Dykes was known in the neighborhood as a menacing figure who neighbors said once beat a dog to death with a lead pipe, threatened to shoot children for setting foot on his property and patrolled his yard at night with a flashlight and an assault rifle.
Arrington confirmed that Dykes held anti-government views, as described by multiple neighbors: "He's against the government -- starting with Obama on down."
"He doesn't like law enforcement or the government telling him what to do," the police chief said. "He's just a loner."

What in gods name kind of bad fireworks went off in this person's head that caused him to do this.
What in hell was wrong with his friends, coworkers, neighbors that allowed this loon to have so much as a butter knife, let alone a gun.
The police who showed up about the dog killing. Where were their brains. This is not the action of a person in their right mind.
What is worse is that this person has a history of bad acting.
He is what should have been baned, or at least placed in a padded cage.

(49,445 posts)So you want them banned, not because they are a threat, but because you don't like the kind of people that buy them.
Of course, the more you fight against them, the more the Red Dawn anti-govmint types want them and mobilize against you.

So admit that you are hoping and planning and trying to use the slippery slope.
