A knee-jerk reaction in response to the school shootings by one sick, lonely and bullied boy is unacceptable. His mother was at the center of this 'perfect storm'.
Using this event as a rallying point to have government intrude further into our lives, deny our civil rights, points directly to all the signs of a totalitarian governments first actions against the country's citizens.
Take a much harder look at the lives of 2 generations of turn-key children playing video games where the most 'kills' wins.
Where are the Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, after school sports, required physical education, required national military service. Get these young people back into the light of day, physically healthy and more socially adept.
Get them out of the 'basement' environment where the only time they are winners is when they score the most kills. That's the problem. Not my guns.
I expect support of my civil rights to gun ownership without further encroachment by an already out-of control-government.

Addendum:
The plan to sell Egypt, a Muslim controlled country hostile to the United States,
our latest technology F-16 Fighter jets and 200 Abrams tanks is treasonous.
Those technologies will immediately be shared with Russia, Iran, China and North Korea. And most probably Cuba and Venezuela.
Let’s keep our eye on the ball and concentrate on these issues of national security.
What must our ‘allies’ think of this decision? Not much.

They are bigots through and through. They cry about the death of the children in Newtown and use it as a vehicle to whittle away our 2 Amendment rights while they support the outrageous murder of the unborn children in the womb. Todate the number of these murders is approximately 55 MILLION babies. This is not to make light of the death of the 20+ children in Newtown but only to point out their disgusting bigotry and their deceitful tatics that apparently excape too many Americans. The immorality of this culture is beyond belief. It is a wonder that God does not rain down terrible chastisements upon this nation. My constant question is how long will our Creator put up with the destruction of His holy innocents before he takes action. The old testament gives plenty of examples of how he punished some of Jews for their sins against Him as they wandered in the desert for 40 years. Pray for His Mercy upon the U.S.
