Listen I'm all for  reasonable legislative moves. But people have to be willing to deal with our reality. This issue is far beyond what a few laws can fix. Maybe in a generation or two we can  move away from heavily guarding schools, but right now that's what we need to do.[/quote]
"Reasonable legislative moves," like what?

More to the point, if you're all for reasonable legislative moves, then SUPPORT THOSE REASONABLE LEGISLATIVE MOVES. Don't say, "Well, I'm all for reasonable legislative moves, but what we really need to focus on right now is turning our schools into fortress prisons."[/quote]

I have and continue to support legislation.

Reasonable laws such as:
Banning assault weapons
Prohibiting mentally ill and those with a history of violence from owning guns
Extensive background checks and training with frequent rechecks and retraining for gun owners.
Limiting how guns can be purchased ie no gunshows, online at Walmarts etc.
Heavy fines or prison time for those who do not act on credible tips.

Not Reasonable:
We should go into every house and just take all the guns.

New  laws are great, but we need to prepare for  the people who fall through the cracks and the people who won't be impacted by new laws because they already have their assault weapons and somebody has already ignored the tips on them and they are just waiting for the special day they picked to roll up on a school. I want to do everything possible to protect my loved ones who are students and staff and schools if that means we need several armed guards, airport style security and  metal detectors for  the next decade while we deal with the other issues that contribute to the murder issue in America so be it.
