I'm racking my brain to try to concieve of any national school safety guidelines that could have stopped the NIU shooting and others. Just can't come up with one. Maybe it's time to try something else....... like allowing people to carry on campus.
Well, the new law could prohibit any type of airgun, firearm, folding stocks on slingshots, or anything that even looks like one within 2500 feet of an educational institution.
That should solve the problem, right?
How about implementing a 90 day waiting period? Dang, that would stop it.
Better yet, require gun locks on everything. That would slow things down a lot.
Man, I just don’t get it. How many years have we been doing this and how many gun restriction laws have been passed.. and I’ve yet to see one that made any difference outside of political gain or feel-good agenda. How many lives have been LOST to gun control? What would have been the death toll at VA Tech if only 5% of their students were carrying concealed?
I just don’t get it anymore.
