    None of the proposed legislation OR THE EXECUTIVE ORDERS would have prevented any of the shootings. GUNS don't kill people, PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE. Should we ban CARS???...some people have used them to kill people! EVERY shooter in the last school shootings either surrendered or shot themselves when someone entered the picture that was a "THREAT" to THEM..and those people were people with GUNS! Every school should be ARMED much like that of the SKY MARTIALS on airplanes. You don't know EXACTLY WHO is armed until they're needed. Principals, teachers, custodians, support staff....ANYONE (& there should be multiple people in the schools who are armed at all times) who goes thru a gun training course that is ongoing to remain certified to "carry" should be able to carry or be in possession within the school zone, a gun to protect themselves and our children. AND TAKE DOWN THE "NO GUN ZONE" signs. I have a burglar alarm with 2 signs in my yard that says I have an alarm, but I WOULD NOT put a sign on my home that said I have no guns! It's only common sense! Look at the 506 gun murders in Chicago...a city with NO armed citizens except the police. I guess the CRIMINALS DIDN'T GET THE MEMO that it was a gun free zone!! And if every citizen obeyed the law,we wouldn't be calling them CRIMINALS now would we? CRIMINALS don't follow the rule of law!...only law abiding citizens follow the law.

    ReverePaul...I see how much is done about "drinking" but how do you explain the current back ground check, etc.that have precipitated the gun laws already on the books now?? There have always been gun laws.This is not a REPUBLICAN or a DEMOCRAT issue, although Obama has "FRAMED" it to be so that he can continue his class warfare & you've FALLEN for this tactic,hook,line & sinker! You are one of the 'sheeple" in our great nation! This is an AMERICAN ISSUE! I am an NRA membr , I do want stricter backgrnd checks right along with better "MENTAL HEALTH CARE". The mother of the boy who killed the 20 children in Conn. was trying to institutionalize her son but the process was not an easy one,why don't we address that.?maybe she would have been alive todayl! Today, there was another shooting in TX w/ 2 shooters,tell me how a magazine with only 7 rounds would have taken care of 2 or more shooters .so that debunks the "magazine" size and quantity issue as well. As we all felt the sorrow of the Aurora, CO movie theater episode, the theaters now have policemen on duty and I for one feel much safer. We need to give that safety to our children in the schools as well. We have armed guards that protect our govt officials, hollywood stars & others along with our money in armored cars but we wouldn't do this for our kids? We don't need executive orders or more legislation. How about enforcing the laws we ALREADY have on the books and make sure that those who break those laws are PROSECUTED!

    John....it's called crony goverment & paying off your big $$$ donors to get you re-elected! Note how VIOLENT THE MOVIE & GAMES INDUSTRY IS....WHAT hypocrites! Many "hollywood elites" made that informercial for banning guns but one of the most VIOLENT movies that I've seen all year is the recently released Jamie Fox movie "DJango/Unchained"...not to mention the potential to start RACE RIOTS ALL OVER OUR GREAT NATION AGAIN! ....it was TRUELY CLASS WARFARE! .....If you are an uninformed BLACK PERSON sitting in this movie, you might be tempted to harm the first white person you saw....EVEN THOUGH YOU WERE NEVER A SLAVE, NOR WAS ANY WHITE PERSON ALIVE TODAY A "SLAVE OWNER". Hollywood, and especially Jamie Fox, is furthering the agenda of this administration to divide Americans ......by color, race, creed & financial well being! Sadly, there are those out there who are only interested in movies, games and who won "Dancing with the Stars" or "Survivor"....they are totally unable to see what's happening to the culture of America....If you asked them about BENGAHZI, they want to know if they were running for an office! TOTALLY UNINFORMED about the WORLD and those things that affect their lives and the lives of their children and grandchildren!

    William...yep! I couldnt resist it...The news, although you think is alway wrong from FOX unless you think it's something you can use for Obama, FAILED TO TELL YOU HOW LOW the housing market was...I'm a realtor! The phony numbers of sales as stated out of the Department of Housing was recently revised....3 MILLION MORE IN SALES THAN THERE ACTUALLY WAS......they would do anything to paint an untrue but "rosey" picture...Can you accept this from someone in the industry William or do you have to read it in the History Books right after the line that Obummer was the worst president even over Jimmy Carter!

    William…take a Chill Pill or I guess the next thing you’ll be doing is finding out who I am so you can sue me like the guy who just had a heart attack at the ‘Heart Attack” restaurant that NO ONE made him go in to!….LOL!
