Are you referring to the fatal school shooting in Georgia? Isn't it terrific how willing students, teachers, and school workers are to die so the NRA and the GOP can protect the rights of shooters? No Harry. I am not referring to that. Lighten up a bit, will you? It's not so bad. I was confused too. I did see the media immediately jumping back on the ban the "AR 15 and semi auto handgun" bandwagon until it was pointed out this kid used a shotgun and a revolver. (plus some bombs if the reports are right) What were you referring to? I heard some calls for prosecuting the shooter's dad for leaving the firearms easily accessible. There's some justice to be found there. If you have firearms and kids in the house, the firearms should be kept locked or out of easy reach of the kids. I don't have kids around the house, but I keep my firearms except for one locked away, and the one that isn't is not in plain sight. I don't have any that are not locked up in some way and nothing is in sight that would even hint I have a gun. That still would not keep a 17 year old who knew about them from finding one if they really wanted to. Locks, particularly that stupid trigger lock, is just a puzzle for a kid. I have a pretty substantial looking trigger lock that came with that Saturday night special I bought (Jennings 9). With nothing but a paper clip and a little screwdriver I had it open in a few minutes, less than 10 seconds once I knew the trick. That was without leaving a mark. If I was willing to trash the lock, there are at least a dozen tools in the garage that would get it off, one way or another. |

This was not a 5 year old. Was the kid diagnosed as a mental case? If so, did the psychology professional contact the police about murderous rages? If not, prosecute the “mental health professional”. |
