Did I say anything about justifying children dying every year? Is getting rid of guns going to stop children from dying every year? I think that the idea of children dying by being shot in schools is just an excuse for those that wish to impel their personal fears and beliefs on others. If they really cared about children they would not be so cavalier about ignoring the majority of citizens rights. If they really cared about the children's safety, they would protect them at the schools instead of attempting to change the masses to their will. Like I said before, harden the physical security and get over the idea of being able to stop mental illness. Murders have been committed since the beginning of mankind and it will never stop. Best way to stop murderers is to put them down when they commit the crime. The best way to protect is physical security. The best way to deter is to put fear into the Perp so they won't commit the crime to begin with. If someone wishes to break into my home to steal, they will NOT do so if they know I am home and armed. Why do they prefer females over males when they carjack? Because they fear strength in any form. They are cowards by nature and prey on the weak.
Like I said before, when you can show me where more folks are killed by guns than saved by guns, we can have an honest discussion on the subject of firearms.
