Ye Gods, I'm tired of this. I'm tired of School Shootings, I'm tired of School Bullying, I'm tired of the US gun laws being blamed for School Deaths, I'm tired of people blaming school deaths on the US gun laws.....

PEOPLE, WAKE UP!!!! Bullies are bullies and weirdos are weirdos. Period. Bullies will bully, and weirdos will kill.

Weirdos that want to kill will find a way to do it, regardless of Gun Laws.......People that are "picked on" will eventually find a way to fight back, whether it's guns, knives, subway rails, or dropping people out of windows. Hells Bells, you could take someones head off with a cafeteria tray if you wanted to.......

We, as a family, got into the definition of "Weapons" when Luke was forbidden to carry "Weapons". You want to ban pencils? A pencil to the juglar vein is quite deadly.....You want to ban wooden rulers? A wooden ruler shoved up under the sternum is quite deadly. A hand chop to the throat is deadly....you want to cut off everybody's hands?

I will grant that guns are a Weapon of Mass Destruction...you can kill your opponent without coming into personal danger yourself, but banning guns is not the answer to this problem.

ANGER MANAGEMENT IS!!! Banning guns is not the answer to bullies and anger.......TEACHING and CONSEQUENCES are! Consequences have always been the answer, but nobody wants to enforce them. This starts at home......if you do A, then B WILL follow......

The more people there are crammed into a place, the more anger there will be.........and guns are simply a method of expressing the anger. See Malthus and his rats. The higher the population density becomes the higher the Anger Crime Rate.

Cripes, I live in a small town of 5,000 and daily I get angry with the traffic..........If I lived in a Metropolis I might just shoot somebody, or push them off the road.

My (our) daughter is 16, and she comes home from school every day angry........about something. She won't take a gun to school though, because we have taught her Anger Management.......and because her brother went to jail for 8 months for lack of Anger Management......Consequenses, people, consequenses.........

If they pay heavily for the minor shit, they may not do the major shit. And Family does matter.

(sorry, off my SoapBox now......)
