Mental health must be addressed.  All the shooters in these horrific crimes had mental issues.

Stiffer gun law control will not stop sick people.  Instead of trying to fix the gun control laws we need to try to fix broken people.  Let's take a look at what is being done for mental patients and how we can assist their parents/caretakers.  Guns have been a part of our heritage for centuries.  It is only recently that…

After the horrific tragedy in Connecticut the Democrats will for sure begin a dialogue to repeal or alter the second amendment.  This will not stop the violence.  People who are determined to commit a horrible crime will find a way to buy guns on the "black market", this would be even more dangerous  to law…

The liberal's mantra is "Let no good tragedy go to waste." That is a shame!

This is not about guns!  This sick individual did not own any guns.  What are we going to do next, prohibit the family of mentally ill people from owning guns “just in case”??? Nobody is paying attention to all the signs of this young man’s mental illness, but worse, no one is willing to accept…

We are a country with the right to bear arms.  I think most reasonable people do not begrudge the hunter or the woman who wants to carry a pistol to protect herself.  Or a rifle for sport. But, we…

An intelligent response would look like this: Governors should be appointing commissions to study school safety and eventually a national conference should be held; knee-jerk action to enact favorite legislation of advocacy groups would be a mistake.

Apparently Adam Lanza had enough ammo on hand to kill everyone in that school. One and only one thing stopped him. He stopped shooting little children and turned his gun on himself when he heard the police WITH GUNS coming after him. It is reasonable to assume that if that principal or any of the…
