For all the leaks and failures, the rallying cry seems to think the only solution is ban things and run and hide in a corner. Most by folk who have either never owned or are being quite judgemental (which is understandable) so they don't understand that most of the laws they've asked for are either already a law, using false terms or what they're asking is actually a full ban using theur logic... (edit) this is where advocates start to poo poo the stuff being said.. most ppl here want gun laws improved... just not the type the media outcry would have you think would be most effective (thats why some think their agenda is really to push for a total ban)
I do not want schools to give teachers the JOB of protecting the students. However, if a teacher already has a carry permit, then I'm open to them being able to bring it on campus as long as the holster is secure and they've passed background. I don't think it should be allowed across the board as one size fits all because that is assinine. It is legal here already but it should be up to the school to ban, etc if they don't want them on their campus like it is with local businesses...

There is no one size fits solution to this though. That's just too idealistic.

I maru like many others have no plan to ban Americans from holding weapons..what is bizare to to us is the need to hold a Auto or a semi Auto weapon..they are military weapons
