        the fault lies in the legality that OM could easily walk in and purchase weapons to execute a massacre. it lies in hate and terror.

        no. One can hate every with a vengeance but can only commit mass shootings if one has a gun.

        Yes. Note I said legality of guns first w/ hateful intention as secondary. A loving, responsible gun owner is non-issue.
