Mass shootings now average nearly two a week. They continue to happen faster than most people can keep track of how many times an anguished public cried out “Never again!” only to have it happen again and again and again.
This month marks the 10th anniversary of the slaughter of 20 first-graders and six educators at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., by a 20-year-old whose mother, his first victim that day, had bought him the weapon.
Next Feb. 14 marks five years since the massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland that left 14 students and three educators dead and 17 students wounded. |

Like it or not, we have a right to keep and bear arms. If you don't like that, please feel free to move to literally any other country in the world. This one is non-negotiable. But let me give you a small clue (your first one, perhaps!)... laws don't make bad guys stop doing bad things. Murder is already illegal. The people who murder don't care about laws... not even gun laws. Sorry to disappoint you.
You can't legislate guns out of existence any more than you can legislate hard drugs out of existence. Banning something, as it turns out, does not make that thing disappear! |
