Orlando Shooting

 

       When Adam Lanza killed 20 small kids and 6 teachers, I distinctly remember hearing NRA' spkes person Wayne LA Pierre on television, speaking in a priestly voice, and suggesting that guns don't kill people. People kill people. He suggested that best approach is to put police officers in every school and train teachers on how to operate guns.
       Then Orlando night club shooting happened. NRA's Wayne LA Pierre now blamed  terrorists and again advocated that a person with gun would have stopped this gun man. He suggests that every american needs to have a security plan and law abiding citizens should have a gun.
        Now comes Las Vegas shooting. I wonder how any law abiding citizen could have stopped this shooter operating from 30th floor with two dozen weapons in his cache. Will NRS now advocate that every law abiding citizen should have a LMG or anti-aircraft gun handy? How can any person be allowed to collect such kind of weaponary and arsenal?
        Need of the hour is to put very stringent regulations on gun sales - both private and commercial, as well as ownership. A buyer should not be allowed to hoard multiple guns. Gun collectors should be required to store their  collection in an armoury monitored by Federal government. Anyone intending to buy guns should be asked to get approval/signatures of his family members or immediate neighbors. Some automated system should be created to detect suspicios gun buying pattern and block such purchases.
