The discussion on how it can be stopped will surely turn political, gun control. I will gladly discuss it but the creator of this thread specifically asked that we not do that in this thread.
Please start a thread in political on stopping this sort of crime and I will gladly post my ideas there.

I don't think the discussion has anything to do with gun control. I just think that people who post pictures of our lawmakers in their "crosshairs" with a picture of a rifle, need to be held accountable. Surely, anyone can see that gun imagery like that (not related to gun rights) directed at members of one particular political party, sends a hateful message that fuels and motivates the crazies out there. I also think tabloid news stations like Fox and the political extremeists are way out of line with their rhetoric, which does nothing but divide the country. Hate has never been the answer and never will be.
