Lorain Lt. Jim Rohner, who heads the city’s detective bureau, said a person should have a “cooling off†period before buying a gun — even if it’s only a few days. “I think it’s crazy someone can go in and get a background check and have a gun in a matter of an hour,†he said. “What’s the hurry? When you’re buying a gun why do you need it right now?â€
How about we pass a law that systematically requires for Police to have a cooling off period before they strap on a firearm in performance of their duties? After all they have one of the most stressfull jobs and deal with some of the worst our society has to offer. It would go a long way to prevent suicides and it would make our communities safer. They should do it for the children.
Something tells me Lt. Jim Rohner would oppose such a law as if it were a law requiring for Police to give up their first born sons but at the same time this jerk thinks that we the people don't matter.
This is the case that anti-gun leftists have been waiting for, but their reasoning is really disingenious. For the most part leftists are at the helm of every liberal indoctrination center in the country such as DC, New York,Los Angeles, and other cities. Politically left cities aren't known for their peace loving residents and are among the cities with the highest murder rates in the country. In every one of these places there are stringent victim disarmament laws in place. These laws have proven their worth by doing nothing but making it harder for the honest citizen. You'd think murder wouldn't be a shock to liberals being as they control the area's that see the most problems but you know you haven't heard the last of this article.
If I hear cries for more restrictions because of this case I'll just think to myself that anti-gun leftists are the ones responsible for many an untimely death. Their arguements for waiting periods are meritless.
