If the article is correct, no gun control would have stopped this guy:

"Court records show Garner has no previous criminal record in Oregon, only a speeding and parking ticket and driving while using a cellphone."

I wasn't trying to make an argument about this incident in particular just the issue of guns in America generally. I should have made that clearer.
