Brains with human body containers initiate the killings. Guns do not have brains no matter how terrible the crime. If man wants to destroy man there are many ways of doing so. If a brain is disturbed who is in charge of that brain? I deplore what has taken place and pray that swift justice is done for the loss of life or injuries. Rik Riley

i am against murder period.guns do make it easier to offend or defend------but knives are used in many murders also---probably more murders with knives than guns--not that i desire to be murdered but if someone was allowed by G-D to murder me---i'd sooner have my brains blown out and die quick than be cut up bad enough to bleed to death over a couple of hours while waiting to be found or rescued.

you would have to take away guns knives swords baseball bats rocks cars etc. etc. to rid the earth of possible weapons.

my own experiences have been that people driving cars and boats and snowmobiles have used them as a weapon to intimidate me to get out of their way(when i was doing nothing illegal) or die-- more so than others using weapons we consider more conventional.

No, no, that makes too much sense, we need to government to take the guns away and in turn protect us. I will bow down before them if need be, just please all knowing government officials, save me.

I dont mean to sound cold, my thoughts and prayers go out to those hurt and their families. However here is a little more amunition for the gun grabbers. Sorry to the people that said guns should be done away with but you are *WRONG*! As stated if someone would have been excersising their constitutional right and had some give a damn for taking care of themselves this person could have been put down. But the great state of illinois is about as conducive to gun rights as Nazi germany. Which should show you idiots that in a state where guns are hard as hell for law abiding citizens to get, and CCW permits are not issued stuff like this still happens.

My gun goes with me everywhere, it is as important as taking my wallet with me. If something like this I would do whatever I could to stop it, police cant be everywhere, I would even help you mentally challenged people that think that gun control would work. Although maybe it would be wise for your gene pool to be dried up, you are already standing in the shallow end.

More guns in the hands of law abiding citizens equals less crime. If a criminal knows that people carry guns concealed he is going to change his tactics. That is why in states and areas that have high numbers of CCW permits there is more petty theft then violent crime. Doesnt that make sense to anyone? One would think if your brain was functioning properly you could see that. I am all for peace, but by god the day and age we live in I am not willing to let myself, my family, or some innocent person become a statistic to a violent crime.

You anti gun people just make me mad as hell, you are playing right into the hands of complete government control. Take a history class, look at what happens when brutal dictators take over a country, one of the first things that is done is disarming citizens. They are turned into slaves!

I have heard that argument so many times, but for me it does not do anything, but show your lack of understanding. We will have to agree to disagree.
