I think it'll be a month before there's another shooting...

....on a large scale, like the one in Newtown.

It was just less than a week after the Clackamas shooting and now there's no doubt someone else out there with access to a gun or who can get one with such ease that it'll happen again.
After seeing the kind of attention that Newtown got, it'll no doubt happen again.

I hope I'm wrong, but that's just my own guess/hunch.

What is so wrong with 100% background checks on EVERY SINGLE gun purchase?
It's not like the gun industry would lose millions of dollars, or would they?

Do they really want lax laws to the point that every single person is armed to the teeth? WTF???

While the NRA Was on TV Talking About the Need for More Guns Some Guy Was Walking Up and Down a Road in Pennsylvania Shooting People

The National Rifle Association today held its first press conference since last week's deadly shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary, and the takeaway was clear: We need more guns.

"The only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun," said NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre.

He went on to call for an armed police officer to be stationed in "every single school" across America to prevent further mass shootings, as critics tried to point out that armed law enforcement officials might not be the panacea the NRA thinks it is.

But before they could finish their sentence, the counterargument made itself as news broke of a mass shooting event in Pennsylvania with multiple casualties, including state troopers.

According to local reports out of Blair County, at least four people were killed and five more were injured in a shooting spree near Altoona. The gunman is said to be among the dead, and at least two state troopers were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

WPXI's Courtney Brennan says she was told by emergency officials that the shooting suspect "was 'mobile' at one point and went up and down a rural road and shot victims."
