The tragic that killws 20 children and six adults took place in a gun free zone set up by Connecticut lawmakers for safety reasons. Ffor whom? It is not the victim the of course. Also notice that when the shooting starts at the (safe) gun free zones, the lawmakers are usually somewhere else, safe, I might add.

Gun control has not saved one life. This is proven by gun deaths in New York City and Chicago.

In the classrooms they have an M16 rifle and ammunition stored in an easy access safe(as reported by www. gunowners.org) ,so if shooter comes to school their first shot is their last. The results are no school shootings.

America needs to adopt this policy, because police cannot be everywhere.
