Guns shouldn't be so easily obtained, they should be tough criminal checks and a limit on the capacity of ammo you can have at one time among many other things.

Most states do have tough background checks on gun purchases and limtng ammo purcahses won't change anything.  Many gun owners will go through several hundred rounds at the gun range each sitting.   And Holmes only fired 150 or so rounds out of the 6,000 he purchased.  In fact, very few gun involved crimes involve morre than just a couple of rounds.

150 is plenty to kill many though, plus if some stranger came to my gun shop and bought 6000 bullets in one go, i would be suspicious. wouldn't you?
