After the senseless events of the 2012 massacre of 20 children and six adults at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, you would think that politicians would put every other piece of legislation on the back burner and commit, no, devote themselves to passing legislation that would ensure that no parent or loved one should ever have to go through something so heinous and soul destroying again.
And yet here we are…..
The Consitution is something all Americans hold dearly as we built our democracy, and the right to vote is something worth cherishing. However, our priorities were set in constitutional stone when The Second Amendment was put in place to protect our right to keep and bear arms. And while every gun owner in America is not going to walk into an Elementary School and open fire on innocent children and their teachers, the fact that this is happening, again and again, means that the politicians put into power by those same gun owners have a duty to do something about it.

Your article is possibly the most biased one I have read in ten years! So you want gun control? Yup, we get it. Now, WHY? Think about it with a modicum of logic and rationality and you will see that gun control does not work. Think about why schools are targets. Perhaps because they were painted with a bullseye when they were made SAFE ZONES? No guns allowed here=open season on schools! We protect politicians, banks, jewelry stores, courthouses, etc. with armed guards. Why do we not protect our children? T H I N K logically and you will be able to figure it out.
The continued existence of evil people is why we should arm law-abiding citizens, because only a bullet from them will stop the evil person. Police cannot be everywhere. And as we saw in Uvalde, sometimes even the police being there does not work out. Now, imagine a well-trained principal or security guard with a weapon who was on site. It would have turned out so differently. Also, think about WHY you don’t hear about law-abiding citizens stopping armed evil people in the news. It happens almost every day, yet never in the media. Again, THINK.
