Your point?

No, let me make that stand out more.....

A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD BOY

Your argument holds no value to the topic at hand. The 15 year old boy wasn't supposed to have a firearm of any sort. NONE. ZERO. ZILCH. ZIP. NADA. The gun should have been locked up by the parents. Assuming he even got it from his parents. I had a guy offer to sell me a MAC-10 by the time I was 16. Note: MAC-10's are illegal nationwide, not just for 16-year-old me. This is the kind of bullheaded hypocrisy that makes my head want to explode. What would a firearms ban have done in this situation? Nothing. Nothing at all, that's what.

And as for the gun show accidents.

The libs push for gun control has clearly pushed the noobs of guns to the gun shows. The one in Raleigh an idiot brought a loaded shotgun. Though the news has left out that many that saw the incident said a LEO was the one in control of it when it went off.

^ Ugh... I was at a gun show earlier this month. Saw a ton of uneducated people looking to purchase their first gun. I witnessed a 55 year old man pick up a mossberg 500 racking the pump at waist height at the crowd saying ignorant s*** to his wife. "Oh man, saw off the barrel on this thing..... Blah blah" I think at one point he was making sound effects. I was taught gun safety at the young age of 7 when I was given my first crossman air rifle. I demonstrated the ability to use it safely then was allowed to use it unsupervised. People like that guy at the gun show piss me off and make me uncomfortable. The eagle arms show I attended checks in all weapons upon admission and zip ties most.

RIT student defends himself when armed attackers invade apartment. The story was covered on local news. Wonder why it never made national? Oh yeah it doesn't support the Libs agenda. Point is just the presence of a gun is enough to prevent a death or crime.

I can totally relate to uneducated people suddenly running out and buying a gun because they're scared of the government. You should see the lines at gun shows here. They're literally out the door and around the corner just to get in. Pallets of ammo gone in minutes. Need .45 OR 9mm? Good luck. Half the people have never handled a gun, and think that a gun show is the best place to buy a gun for cheap. No respect for firearms, no idea of safe handling practices, and no idea what they actually need for the reason they want it.

Oh, and to keep this on topic:

Armed guard in Atlanta stops shooting at a middle school. Wow, imagine that. A bad guy with a gun, stopped by a "gun free zone" sign. Oh wait, that's not what stopped him. It was the armed guard.

And for added comedy, Piers Morgan says the guard didn't stop the shooting.
