re: #184 Dark_Falcon

I’d be more inclined to call the charge Involuntary Manslaughter than Accessory Before the Fact, but that’s just me trying to figure out exactitudes.

I can certainly agree with that. One would think “responsible gun owners” would agree that if they fail in being “responsible” and their gun is used in the commission of a crime, they should have to answer for it.

But another that stuck out to me in the cases of Laughner, Holmes, Clackamas, and now Lanza is the contrast in training. The first three had virtually no training that is verifiable and so made basic mistakes, Laughner with the reload and Holmes and Clackamas with gun jams. By contrast, Lanza had plenty of training and familiarity with his weapon and was able to use it efficiently to end a lot of lives. Call me crazy, but I think that should sort of weigh on any recommendation to familiarize and train children in gun safety in school.
