Upping the penalty for gun crimes is far more effective than gun control.

In fact, in one of those school yard instances a teacher had to run to his car (which was parked the legal distance) to get his gun. During the interim the shooter killed several. When the teacher returned he brought down the shooter. The law not only didn't stop the shooter but it ensured that he killed more.

I had no idea of that status, but I am pleased by your adulation!

The only people you will disarm are people who obey the law to begin with. I can just hear a convicted felon coming out of prison and saying, boy, I sure wish it was still legal to buy a gun. Darn. I'll have to get me a tree limb or something to bash someone with. Personally, I feel better being armed. Someone breaks into my house, I would like to be at least as well armed as the crook.
