GUEST,Marty D Santee School Shots (44) RE: Santee School Shots 05 Mar 01


I usually check here for the music stuff, but this is just so sad, and becoming sooo predictable. Kids are once again killed by kids, and STILL, the moral conservatives argue for legal handguns? What's even more predictable will be the call for more and more prayers tomorrow and the inevitable playing of Amazing Grace. It used to signify something to me, but not since it's become the standard 'after the massacre' song.

These kids knew something was up, and had they imformed the authorities, we'd be bombarded with stories of lawsuits because some kids who were 'different', were being labeled as 'dangerous'. The kids new better, so they said nothing, and this is the result.

Why, why, why, is it so difficult for some to understand that handguns ARE NOT for hunting animals, they are for killing people. If someone can prove to the authorities that they NEED a handgun for self protection, then perhaps exceptions can be legally made, but so often these weapons are simply 'there for the taking'. I'm so sick of all the praying and hymn singing after horrors like these. If only ONE of those clergy had the guts to say 'no more guns'.
