    He bought his gun legally from Roanoke Firearms.

    • Of course psychological tests aren't infallible, but they would hopefully filter out the nuttiest of the nutbars.

      • Which of the following would you rather have?

        A: A puppy

        B: A flower from your sweety

            • And DaShi should get to write the test.

              I say C. Do I get to own a gun?

                Yes, I also would have accepted B.

                  Something like 32 guns usedin crimes were bought there recently.

                    I read that the guns had had their serial numbers scratched off...

                    Still, don't you think the killer would be aware that a legally-bought gun could be disabled in this manner, and go for an illegal one...I'm still referring to your scenario of course.

                        I used to work with a painfully shy woman like it sounds like this guy was. She never once acknowledged a hello, even though I made a point to say hello every day. For a couple years.

                        She had her masters in English.

For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

                          You were smart to say hello to her, though. Might have kept you from being killed if she had snapped while you still worked there...

                            There's a great comedy bit about this.

                            I think it involves a snickers bar...

                            • Nah. Wouldn't have happened. DC has a ban against handguns. And she wasn't Korean.
