thanks for your feedback.. When you have your own children, you might form more of an opinion about. I am personally tired of hearing about school shootings. And the one where the little kids died was a little too close to home. I have my own 5 year old son. If something happened to him I would die. You don't understand the feeling because you don't have children. People who have guns and use them and think it protects them in reality are just a few steps from killing or being killed by them. Yes you can kill someone with a knife just as well as a gun. But the kind of mass murder that happens can only be achieved using firearms. Half of killing in home is caused by either a relative or someone you know. Yes there are shooting about Criminals and they usually just kill other criminals. Yes there are times when innocents die as well. That has been happening since dawn of time. There are always crazy people out there. But making it so easy to obtain guns is not the answer.
