BollD,

The founding fathers were interseted in a FREE PRESS- They had no idea about the internet where a lie could sprerad around the world in a few minutes.

I guess there should not be any right to free speech, unless it is on public corners, or done on a hand-powered press.

Yes, we could make the whole world a lot safer- all we need to do is have an absolute dictatorship and remove anything that might be dangerous. I do not wish such a situation.

And YOU were the one who said:"I see the pleas to limit this thread to 'sympathy' etc., but obviously that's not going to happen. I doubt any of the victim's families are going to be reading this.)" and made this thread into a gun/anti-gun debate. Most of those who were discussing it had agreed it was not the time, nor the thread.
