fact is gopher, if someone would have had a gun, the virginia tech body count could have been way lower. it takes an alligence of police and citizens to defend us from crime. police are reactionary, they only come once the crapt goes down. if a person is shown he or she is mentally, and physically able to carry a concealed weapon, they should be able to. i don't care how many laws you make to keep criminals from having guns, they will get them. they don't excately play by the rules.
oh, yes mr. government, i'm a bad boy, here, take my guns.
yeah right, it is up to all of us to fight crime, not just rely on the police.
