Happiness is a warm gun

We sometimes forget that the Founding Fathers were humans, too. They didn't spend their whole lives just making historic pronouncements for posterity, or figuring out new ways to apply the philosophical principles of the Age of Reason to government.

They probably headed on down to the Continental Army Veterans hall and tossed back a few now and then, especially when they felt the need to get away from the Founding Mothers for a few hours.

But, to my point: it's all well and good to punish kids for bringing firearms into the schools, but we all know that they'd never be able to get hold of them in the first place if parents didn't make them accessible, either through negligence or oversight. After all, kids can't buy them. It's no infringement on the right to bear arms to punish parents when their children, due to their own lack of care, endanger others--or worse.

You're right again!

The kids bringing the guns to school are not our biggest problem. It's the parents and family members who own the guns. We have given license to irresponsible wackos to buy & keep guns. Now we are all at risk.

Wake up Tallahassee & give us the gun control we need to stay alive.
