all of that may be true.... but if your saying that psychiatric drugs cause kids to shoot up their classmates.... doesnt it still make sence to make it a bit harder for those "psychotic" kids to get their hands on a gun

[JustSayNoToGuns]

Theres a difference between weed and guns. You do realize that nobody has died from weed before... 0 recorded deaths. yet how many die from guns? 30 a day in america!

The sad thing is that every one of the shootings listed occured in gun free zones where gun control advocates got their way.

Your policies enable the problem, and then you blame it all on law abiding gun owners.

You guys remember the omaha mall shooting? That mall had no gun signs posted. There was a guy in that mall when the gunman came in and started shooting. This man had a CCW but, lawfully, left his gun in the car. He was 30 feet from the gunman and had a clear shot with no one behind the gunman to worry about. He could have taken this guy out and saved lives, but was not allowed.The gunman killed 8 wounded 5 and then killed himself. Law abiding citizens are not the problem, they are the solution.

More ppl die in car accidents alone than by guns. I wouldnt mind riding a bike anyway. I say cars are more dangerous. Y don't we ban cars instead??

The tragedy that these shootings have in common is that all of the victims were stripped of their ability to defend themselves against the murdrer. If you truly believe that a new law will help, then why didn't the "weapon free zone" sign on all schools stop the shooters in their tracks? A murdrer is there to kill someone. Adding new laws only restricts those that are NOT murdrers.

HAHAHAAA! All of the places where shootings happen are where LAW ABIDING CITIZENS are not allowed to carry their firearms. And seriously, if you Anti gun idiots even want to come close to curbing anyone to the anti gun side, how about you stop using stupid ten year old words like 'clip' and 'bullets', When there are correct, big boy and girl words, like magazine and projectile.

Many people don't realize this but guns were not always banned from schools. Many schools had gun clubs and ranges in the basement and guess what? There were no rampage shootings because schools were not considered to be an easy place to kill lots of people by the psychopaths. If someone snaps and wants to kill as many as possible they are going to go where nobody else has a gun. Seriously, is that a hard concept to grasp?

[Jazepentz]

Another point. Banning ugns obviously has no impact on whether a criminal gets a gun. Convicted felons are already banned from having guns, yet they go out and get them with no trouble at all. In fact if you look at what it takes to get a gun in California, compaired to what it takes for a criminal to get one, the criminal has it a lot easier. Gun bans and restrictions only affect the people who obey the laws, not the criminals. to think otherwise is just naive

did you think I was being argumentative? I think that Gun Free Zones are one of the most idiotic things a business owner can do for their business. Their are businesses that pay good money to have armed guards in their businesses. You know the funny thing about that is that most of those guards don't even have the same skills with a firearm that the average CCW holder does. Why turn away free, discreet, skillful security. Souns like bad business to me.

Doesn't anybody notice that all these incidents happened after Bill Clinton's administration banned civilian pocession of firearms on public school campuses?

[norcofreerider604]

It will end when there is a universally accepted CCW/OCW system and no gun free zones.

Ever wonder why these horrible incidents happen in "GUN FREE ZONES"? Maby because these people know that they will go and commit these acts unchallenged. Some colleges in the US allow their students and faculty to carry concealed handguns. Why hasent there been any horrible accidents at those schools? Blame the gun and you will never stop killing, find out what got these people to the point of killing and you will save lives.
