After every shooting like this, it's the same reaction. Ban guns so it's safer. Obviously, this hasn't worked as the shootings continue and people are killed or injured. Even if someone would've had a gun at Sandy Hook there still may have been chlidren and adults killed or injured, but many lives if not all of them would have been saved. One life lost is one too many, but lives definitely would have been saved if the teachers and adminstrators had been armed. If someone is obsessed with killing, they'll use whatever means they have, including baseball bats and vehicles. It doesn't matter to them. We need to look at the bigger picture and see how we can better protect ourselves and our children. There's more to this than just getting more guns. We need to get the guns in the hands of the good guys and gals. They have the power to help protect our kids and our community.

Good job. We are organizing parent volunteer security guards with guns at our schools.

We need to look at the bigger picture and see what can be done to stop this kind of thing before it starts in the first place. There's more to this than just getting more guns.
