Guns are NOT the problem! The breakdown of the family, of society, the lack of people knowing how to deal with seriously troubled people and now the growing threats from terrorism have created powder kegs that have turned into horrific situations.... That yes, some involved guns, but disturbed people will find ways to cause havoc and kill and reign terror whether or not they have access to guns!!

Anyone recall 9-11? Oklahoma City? How many bombings in Europe? How many cars/trucks/vans ramming into terrified crowds?

It seems there are some fundamentals of human decency and respect for all humanity that is lacking In an ever growing group of people...

Maybe that's the root of the problem?? Just a thought... but whatever the true problem is, it isn't guns... There are ample statistics that show that the cities that have the strongest gun laws also have the highest rates of gun crimes and gun related deaths. Criminals will ALWAYS find ways to get guns. Why disarm law abiding citizens???

People who are determined to do harm to others will find a way! Period. Unfortunately humans are way too creative when it comes to the ways they can maul, maim and murder.

Maybe it's possible that people can practice kindness and understanding... Reach across social and ethnic boarders and get to know one another... Maybe that can do something to change the root problem.... Instead of blaming inanimate objects again.... Just a thought...
