Yo, Cindy. All of the examples of gun violence you cite occured in places where law abiding citizens were forbiden to carry their own firearm.

I wondered what hole she crawled into after she left the Atlanta Journal Constitution. We never see the end of these people, do we?

BAN FENCE POST, CARS, KNIVES, BASEBALL BATS, SCREWDRIVERS THEY KILL TOO.

April 11, 1989 changed my world forever.

MY 16 YEAR OLD SON JEREMY, HE WILL ALWAYS BE 16 THANKS TO A SOCIO PATHIC KILLER, WHO JUST WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT FELT LIKE TO KILL ANOTHER PERSON. HE CHOSE MY CHILD AS HIS TARGET AMBUSHED AND BEAT HIM TO DEATH WITH A 2 FT SECTION OF FENCE POST.

AND CONSIGNED ME TO ETERNAL PAIN IN MY HEART! HE NOW ROAMS FREE AFTER ONLY A FEW YEARS BEHIND BARS, THANKS TO THE INJUSTICE SYSTEM IN TENNESSEE, AND BILL GIBBONS THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY THAT OVER SAW THE CASE. EVERY YEAR OF WHICH I HAD TO FIGHT FOR! GUNs ARE NOT THE ONLY WEAPON TO KILL, I’VE BEEN WAITING ON THE FENCE POST BAN FOR 22 YEARS! MORE YEARS THAN MY CHILD LIVED!

BTW I CCW BECAUSE OF THIS, AS WELL AS I LIVE IN MEMPHIS, TN, CRIME CAPITOL OF THE STATE.

Despotism carries a distinct aroma. For me it is the aroma of pooled blood on dusty concrete. Much pooled blood. The memory of it will never leave me. I was there. “Shook hands with the Devil,” and did my time in those places. The Congo, Liberia, Zaire...Nobody will ever convince me free men would be better off defenseless, and dependent upon the “kindness of strangers.”

It has been 46 years -- nearly a half-century -- since Charles Whitman, a troubled ex-Marine, climbed atop the iconic University of Texas Tower to use it as a staging zone for a shooting spree.

I loved Harry Chapin's song/story writing skills.

one nurse I know knew karate, yet was raped because she “froze” when attacked.

Twenty percent of the US Army in world war II were found to never have shot their guns despite being in battle. Training has improved, but not eliminated that percentage.

Unless your mindset is “attack mode”, and unless you have had training to do things automatically in times of emergency, you often freeze, be it civilians confronted with a car accident, or a civilian confronted with a thug who wants to kill him.
