None of the good guys had a gun in that "gun free zone", but the murderer did. If the laws were to change as many want them to, that would be a microcosm of our entire country. To think that gun control laws limit criminal access to guns is as preposterous as the thought that a no guns sign keeps them out of a school.

For those that think gun control laws will keep guns out of the hands of criminals, I have but one question - how's that war on drugs going?

Amen to that.

It is frustrating that, having been around longer than some, I and others of my generation see the same old BS being brought out. It gets bought off on by the ignorant, not knowing that it is the same uneffective BS. All the time the problem just gets worse. There is no easy answer to this but for good men and women to step forward, with the means needed, to confront evil. And if needed, kill it. Until that happens this will continue. I hear young people espouse the same crap I bought into when I was their age. Just as I learned, they will someday wake up to the truth that not all human beings are good. This ignorance of how to confront evil is what is so frustrating. The mere fact that some folks have no qualms about stopping a neer-do-well POS will stop some of these incidents. The cold hard reality is that some people must be killed to stop them from their evil. Killing a man who wants to kill 6 year olds is noble; but along with that nobility is the wounds that accompany such action. No one truely wins this kind of ****, but if it saves little girls and boys the benefit far out weighs the risk. The greatest risk is when we eliminate the threat to the evil. What the hell would you expect given those circumstances.
