VA TECH Part III--Governor Kaine's Ban on Sale
Thank God Governor Kaine had the sense to sign an executive order which closed the loop-hole by which the shooter at VA TECH was able to purchase guns even though he was declared dangerously mentally ill by a court in Virginia.
The ban covers the sale of guns to individuals who have been involuntarily committed to impatient or outpatient mental health treatment.
One has to ask: If this executive order had been in place, would the killings have taken place?
One will never know but at least Governor Kaine has the sense to put this ban into law.
