because this is a very very very strong pro-gun community, it may well be that we see the community and even victims' families speak out AGAINST any gun control measures in response. We've seen that before, so be prepared. It will be very hard to take, but...


I certainly will say that if, after this horror, their faith brings them comfort, then I'm all for it. Anything that brings them some peace...

He said something like "we don't know why it happens, it happens" or something to that effect. Highly paraphrased but it stood out to me. Very disjointed.

This may or may not bring the gun show loophole to the discussion table.

If it could also keep the birthrate of wingers down, I'm all for it too.

And after Sandy Hook, I'm not sure that's going to change any time soon.
