    On campus shootings are quickly becoming the dividing issue for anti-gun vs. pro-2d Amendment groups and individuals.

    The Anti-Gunners view it as a perfect example of why guns do not belong on campus and why they want stronger gun control legislation.

    The Pro-2d Amendment people point to the fact that guns are not the problem, homicidal behavior is the real problem. The gun was just the instrument used, but it could have easily been a knife, axe, machete, or club.

    So let's keep things in context and make sure the facts are not distorted anymore by the bias media news and point out the issue for what it is.

    I'm not sure I understand you. Even though it was an after hours shooting, perhaps if the victims had been able to defend themselves, they would be still breathing right now. The University gun free zone applies to after hours employees as well as students, now its obvious that either are fair game in the eyes of a criminal.

    But remember if we take all the law abiding citizens guns away they will comply and the criminals will disappear overnight and no shootings will ever occur again.

    then all our lives will be just like a fucking prius commercial

    I was being slightly sarcastic, but it didn't work well. I'm at work and not suppose to be on the board, so I type fast and sometimes get lost in the thought...

    Agree, my right to defend myself is my absolute right. Just need the Nine Supremes to ratify that right in June.

    Wasn't that the plan with LA?


    And look at what a shithole it is now.
