Who is Ms Cleo?

As for the numbers, a simple look at the number of annual school shooting prior to the Gun Free Zone vs. the number of annual school shootings after the Gun Free Zone went into effect shouldn't be too difficult for you to handle.

I'm not blaming legislation, I'm blaming the idiots who pass legislation that is unnecessary.

I would assume NRA is more interested in money and political power. The arms and ammunition is simply good business for buddies.

I'm sure there are different levels of crazy. She probably did the best she could.

What would you say to big sis buying 1.6 billion rounds of Hollow Points? You know those aren't allowed under the geneva convention. She going to use them for target practice? Or ?

Like idiots who pass legislations against murder, rape... and yet can't stop them from happening. Now, do these cases increase, or decrease after the legislations went into effect? For that matter, how do y'all manage to figure out that Adam Lanza showed up to shoot because gun free zone was law? And that, there would have been fewer shootings if the law didn't exist.

Sorry, I don't tune into right wing loud mouths and talking points. But, if you were asking me to suggest that America as a whole is crazy... you bet it is. It is why we also reap what we sow.

Maybe you should educate yourself a little more about the subject then.

1.6 Billion Rounds Of Ammo For Homeland Security? It's Time For A National Conversation - Forbes

The US gov. has and is still buying more handgun ammo (the evil hollow point flavor that all you liberals love to hate) than it could ever possibly use and claims that it's going to be used to train TSA agents.

You're trying to compare legislation that rightfully makes it illegal to inflict harm on other with legislation that prohibits what items you can carry in a public place? Don't hurt yourself stretching like that.

Plain and simple: There is a higher annual average of school shootings now, after the Gun Free Zone law went into effect, than before the GFZ went into effect. School shootings have more than doubled since the GFZ was passed.

Actually, it was the Hague Convention of 1899. They also banned bombing from hot air balloons and any future aircraft at the same gathering.

I thought you said he had an arsenal? that isnt an arsenal, that just a start. times that by about 30 for the firearms, and times what he had in ammo by about 1000 and that is what I have at home. I know people that have 200 times that amount of supplies and gear. adam lanza was not even started if you think that he has an arsenal.


mind you, I dont have all the swords, but I do have lots more than what he did in firearms and ammo.
