You can't ask for better. Who wants gun control? A multiple murderer!
'Son of Sam' killer: 'Take the glory out of guns'

NEW YORK (AP) — David Berkowitz, who shot and killed six people during a yearlong spree in New York City in the 1970s, says "society has to take the glory out of guns."

The "Son of Sam" killer lamented the recent mass shootings that left dozens dead in a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., and a Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wis. He spoke to the Daily News from Sullivan County Correctional Facility in upstate New York, the maximum-security prison where he's serving six consecutive 25-years-to-life sentences.

"I'm looking beyond gun control. That's for the legislators to wrangle with," Berkowitz, 59, said. "My hope is just that young people would understand just how terrible this violence is. When they use a gun against someone else, they ruin their lives too. It's not worth it."

Berkowitz, dubbed the ".44 Caliber Killer" for the gun he used, was arrested at his Yonkers home on Aug. 10, 1977, after he terrorized New York City over 13 months, killing six people and shooting seven others. Berkowitz later claimed his neighbor's dog ordered him to carry out the murders...

This is too cool!
