My coworker was shot 6 years ago in our hospital by a mentally ill patient. The only change is metal detectors at the door. The patient legally purchased the gun. <br /><br />Guns are a part of our society. You can put up as many laws as you want, but there will always be a black market while the good guy is unarmed. Tracking the gun owners is a start, but we also track all prescription narcotics and there are still overdose deaths.<br /><br />The journalism aspect also leaves me disgusted. I haven't watched television or looked at a news site as I'm disgusted with the coverage. I pray for those involved and their families, but no need to rehash every detail endlessly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721171044050776789.post-81455807177873645242012-12-17T11:13:45.860-05:002012-12-17T11:13:45.860-05:00I think that ammo restriction might be the answer ...I think that ammo restriction might be the answer that could get anti gun control lobbyists on board. A registry where all ammo transactions are entered and you can only by som much ammo within a certain period of time. It woulod also allow police officers to scan the database to look for any unusual activity. Not a per fect solution but one I think most sane people could live with. After all how many deer are you going to shoot on a hunting trip?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721171044050776789.post-80019059065486202732012-12-17T10:55:23.535-05:002012-12-17T10:55:23.535-05:00I want to balance things.

The Founding Fathers were right that if people do not have weapons, and the goverment does, tyranny can result.<br /><br />By that logic, I should have a battery of Patriot missles in my backyard and a suitcase nuke in the closet.<br /><br />I don't because we do have some reasonable laws. (And I DON'T want them!) How about banning assualt-type rifles outright? They are no good for hunting, and are just man-killers.<br /><br />Let's start there.Ms. Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11945753071493117365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721171044050776789.post-82118505840929352432012-12-17T07:08:48.665-05:002012-12-17T07:08:48.665-05:00It all just doesn't bear thinking about - I wa...It all just doesn't bear thinking about - I want to cry thinking about those poor families faced with Christmas next week. <br /><br />In the UK post-Dunblane gun security was increased. It hasn't stopped the small rampages but it has meant that only one gun, usually one that can only shoot single bullets, is involved. The same has happened in Germany. Noone should be able to have a machine-gun type weapon. I live in northern Italy where every man and his dog goes hunting. I can't remember a similar incident so it is possible to allow that. The recent murder attempts here have been with kitchen knives or hammers.<br /><br />It was reported here in Europe that local gun shops in Newport had had several people in asking about getting a gun for personal security. I may be a bit thick - but how do they believe that would have helped???????Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02684985554953836607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721171044050776789.post-23029816290013065112012-12-16T19:16:23.543-05:002012-12-16T19:16:23.543-05:00I should have added the idea of arming teachers to...I should have added the idea of arming teachers to the post. <br /><br />ARE THEY FUCKING NUTS? <br /><br />Just what we need - more bullets whizzing around classrooms, going through doors and hitting "collateral damage." You've seen other people drive - now you want them SHOOTING GUNS? Under pressure?<br /><br />Gah, I can feel my BP creeping up again. ;)ER's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03203520439121823165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7721171044050776789.post-40925856919254479112012-12-16T19:02:31.461-05:002012-12-16T19:02:31.461-05:00Agree, agree.

I start crying every time I think of it.<br /><br />I know Australia made some changes after a particularly bad mass shooting and there haven't been any since, even though they can still own guns. It's fine that people own a gun (well, I don't love it, but I know it won't change), but they shouldn't be able to own what are basically machineguns that fire large amounts of bullets at once. I hope at least we can back the restrictions that were started under Clinton. Please let at least one positive thing come out of this.Fizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11989684741783903947noreply@blogger.com
