McCarthy blames Norway shootings on ‘lax U.S. gun laws’!

“Norway Terrorist Used Lax U.S. Gun Laws To Help Get Armed for Massacre,” a headline on Rep. Carolyn McCarthy’s tax-funded website claims. “Anders Behring Breivik’s Manifesto Describes Buying  High-Capacity Magazines from U.S. for Purpose of Mass Murder.”

If only we would let her disarm us, all would be well:

One type of weaponry in particular that terrorist Anders Behring Breivik easily acquired from the U.S. – high-capacity ammunition magazines – would be prohibited from sale or transfer if H.R. 308, a bill by Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-NY4), would pass and be signed into law.  That legislation currently has 109 cosponsors in the House.

Here’s the bill.

Here’s the Rogue’s Gallery of Oathbreakers.  And wouldn't it be 108, since they lost their Weiner?

Of course this does not take into account that it took police an hour and a half to respond to the shooting—or that citizens and even a policeman on scene were disarmed by Norwegian law.  But that never stopped a blood dancer from stomping in puddles to see how far they could spread the spatter.

Personally, I think McCarthy’s bill is too short-sighted to be effective.

Do you know what would really work, and would have probably stopped the mass murderer in his tracks?

Banning shoulder things that go up. (Be sure to scroll down and also watch the “incendiary…heat-seeking bullets [that] could cook [a deer]” video!)
