Re:guns and shootings : In a nutshell, seems to me...

Conservative response: " Let's all carry guns, to protect ourselves!"
Liberals: " let's make it harder for people to get guns"

are afraid to walk out the front door without a gun or two strapped to their bodies. They don't care about the impact on society as long as they can keep/buy a load of guns to fondle when the cold winds blow.

Hopefully, we'll bite the bullet like Australia did in 1996.
