"handing out guns to the entire populace" <<< AGAIN, where have I ONCE said that I want the 'entire populace' to have guns? Do you libtards have conversations within your own minds when talking to other adults? This is a straw man argument, a point or stance which I have never made. So you and your libtard father don't want to own guns?...FINE WITH ME. But don't tell every responsible gun owner on earth who wants to be able to defend themselves that they shouldn't have a gun you freak...

Well first of all DRUNK anything is more dangerous then not being drunk so you really have no point. Secondly, the Sandy Hook shooter stole the weapons from his mother (he didn't have a BG check or purchase weapons by himself). Thirdly, you anti-gun retards would love to call a cop (who has a gun) to come handle an intruder breaking into your house with a weapon, but you want to deny an actual homeowner to have a gun to deal with the intruder themselves. Gee that's some liberal logic 101...

Q. "How many children are injured and killed by guns owned in their own homes, each year?"

A. Less then the amount that drown in swimming pools each year (so when do we ban swimming pools?)

Q. "How many people are killed with their own guns, by intruders each year?"

A. Less then the amount of violent intruders that are killed by armed home owners each year.

BTW. I never said 'everyone' should have a gun. Nice straw man attempt tho...try again.

Redneck?? LOL. Try thinking before you respond....

I'm a Vietnamese immigrant living in NYC.

I just happen to have the apparently unique ability to think for myself and will not let the radicals in biased media do my thinking for me.

Morons like you on the other hand....

Also, what if one of the teachers was on heavy drugs that you equipped with guns? Say she just got hooked on a drug after a urine test and then decided to go loco and murder students with the gun they gave her? Hmmm? We do need gun control ,no question about it.

Hey redneck, I doubt highly giving the school staff guns would have prevented jack shit because the shooter CONCEALS his weapon and would have likely popped several kids before a sniper did anything. Probably would have been the same result. Not so with gun control.
