And since kids are not allowed to have guns at school, we already have laws dealing with the issue (but there are these people, we call em law breakers, who don't care what you or I think or what laws we pass).

Millions own guns, few use them to harm others. But just like with Islam and the RW folks whip up fear of the many based on the few.

Didn't like it after 9/11, don't like it when folks trot out the same things after someone does a crime with a gun either.
