"Assault Weapons" aren't back on their shelves. Might as well extend it to shotguns. Or better yet, you have to have a Background Check BEFORE you can ask to see a rifle or shotgun. Or maybe Joe Biden will now say its time to Ban Shotguns? Because you know, if the Government can pass a law that prevents just one death, they will do it... 05-stirthepot

Armed man kills self in Pa. sports store bathroom

FAIRLESS HILLS, Pa. (AP) -- Authorities outside Philadelphia have identified an armed man who barricaded himself inside the bathroom of a sporting goods store and killed himself.

Bucks County Coroner Joseph Campbell said Sunday that 58-year-old Mark McCarpy of Levittown died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the chest.

Authorities say he entered Dick's Sporting Goods in Fairless Hills after 7 p.m. Saturday and asked to see a shotgun and ammunition. McCarpy pulled out a handgun - later found to be unloaded - and ordered the worker to undo the shotgun's gun lock. He then barricaded himself inside a bathroom.

The store and nearby businesses were evacuated during the four-hour-long standoff. No one else was hurt.

Lt. Henry Ward says McCarpy had also been involved in a standoff with Middletown officers in 2002.

Put rubber bumpers and cow/people catchers on cars, imprison doctors and hospital workers that make a mistake, and just get all the government knows best decisions on the books. It's not just a nanny state, nanny wouldn't be so idiotic.

Would it make people any happier if he slit his wrists?
