Carrying should be a privilege as well as a right with all the responsibilities inherent in that.

i am totally with you on that

while i see the 2nd amendment as absolute, i do not believe the founders could have foreseen the ability of crazies to have such easy access to firearms...(see Message 23470707 piece by penn and teller)

i'm very much in favor of a very high bar (meaning background testing, wait time, proficiency testing) to get firearms in the *right hands* and once that bar has been met, the right to carry

the only thing i can see that could have mitigated cho's murder spree was potentially a well trained, armed professor or student

btw,

yet another killing in a 'gun free zone' (what a farce)

at least the guy didn't go 'postal' and run his victim tally into massacre proportions
