It would be very easy to jump onto the "reasonable gun laws" argument. The problem is, when has the left ever been about "compromise" or "reasonable" or working together?

One must accept that the left wants no guns, period.

Personally, I don't own or shoot AR type rifles or what the media calls "Assault weapons." However, I support a person's right to own one provided that they are otherwise not prohibited from having a firearm. If I don't support them, who will support my activities when they are targeted next?

If you ban these type of weapons, only criminals will have them. Or, the next lunatic will simply use a pump-action, lever-action or what have you. Then the left will say "we want those too."

We as a country, need to get to the root cause of the problem, which in my opinion is mental illness and an overly medicated and soft population.

Deranged people are going to kill, no matter the method. We see it in Europe and elsewhere, swords, cars, trucks. etc.

Just my take...
