Porforis, then we put trained armed guards in each school.
That would greatly lower any possible violent crime.
Yes, it would cost. But if saving kids means taking away some music or sports activity to pay for it, which is more important?
It could be done, and it would work.

When you are talkig about someone that is 100% proven guilty of a crime like this, should they NOT have their life taken away?
I'm a conservative......yet if someone breaks into my home, and threatens me or my wife, am i supposed to just let them do whatever they want? Should i NOT shoot them if they try to attack because i'm a conservative?

Yes, they can be violent in prison - Then throw them in solitary. But granting government the ultimate right to determine who lives and who dies is far from a conservative stance.

Conservatives go off to war to protect our country. Should they not do that either? After all, it may mean killing someone.

Furthermore, how far do we take such a law (not that you were the one to suggest it)? If someone's legally carrying a firearm via concealed carry and gets into an altercation with someone but never touches the gun, should he be killed? What if he starts a fight out of his own stupidity, is getting his head pounded in, and pulls a gun to end the fight before his brains are splattered over the pavement? Does killing someone in either of these circumstances seem reasonable and just?

I think all that is being asked for by concerened citizens is that automatic weapons are eliminated, yet right away all the freaks come out with their rhetoric about doing away with the 2nd ammendment. It's this over-reaction and refusal for a discussion that irritates me, and it is the same thing with the need to raise our current taxes.

Gee whiz, here I thought everyone that mattered (President Obama, congressional Democrats) wanted to reinstate the federal assault weapons ban which would regulate everything from a folding or telescoping stock to a pistol grip, barrel shroud, threaded barrel, semi-auto pistols that weigh more than 50oz when unloaded.

Gee whiz, I guess I've just been silly. Here they just wanted to take machine guns away from private citizens.

But I understand your confusion. My wife was actually watching the ABC station WTVO at the time.
