Rath,
I haven't even bothered to listen to this event as I knew it did not have enough emotional appeal to properly stroke the public in the manner as did the other school shooting.
However ...my instincts and prejudices tell me to look for another shooting of children or worse just before the upcoming legislation is attempted to be passed to help boost the necessary votes.
I have a difficult time believing this government is really concerned about children for the reasons stated.. albeit in sarcasm...by Capricorn.
I was also thinking the other night when in the grocery store and went to the fridge section for the purchase of a gallon of milk. I was a bit astonished that milk here was more than $5.30 per gallon. It had been some time since I had made the purchase of milk.
Now if government was really concerned about children they would be actively taking steps on and heating up the resources to lower the price of milk....for all children. But they are not doing this.
Remember...Rath...children are the automtaic default setting for every and anything government and leadership want to do. They can leverage our children for any and everything....against our will and over our objections...even take from us our private property.
I am also well aware of how many children were killed elsewhere in America on that infamous day..yet totally avoided in the news.

You are going to have difficulty convincing me of how much gun violence is taking place in America. Because I also know how violent are other nations and their people.
I also know about this kind of violence in the last 100 years....of governments against their own people.. of which you also fail to bring up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DemocideFor those of you who read this with any thought outside of the standard default settings and who desire a view into what the World standards are to become for all nations under world or international control...I recommend this book..about England and what is happening in their nation and among their people on the government dole/control.
Lots of runaway violence in this book.
Life at the Bottom by Theodore Dalrymple
http://www.amazon.com/Life-Bottom-World ... 1566635055When I read this book it became immediately clear why the British Government would not allow someone like Michael Savage to visit England. They would not want him telling the rest of the world on his program what he found in such British Social projects. Someone with Michal Savage's Education and background would be able to rapidly dissect this and see what the British government wanted hidden from world view.
This is also why certain people were never allowed in the olde Soviet Union to see what conditions were like there.
In addition to that reason..they were afraid of competing thoughts and ideas. So too with England today. Da Tovarich!!??
More and more in England today..they are moving into the thought police..so too it is coming here in America with international standards..or more appropriately ..non standards. But they are asking tolerance from everyone but government. Astonishing!!
And we want to follow those models by default?? No thanks.
Furthermore you do not delineate how much of it is in defense of property and lives or other. This is significant as neither do anti gun people here in America and around the world. Nor do they describe how much violence is prevented by the presence of a gun. This figure is starkly absent from any such news story...except for only certain news and information sites.
They also do not tell you ..how violent are the cities of most nations..where the "civilized people" are supposed to be living and where are the greatest gun restriction on people.
Washington DC, Chicago, Detroit and all these places which are economically failing are also the cities and states with the greatest gun restrictions on them and have the greatest violence taking place within them.
I can see why leadership would be so concerned with how Southerners think...considering the mess they have made of their own states.
http://southernnationalist.com/blog/201 ... nt-page-1/The other state which has constantly and steadly making a mess out of themselves is Kalifornia. They too have highly restrictive gun laws and getting worse like New York. They are attempting to find themselves as the standard for which the rest of the nation must automatically follow..or default over to..like this computer..it must of necessity automtaically follow suit.
The rest of the states do not want to follow Kaliforrna and New York....da Tovarich!!??
We do not see them as good role models by which to follow. We see them as states for which anyone with potentail ...is leaving.
And we do find alot more of these states license plates showing up down here looking for jobs after making a mess of things up there.
Kalifornia and New York do not automatically represent the rest of the states by default. No matter what or how the MSM attempt to air brush these states.
Thanks to all for their posts,
