"Apparently an illegal gun was used in both murders...gun laws failed to stop the crime."

Yes, it is shocking that the laws prohibiting the feds from tracking private sales of guns and who owns particular weapons somehow didn't track who owned the weapon.

Here is a little idea. How about we actually track ALL gun sales and ownership so we could have a chance of keeping some of these weapons out of the hands of minors and criminals. Someone sold these fine upstanding young men a weapon. Unfortunately, our laws aren't sufficient to have any chance of tracking that person down.

I find the reporting of a possible high ranking gang member use to live there very possible. NC has become a hot bed for those from other countries setting up shop here. Failure to secure our boaders ain't helping this none.

I've seen some "guns kill people" comments and all I can do is shake my head. A gun goes off 1 of 2 ways.....if it is someone's hands and the "someone" pulls the trigger or by dropping it while loaded..when they should have the safety button locked. These kids knew what they were doing when they committed the crime. Let's put the gun issue aside for a minute and think of the couple who lost their lives and their now orphaned children. I hope the 16 year old is charged as an adult, and a stiff sentence for the 15 year old.

so you just made up facts in your head and then apply them to all??? wow.. let me follow suit.. all white people are married to their cousins, live in trailer parks and are secretly a member of the KKK .. see not so nice when done to you?? stop judging an entire race of poeple based on a few or their skin color NiceNSmooth

I didn't make up numbers. I speak Spanish as a second language, have Hispanic friends who share their stories of crossing the boarder, work with the public, and have access to information regarding legal status. Trust me. My estimation is pretty dog-gone accurate.

"These are the people that helped to elect Barack Obama" Uh, no they're not. They're young teens and do not have the right to vote. This violence is not a political issue, it's a moral issue and some parents are just not doing right by their kids larterl

-agreed!!!

1) People assume they are illegal because such a great part of the Hispanic population in NC is. I don't have any hard facts, but I know it's way over 50%. I think probably closer to 80 - 90%.
