Mac you need to read the federalists papers so that you can understand the intent of the second amendment. Also the security of a free state, just imagine if you will we are invaded by a foreign military. Would you want to have a kitchen knife to protect your homeland, or a single shot rifle, or a smile. Would it not be better to have a high capacity magazine in a modern rifle. You can’t ever rule this out we have made a lot of enemies over the years. Obama, and Bushes policies are almost identical and this in itself creates enemies. Wake up my friend, support you’re constitution before its too late.

John if it where not for the normal citizenry having guns in 1776 you would not be a free man today. A gun in the hands of a good law abiding citizen is a good thing. Just look at cities like Chicago where law abiding citizens can’t have on and look at how many people die there due to thugs. Stop drinking the communist koolaid and go get you a gun to defend yourself with. I’ve never been the victim of a deadly home invasion, and pray I never do. If I ever am a victim I stand ready to protect my family. Shouldn’t you? You won’t have time to call the police and wait for their arrival if you are ever in this situation. Shouldn’t you have the right to protect yourself and you’re family? Don’t you love them? If one of the educators would have been armed in New Town we not have seen all this calamity. Wouldn’t it been better to here how a teacher killed this phsyco before he killed all those kids?

The lunatic in New Town used two pistols to kill those kids and then shot and killed himself. Investigators found the AR 15 in the trunk of his car. Ask yourself how could have killed himself and then place an AR 15 in the trunk of his car. Then ask yourself who could have stoped him if he used a knife, or club, if no one had a gun to stop him. Is you’re solution to outlaw all knives, forks, guns, and baseball bats too. wake up

In China where only communist regime has the monopoly on force, a mad man attacked a school and killed 17 with a knife. Common sense would tell you that if a grown man wanted to kill 6 year olds he would not need a gun. The bottom line is you will always have these sick and twisted types in every society. To pretend like you could do away with crime by doing away with guns is stupid at best. Just look no further than Detroit, Chicago, and new york city where guns are illegal, and the answer will answer you’re own question. Just think of the outcome if the principal would have had a gun in Con. You should also getva gun to protect you and you’re family. You never know when you will become a victim of violent home invasion. Criminals always want the path of least resistance no gun no fight.

Michael you need not to look no where but at you’re self for short sightedness. Even though breaking the law is illegal you will always have people breaking the law. In other words you will always have criminals the best way to deter them is with a gun. Lets say you’re a victim of a home invasion by a group of thugs armed with baseball bats. Would you prefer to have a bat you’re self, or wait 10-15 minutes on the ploice or would you prefer to have a gun to defend yourself. Answer honestly you never know when you will find yourself in this situation. I pray it never happens to you. Also you can take guns away from law abiding citizens but the criminal will always have one. The main stream media never covers stories where guns have saved lives. WAKE UP MICHAEL stop drinking the communist propaganda .

I agree with you Mr. Simmons, educators should be armed. Our tax dollars pay to have AR 15′s in Israeli schools its a shame that we can’t take the same aproach here. Secondly the 2nd amendment is not up for debate Manchin is bound by law to uphold it and that is what he needs to do. Common sense would tell you that someone could come into a ” GUN FREE ZONE” with a baseball bat and kill just as many kids. I call for the removal of all politicians attacking our freedoms.

@Mac if you do not like the 2nd Amendment you are free to move elsewhere. If the banning of firearms is so important to you may I suggest moving to a country whom already has this ban. There are 2 countries that have this ban that speak English and should make your transition easier. Have a Nice Day.

Gun FreeZones don’t work we should already have conceald carry in schools. Police and armed guards in all schools is to expensive. Many of our school personal are already proficent with guns and have conceald carry permits. Give them the OK and start training others that want too. Our childern are sitting ducks while we debate and pass useless laws that don’t do anything but punish law abiding people. Mass killers have mental problems and the only way you will stop most is with a gun.

The citizens of this country have no business owning assult weapons. They should not be sold. They should be taken away. Anyone found in posession of one should be thrown in jail. There, I said it. Let the bashing begin.

Hey Mac, another four people killed in Ohio this past weekend as result of a drunk driver. Driving the wrong way on the interstate. By your theory, all highways, cars, and booze should be outlawed.
