This was tragic and it breaks my heart but I say as a leader how about we think and not react with our heart? How many deaths a year are by guns? By drinking and driving? By gang fights? Knives? Drugs? Domestic violence? Why are we so fixated on guns? IMO it's because folks want to limit our rights because they feel the need to control others and nothing is sacred anymore. This murderer could have used a knife, crossbow, pipe bomb, fire or whatever to kill kids and adults and I seriously doubt if ole dufus and his cronies would have jumped in as much as they have. Why would they? They have nothing to gain but this is different because it was a gun and in their eyes guns kill people and it helps their agenda.

I changed the channel as soon as I saw the potus on tv. He had nothing to say that I wanted to hear. I'm with Mark on my feelings about this tool plus I cannot say what I want to say since it would violate the rules of this board. I will say that he and his rich supporters and appointed nutjobs are for gun control and they will use every opportunity to push their agenda.


BTW...doesnt he get an opportunity to appoint a few Supreme Court Judges??
If all the adults at that school had been armed, there would have been a different outcome. The guy didn't have to have a gun to kill those children; he could have used a knife, a machete, a hammer, crowbar, and the list goes on. I don't think the idiots who want to take away our guns even get "it." I'm so sorry about all those children and adults being killed but taking away our guns won't stop the deaths of children. Sat. night a 16 year-old got killed in a knife fight, and the boy he was fighting with is in the hospital with stab wounds. At a high school 9 miles from my house, a 17 year-old boy was killed in a shooting as he turned his car around in a parking lot; last week a 17 year-old, same class, was killed when her boyfriend made a sudden turn in front of a loaded log truck; a little 9 year-old boy who is my cousin's step-grandson was killed when he rolled his dad's new 4-wheeler as he rode it ALONE two weeks ago. Obama doesn't have the answer and neither does anyone else.
