What gun control proposals you support would have helped the Newton CT children that were being slaughtered while waiting 20 minutes on the police to show up?

I bet we never get positive confirmation of the exact time line in Newtown. Think about it. If 20 minutes response time is correct from less than 1.5 miles away after reports of shooting in a school, how can any gun control issues be taken seriously. I watch that Deadliest Catch show on king crab fishing in the Bering Sea. If the ship is going down, the crew knows they have less than 60 sec to get into a survival suit to have ANY chance of survival. Otherwise, in 15 minutes.......YOU'RE DEAD. The police should have been on scene in flak suits in less than 4 minutes.....storming the school. When you see grossly overweight cops in flak suits with attack dogs on leash wandering around aimlessly hours after the attack, you realize those kids never had a chance. Has anyone been able to positively fix a time line??

Steve,

I would agree to the limit on bullets in magazines.

Who knows? If the shooter had to reload more often, a few more kids might have been able to run away during those moment.
