The world really doesn't make sense some times. That's just how it is, I suppose. Maybe one day that will chance.

Found another article update yesterday:



Quote
Colorado shooting suspect James Holmes purchased 6,000 rounds of ammunition online, along with four guns at local stores, in the weeks leading up to the tragic event that claimed numerous lives and left dozens injured at a movie theater outside Denver.

At a news conference on Friday night, Aurora Police Chief Dan Oates said, "My understanding is all weapons he possessed, he possessed legally. All ammunition he possessed, he possessed legally."

Now this is just plain nuts. All the weapons and ammunition he had, and it was all legal? I dunno, but something seems a little wrong with that. I mean, I understand we have rights to weapon possession, but this seems to be a tad on the extreme side. Perhaps they should add a mental evaluation to the requirements of purchasing arms? Something like that might actually help out in cases like this.
