It is reported that two of the suspects in the Boston marathon bombing were in possession of 2 handguns and an “M4 carbine†and yet they were both residents of Massachusetts, a state with some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country. On top of that we can look to the laws that Massachusetts legislators have imposed upon its citizens and see how difficult it is for law abiding citizens in Massachusetts to legally obtain firearms. Now if you are a liberal or some other form of Socialist, Communist or Utopian you would think this makes the state safer. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, it became quite apparent this week that you don’t have to have a gun in Massachusetts to be deadly and even those who are suspected of using bombs had firearms and neither of the Tsarvaev brothers had a state issued license to purchase a firearm, yet they had them because, well that’s what criminals do; they break the law.

Well yes. This is one of the reasons liberal shitholes like Boston, Chicago, and NY are failures.
I must say that the people of Massachusetts are receiving the fruits of what they are allowing. Some will call me insensitive. That’s OK. I don’t mean my statements to be insensitive to victims who have lost their lives or those injured in the bombings. I’m referencing as a whole, people who have allowed their government to virtually disarm them, cause them to cower in fear and then be subjected to warrantless searches that wound make the Founders roll over in their graves.
Bullseye!

Charles Hurt, in the Washington Times, says pretty much the same thing.
HURT: Boston on wrong side of gun-control debate
ANALYSIS/OPINION:
BOCA GRANDE, Fla. — Some 4.5 million people around Boston cowered in their homes last week as an unknown number of heavily armed, mercilessly dangerous terrorists lurked in the dark outside, roaming the eerie stillness.
Most people were utterly defenseless and hid in their homes praying that local police or federal agents would get there before the hellbent killers who had proved their complete disdain for innocent life.
Just a glance at the thousands of security officers lining the route of the Boston Marathon earlier in the week, however, was clear evidence that no number of police can protect against all violence. It is why responsible people in Florida and other sane states own guns and know how to use them. In America, WE are the real first responders.
In Massachusetts — Boston specifically — politicians have enacted some of the toughest gun laws in the country to prevent responsible and law-abiding citizens from protecting themselves and their families from such evil. These laws, of course, apply only to those who obey laws. They do absolutely nothing to keep guns — or pressure-cooker bombs — out of the hands of terrorists who have no regard for laws.
That is why accused marathon bombers Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had no hesitation about obtaining and carrying numerous guns, according to police. Not to mention having other explosive devices that authorities are now calling “weapons of mass destruction.â€

The big news flash, which seems to need to be repeated over and over, is this:
Criminals don't obey any laws!
