Actually, when I started this thread it was meant to point out that a gun is an inanimate object, incapable of doing harm by itself. To evoke discussion on the political objectives that are driving the issue of gun control. And that the person is the problem.
Back and forth goes the gun issue, with each tragedy being used to justify removing more freedoms. Again, the objective of removing our guns existed long before these shootings. World history of the 20th century can show us that this is not the first time citizens have been asked for their guns. They want us to argue with each other. To spin our wheels until smoke obscures the solution. Notice how these folks went strait to gun control, before any of us had time to mourn? Then even criticized us, saying "prayers are not enough" after not taking the time to do so themselves. What if we actually solved some of the violence problems we face? By recognizing the psychological, chemical, social and parenting problems we know exist. Not to mention noting the unheeded warning signs. We could make great strides. But wouldn't THAT take some of the wind out of the gun control sails? Hmmmm!
