If gun control is the issue of why people are dying here then why is it people are being slaughtered in other countries with machetes? Is it the weapon or is it the cause specifically the mind set of these killers something society should be addressing but has not ethnic cleansing, people not receiving proper mental care, etc
If education and stricter licensing is the issue then why in the world would we allow two people to raise children who have not been properly prepared or educated. Parents can and do as much and perhaps more harm than a person bent on mass killing .
and if licensing and education are the issue then why would we allow just anyone to vote and without proper photo ID's
Gun control is a canard used by politicians when they don't care, don't have an answer, or simply want to garner votes.......and too many of us fall for it every time
