About the thing in China, I read that ~20 were wounded but none were killed.
Deep, I really think you should take that photo down. There is no need to show two children terrified and devastated like that. I know I'm not a mod, but really...
really ?? it's on the front page of the Drudge Report, and most other (even ) responsible news sites.
I would not put up a picture of dead kids,
it's a sad day when we have to seriously think about having armed police at elementary schools.
did you see my location?Even I'm bothered by what those sites did. Why sink to their level?
.
nothing
with each 'new' incident the arguments remain the same.
1. the gun was not the problem, the law breaker was
2. in Texas or (insert state here) people have the right to carry everywhere, and they will give examples of when a law abiding person used his gun to stop a bad person.
3. we have enough laws on books, we don't need new laws, we just need better enforcement
4. look what just happened in China 22 kids, not 18 were killied where guns are banned by a knife, people that want to kill will find a means to do so.
5. because bad people do bads things, we should not lose our Constitutional rights, why should bad people control what rights good people have
( I could probably write 10 more)
. did you see my location?
you may not want to go out
they are on t v and will be in every newspaper and magazines for the fore seeable future
Horrifying. Perverse. Right before the holidays, can't begin to imagine what those poor families are feeling right now.
Usual parroting of "now is not the time to talk about gun control". You're right, that day came and passed a long time ago. Seems like nobody in America, Obama very much included, has any kind of principled stand here. Sad.
Stumbled onto this on Facebook, one of the most disgusting things I've seen in my life.

I do not know how to deal with this knowledge other than to continue drinking. We need to change our lives, not our laws.
I don't the latest Flash so I didn't see the video, but I saw the comments and I am disgusted beyond belief that someone would do that. How the hell does someone post a video of a mother beating her young child and think its OK to do so? Even worse, if you look at the very first set of comments, some people think its funny.
Yes, I can imagine their shock at seeing a black man during a football game.
In response to a recent increase in crime, Paragould Mayor Mike Gaskill and Police Chief Todd Stovall offered residents at a town hall meeting Thursday night at West View Baptist Church what could be considered an extreme solution — armed officers patrolling the streets on foot.
Stovall told the group of almost 40 residents that beginning in 2013, the department would deploy a new street crimes unit to high crime areas on foot to take back the streets.
"[Police are] going to be in SWAT gear and have AR-15s around their neck," Stovall said. "If you're out walking, we're going to stop you, ask why you're out walking, check for your ID."
Stovall said while some people may be offended by the actions of his department, they should not be.
"We're going to do it to everybody," he said. "Criminals don't like being talked to."

For the record, I consider all guns "assault weapons".
Nothing makes sense anymore.
