Kaine is not specific about changes he would have legislature make, but states that he is "troubled" that the VA Tech killer was able to "stockpile" a "cache" of 377 rounds of ammo without police knowing about it.

I also heard that the madman bought 300 gallons of gas in the past year, which could have made a huge fire or a bomb. I was more surprised to hear the police hadn't heard about that :cuss:

This Kaine guy sure doesn't shoot much, does he?

Who are the members of the commission that are investigating the incident? What are their backgrounds and political affiliations? I am wondering if this will foreshadow the recommendations that they will undoubtedly provide in August. Can we expect them to be favorable more to the anti-rights or pro-rights crowd?

Here is a link to Kaine's April 19, 2007 release with brief bios of the panel as of that date. The panel apparently includes Gerald Massengill, Tom Ridge, Gordon Davies, Roger Depue, Aradhana Sood, and Marcus Martin.

Something else I just thought about: How the heck do you "stockpile" 377 rounds? Isn't that a prime number? Is there a brand of ammo out there that comes in 377-rd boxes?

Got me. Can you really be considered to be stock piling ammo that can fit in a kitchen drawer? That is not much at all.

Maybe I am stockpiling silverware!

That's cute.... lol...

At the last VCDL meeting I leaned over to Tomahawk and asked him''Wanna hear a MARINE joke?''

Hereplies, ''Bob, before you tell that joke, you should know something. I'm 6' tall, 200 lbs, and I'm a MARINE. TEX1N over thereis 6'2'' tall, weighs 225, and he's a MARINE. Longwatchnext to him is 6'5'' tall, weighs 235, and he's also a MARINE. Now, you still wanna tell that joke?''

So I told him''Nah, I don't want to have to explain it three times.''

<snip>Governor Kaine gave the panel investigating the Virginia Tech
shooting incident its marching orders on Monday: Kaine let it be
known that he expects the panel to recommend more gun control -
including ammunition control!<snip>

<snip> What is he suggesting - that the police spot check our homes? Is he
just going to pull a number out of thin air and say that more than
"X" rounds of ammo is evil or requires some kind of permit?<snip>



Has he lost his mind. How long before he is out of office. Dumb. His plan is an invasion of my privacy.

When I read that, I was so angry I was speechless. I've already sent an email via the link in the VCDL bulletin.

These "solutions" to 'protect us from people like Cho' by impeding the ability and the RIGHT to defend ourselves from people like Cho don't make any sense. What are they going to suggest if the next big incident doesn't involve firearms at all? What are they going to try to regulate then? The sale of fertilizer? Knives? Baseball bats? Gasoline (which they don't regulate well anyway)? Boards with nails in them? There are so many methods that a sicko can use to kill/maime from one to many people at a time, and everybody's focusing on the big bad gun. If these people had half a brain, they'd be even more dangerous than they already are.

Never understimate the power of stupid people in groups... or positions of authority.
