Quite right, all guns do is make the little holes.

I tend to agree with liberals on almost everything, in fact I consider myself one, but I really feel this is the one big blind spot. The problem is the proliferation of the culture of violence. That’s not the fault of gun access, but is a more general societal issue. I’d compare it to banning abortion. You’re not going to eliminate any problem, you’re just going to force it underground and make it more dangerous. No the real issue is deeper than just access to guns, and it’s time we treated it as such.

That’s what we know does not work for protecting students and staff.

We know what does NOT work–and we keep doing it!

Because we all now how much control you can assert over your environment with a sharpened spoon.
Guns don’t kill people, people kill people!

He’d been enrolled it the school until he was kicked out. He was looking for the head of the school to kill, and lined up and killed the others when he couldn’t find him. The stories are heartwrenching. One young mother made 4 calls to her parents as she lay dying.They were outside playing with her son. They said her husband is out of the country and doesn’t know yet. 🙁

Jesus. Who executes seven innocent and unknown people and then goes to the grocery store?

I don’t think governors do their own shopping, so…
