he's saying that if you can transfer responsibility for jfk's death to the supplier of the gun in that case, then you can just as well transfer responsibility(or kudos) for the stopping of the ft. hood nut to the supplier of the weapon used to do that job-legitimacy of the wielding agent's authorizations notwithstanding-

There are appropriate and inappropriate uses for guns, just as there are appropriate and inappropriate ways of obtaining them.

The law enforcement officer who performed so heroically at Ft. Hood is an example of both appropriate use and appropriate provenance. As a duly sworn officer of the law, she obtained her weapon legitimately and used it to protect the public welfare. Oswald, on the other hand, obtained his rifle in the most casual of ways and used it in the most heinous.

you are correct, sad thing is that it is so easy to legally get a gun for use in malice.

Discovery Channel is going to reveal new information about the assassination of JFK this Sunday. From what little I've been hearing it ought to be pretty interesting.

It seems that all networks that start out as hard science wind up with dopey shows after a few years.
