and ill informed people that feel the same way and even they get tired of the pointless whining after a while.

But have fun for as long as it lasts.
