Give it up, less. Pretending you are stupid doesn't advance any argument.

Unless, of course, you are not pretending...

Your call.

On the off-chance you aren't pretending, google Marco Rubio. Or, for that matter, i-node's 'TSA solution'. I grant you some have gone off the deep end. But it isn't me.

And yes, more than 300 million guns owned by less than 100 million people. Not all of whom are responsible gun owners. And, the fact of the matter is that even the responsible gun owners have a lousy record of defending themselves, much less others. And you think it is a good idea to let anyone who owns a gun to carry it where ever they desire. And there is no way of knowing which ones are not all that responsible until they start mowing other people down.

Yeah. Brilliant plan. Some might say insane...

>>> "People are seriously proposing we turn our schools, and maybe every other place where people congregate, into highly secured and armed bunkers."<<<

Off the deep end but feel free to go as far out there as you like.


Well, it is the inevitable conclusion of arming teachers, or hardening schools with weapon carrying personnel. There are dozens of soft targets out there...we continue to twist in the wind with unworkable proposals to keep from doing the obvious...we need to curtail the types of guns allowed in the hands of citizens and control the use of those we allow ownership of.
