| There is only one way to stop this from happening again. Police officers should not take their weapons home. Weapons should be turned in at the end of their shift. Most countries already do this. It is time for the United States to join the rest of the world. |

| Police often exercise less safety than the civilian population. Why, why? didn't this father teach the 10 yr daughter the rules and respect for gun safety?? |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Secrecy is the keystone of all tyranny. Not force, but secrecy ... censorship. When any government, or any church, for that matter, undertakes to say to it's subjects, 'This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know,' the end result is tyranny and oppression, no matter how holy the motives. Mighty little force is needed to control a man whose mind has been hoodwinked; contrariwise, no amount of force can control a free man, a man whose mind is free. No, not the rack, not fission bombs, not anything. You cannot conquer a free man; the most you can do is kill him." --Robert A. Heinlein, "Revolt in 2100" (Pg. 68-69, Baen Books paperback edition, 1999 printing) |
