Columbine Madness

Yesterday was the tenth anniversary of the massacre at Columbine High School where two students killed 12 students and one teacher. It got somewhat tiresome to hear about it every ten seconds, no matter where you turned, television, radio, or even the Internet. I feel sorry for the victims and their families, but they didn’t need to talk about it every ten seconds. I accurately predicted that the “anti-gun zealots” would use Columbine (again) as an excuse to demand more and more restrictive “anti-gun laws,” even though they and we know such laws DO NOTHING to stop such actions. How many CURRENT gun laws did Dillon and Kliebold break in this massacre? How many anti-gun laws did other shooters in other places break in their shootings? Only the presence of an armed citizen who isn’t afraid to shoot the shooter, and which the shooter doesn’t expect to be there can be a deterrent, by shooting the shooter before he/she can shoot any more people (as happened at the Colorado Springs church shooting). But the “anti-gun freaks” won’t hear of it, even though they KNOW more restrictive “gun control laws” will NOT do it, but will only make the problem worse. We need to stop listening to these insane people. (Just common sense)
