For criminals or law abiding citizens?

Yeah I thought murder was already illegal. I must have been mistaken.

Another safe gun-free zone.

You'll notice, of course, that events like this never happen at police departments or gun shows. Just where everyone is "safely" unarmed.

When will they connect the dots?

So, without knowing any facts about the incident, Mr Obama knows for sure that whatever incremental assault on our God given constitutionally protected right to self defense tools he was planning and touting yesterday are now desperately needed despite having no logical connection to whatever the crime will turn out to be.

Is this a man representing a free people or a man trying to advance the cause of totalitarianism?

Don’t forget to toss in the possibility that the perp “hated” someone thus making the act even more heinous. I really don’t like these people. Inanimate objects bad. Perps——meh!

A couple of silly questions:

Why did the shooter not obey existing gun laws (including the ones against murder)?
Why would prospective shooters obey future laws? Are they any better than the old ones?

OK, if they want tougher gun laws, lets start with the first one. I propose the Second Amendment be amended, to have “and any attempt to do so shall be punishable by death.” appended to the text.

IMHO, these mass shootings at schools would stop in a heartbeat if it be known that some of the teachers in every school in the country were well trained shooters, and it were know that several of the personnel in each school were armed.
