They may not have as many fatal, random shootings if they also lookedd again at the mental health structure of the country, especially in these trying times. More people are stressed & desperate. Mentally ill individuals make up a large chunk of our homeless population. Things like this would help more than more gun control. Sane, responsible gun owners would NEVER consider shooting innocent people or kids. If you take away more gun rights, the honest people will fall victim to thugs, felons, and other mental people like the ones in Connecticut & Colorado. (The perpetrators, not the victims or people in general) You can have my gun when you pry it from my cold dead hand...

The people running this country make me sick. Obama is just a small spokesman. But the ignorance, greed, and shallow-minded congressmen/women, and representatives tell me that our country is run by fools, looking to pad only their own wallets. I pray for the day the government is overturned by the true power (THE PEOPLE)and a REAL hange takes place. I will not pledge allegiance, to a country run by fools, who can't/ won't pay their bills, who bicker over silly things like overseas charities and oil wars; neglecting the people themselves. Who decide to feed the enemies people, instead of their own; and who refuse to make standard saving lives over profit margins with healthcare. Why not get rid of "Insurance" & just have doctors on retainer, like lawyers? A fee paid to your doctor monthly in agreeance he takes care of you when your sick and handles check ups as needed. Just K.I.S.S. it! (Keep It Simple, Stupid!) AND CUT CONGRESS' & REPRESENTATIVES PAY! Most were wealthy when they took office. A humble salary will keep their motives honorable and their feet in touch with reality. May even brush up their budgetting skills. This shouldn't be voted on by the blow harrds in D.C. This should be voted on by THE PEOPLE of the UNITED STATES.. ***(All due respect to veterans & soldiers.. They're just following orders)***
