Grow up.
MKULTRA was a failed attempt by the CIA to create unconscious assassins for "wet work" during intelligence operations - not to shoot up schools, malls, or movie theaters.

I have no reason to believe these killings have anything to do with MKULTRA
but lets not act like our government is above doing such things. Do not underestimate the evilness of the suits that roam the halls of Washington.
Think Langley as the heart of darkness that had spawned schemes like MKULTRA, not Washington. And, while deaths may have occurred from the operation, they were not planned; while the whole idea of being able to brainwash someone, then turn them on to be an assassin later down the road in fact was never achievable.
-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer
Tell that to Bobby Kennedy.
I know of the conspiracy theories concerning Sirhan Sirhan having been turned into an unconscious assassin. While I think there's plenty of evidence that both the Kennedy brothers had been murdered as a result of conspiracies, I've only seen little more than theories about Sirhan and MKULTRA, and no real hard evidence. I think it more likely that Arab nationalist Sirhan had been played as a patsy by persons wanting to see Bobby Kennedy dead, and he was left holding the bag.

And the same just might be the case for James Holmes and Adam Lanza.
I can understand extremists in the margins of the intelligence community seeing violence as a means to remove leaders like the president of the United States, and his brother, the former Attorney General, but what would be gained by killing movie goers and school children?
-Bill, otherwise known as Kraichgauer
Psychological warfare on the populace necessary to the plan of SEELE/The Conspirators/Whoever.
But with the assassinations of the Kennedy brothers, and MLK, the fingerprints of intelligence couldn't be wiped away adequately (Oswald's alleged Soviet Union defection and association with CIA connected Anti-Castro fanatics in New Orleans, James Earl Ray's apparently arranged passports and false identities, etc.). I see nothing of the sort with Holmes and Lanza.

Absolutely. A "concerned citizen" in the mold of Jack Ruby would have popped him before he could talk.

i know this is only massachusetts but mass has just about the toughest gun laws in the nation.if this is the most mass will do i would imagine other states would be more lenient.to clarify im not saying i support more guns but if this is the worst even the" people's republic" (as they say in mass) will do,that isnt to to bad

Killing all the birds in one shot.
Unfortunately, I've hearing rumors (or rumours) that the new AWB law will not have a grandfather cause, if you are referring to that. Or any gun control measure for matter. Also, Obama may try to sign the UN small arms treaty by executive Order. I really hope the President can't pull this off.
If that turns out to be the case, I wonder would there be retroactive legislation on the weapons that originally fell under the "grandfather clause?" I could see a legal nightmare ensuing with all the new forms, notifications to people to forfeit possession under penalty of law and the beat cops that would have to locate everyone and confiscate the firearms. I personally don't see it working smoothly. In the end, I don't care one way or another. If I have to surrender them, I will. I like the idea of not having to be in a cage deprived of Internet access, industrial music and most importantly TACOS too much. Hopefully, they'd be nice enough to give you a voucher for turning them in, so as to at least recoup some of the money (an M2 from prior to 1986, a Soviet-era AK-47 and a FlaK are quite expensive). Frankly, I'm tired of hearing people drone on about how our President is so evil and how he wants to run the country like a dictatorship...

We're talking hypotheticals and the proposals go much further than the 1994 law.
and what did that law accomplish? Was there no gun crime or random shootings?
The question is, was there LESS gun crime or random shootings? I don't think anyone believes that there's a 100% foolproof solution that would prevent any future shootings or violent acts. But if a solution might not be 100% effective, but might be partially effective, then isn't it worth considering?
Look at it from another point of view. The United States does not seem to have a 100% foolproof way of preventing guns from reaching Al Qaeda. Does that mean we should not do everything in our power to try and prevent guns from reaching Al Qaeda anyway? Should we do anything less when the threat is domestic and the threat is generally more real than a domestic attack by Al Qaeda?
The answer is no. Gun crime has actually gone down across the board. "Assault weapons" are pretty irrelevant as far crime goes, even if there was a rise in some places it would probably be more related to the recession. Random shootings are such aberrations, it's hard to measure but the most notable school shooting of all time happened during the AWB.
As for Al Qaeda, if we want to prevent Al Qaeda from receiving guns then we probably should stop directly arming them.
As in VC spike, I forgot what source it was but some scholar thought that the Englishmen and women should be able to own firearms.
Allowing the riots to largely burn out was a good idea (for police) given the alternative was to send in troops and crush it, which would play into their hands and ignite more resistance....

exactly. Mao, Hitler, Pol Pot, Stalin... They all loved their gun control, and look at what they did.
LOL. The average dude in USSR had a weapon and knew how to use it due to the civil war. Hell, there's a bunch of WWII era weapons in a bunch of Soviet bloc countries I believe that the USSR & allied government didnt really care to put up.
Hell, Hitler came out of a bunch of right-wing militias and revived the concept later on in WWII.
China Cambodia did not have as many weapons anyway, lol

massachustts law enforcement wants access to mental health records for processing gun lisences.
but here is the good news.
if someone with autism,depresion or whatever is working with a doctor and taking there medication,disability is no bar to gun ownership
That will probably meet resistance in court from the mental health community, both advocates and professionals alike.

So what you're saying is, mental health professionals would challenge a law allowing people on meds to buy guns. That's reasonable. They can buy guns after passing through withdrawal. Yes, the recent killer
has AS, but he was on meds, and had a personality disorder. At least half of mass shootings are caused by people on meds, not simply by "assault weapons" with high capacity magazines.
Now, challenging a law allowing for the arming of unmedicated aspies would be a different story.

in massachusetts your towns police chief decides who get a mass FID card.the second amendment forces the chief of police to give a class c and class b fid to anyone who isnt a felon.the class A fid is at the chief of police and investigating detetives discretion.the second amendment doesnt give you the right to conceal the weapon.if new law takes affect the 2nd amendment would force the chief to give the class C and class B to anyone taking needed responability for there mental health.doctors would have no say ones gun eligability.the cheif would asign a detective to investigate if person is taken responablity for there mental health.

detectives would investigate if one was seeing a doctor and taking meds if needed and then simply reporting the facts back the the chief of police.the doctors would have no say unless one was imediatley homocidal or suicidal.the doctor cant lie because then the police would wonder why they wernt commited
