Kasz216 said: I mean ask yoruself this. With the gun laws... is it actually hard to get guns. If you wanted to get guns illegally to shoot up a school, would this be particularly hard for you to do? Would you be afraid of the gun laws in attempting to find guns for your plan to massacre a bunch of people? Have their been many cases where mass shootings have been stopped by the police catching people trying to get guns?
All 3 answers are no.. correct?

Yes, it is hard. Some depressed teen bullied in school is most likely not going to be able to pay off some black market contact to get their hands on an automatic.
They don't have to be afraid of the laws, just obstructed by them.
We can't know if any specific instances were averted, but since plenty of people have been busted for possessing or buying/selling illegal firearms, there's certainly the probability that some of these could have gone to people with the intent to use them.
