I think we get the horror of Newtown. I don't think the author's embellishments were really necessary.

It does serve the notion of "We have to do SOMETHING!" though.

I don't like how the focus has shifted away from mental health issues to guns. But maybe Big Healthcare is a bigger Goliath than the NRA is. :dunno:

I think its wrong to make the address of gun owners public.. I've always been told not to advertise whether I do or do not own a gun.. Many crooks, violent or not will break into homes they know have guns.. High Value and Light Weight!!

I just watched an interview on CNN with Hadiya Pendelton's parents.  They were guests of honor of Michelle Obama at last night's State of the Union address.

They said they are not against the 2nd amendment in the sense of hunting because they have family that hunt's.  The Dad said even though he recognizes the need for our military to have assualt rifles they should not be on our streets.

His daughter was killed by a thug using a handgun.  :(

I can't imagine what these parents are going through and my heart pours out to them.  

Shame on the Obama administration for using this tragedy to advance their agenda.  They have the guy railing against assualt style weapons when the weapon used was a handgun. :angry:

Are you suggesting that he  can only oppose the exact type of weapon that killed his daughter?

How about not dancing in the blood of the victims and do not oppose any type of firearm.  The firearm didn't do the killing, but some whacked out POS who should have been in a mental facility is the one that did the killing.

You show me one of these politicians that does not do this. Our govt. in itself has become a dog and pony show. Reality is out the window. :(

Yes they are all in it for themselves

I did get to meet Wellstone once, I didn't agree with any of his ideology but he did strike me as a "stand up" guy. Maybe the only honest politician there was in our modern era.

What we have in Washington now are nothing more than opportunist.

He was a stand up guy. Problem was, he did not fit the theme of the day. Bush thingys. I remember George Sr. saying about his being against involvement in Iraq, " who is that chickensh!t?"

Yes, and now his name is a verb.

Let that be a message to any of you other Congress Critters thinking of developing a conscience.
