Sorry, but people with guns are going to kill. Or they want to.
It's time to get guns off the streets. It happens every day, all the time, stop the violence.

People misusing their rights is no reason to take mine.
The biases of all law is that your rights end when they start interfering with the rights of others, especially when it’s a “frivolous right” vs a “fundamental right”. So the publics “frivolous right” to own certain types of weapons ends when those weapons become a danger to the “fundamental rights” of others to be safe in their person. If you guys want to keep your “Frivolous rights” then you better start lobbying so keep irresponsible people from having access to this type of equipment. In other words, if you are a gun advocate, you should be lobbying for stricter controls on who can own guns, not more lenient ones. Something that the NRA is going to eventually learn the hard way.

Six children are dead because of a gun.
And defending guns in this is defending the actions of the person with the gun.
Six children are dead because if a gun.
So, why, why do we defend implements of mass destruction?
Sorry, but idiots with guns kill people.

Too bad they didn't have concealed carry permits...that would have TOTALLY prevented this from happening.

This is just another reason for strong gun control. Let's watch and see that the perpetrator had a legally obtained firearm. I'm almost willing to bet.

Police cant prevent crime, why would one assume that open carry would?

Police openly tell you that they are not there to prevent crime or protect you. They are merely law enforcement in this day and age. The days of protect and serve are long gone.
