    You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians disseminating this information.
    Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
    Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
    The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
    With guns, we are "citizens". Without them, we are "subjects".
    During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew most Americans were ARMED!
    If you value your freedom, please spread this antigun-control message to all of your friends.

    • So true. When we pulled out of Cambodia those of us on the ground could see where Pol Pot was headed but nobody listened or cared. The "important" thing was to end the Vietnam war. Which didn't happen for another 2 years but you will never hear a politician admit it. The last two names on The Wall are Charles McMahon and Darwin Judge, who died April 29 1975 when their chopper was shot down during the evacuation of Saigon.

    • I was watching judge Napolatino on Fox & Friends, he was discussing the schools in Israel. As you know everyone is required to serve in the IDF. They have armed "vets" in the classrooms, unidentified.

      • By comparison to Israel we don't even have a "problem" here. These incidents are freakishly rare and the source is an emotionally disturbed student - not a foreign agent. All the King's horses and all the King's agents of ambiguous gender will never eliminate tragic events completely. You got it perfectly right when you pointed out that so many people had so much advanced warning that this kid was a disaster looking for a place to happen and NONE of them zipped up their pants and did anything. They all kicked the can down the road... until it blew up.

  • And my solution for school shootings is STOP MAKING OUR KIDS SITTING DUCKS with these gun free zones crap. I want my kids school full of legally carrying adults and a sign that says so.

  • Ever since Lindsey Vonn opened her mouth against Trump she’s not done well. Athletes should concentrate on competing and shut up about politics.

      • All I’m saying is that she thought she was being edgy with getting all political and getting a zing in and she’s had nothing but crap. She was too concerned with the wrong things and thought her competition was in the bag.

        • And because of the three or four Olympic athletes mouthing off about politics and announcing preemptively that they hate the president, ratings have tanked so bad NBC is facing bankruptcy. Every time these athletes get upset about being called stupid, they prove the point.

          • I have watch some of the reruns on the 'puter, I like to see people who are good at what they do just doing it. But watching on the 'puter after the fact means I don't have to watch all the commercials and listen to the asinine commentators flap their gums.

          • Our entire team sucked this year because ppl were more concerned with diversity and politics than talent and competition.

          • The constant examples of bad sportsmanship don't help. Now it's a Canadian female hockey player who ripped off her silver medal as soon as they hung it around her neck. I guess she was pissed about not winning gold, I don't know.

  • Read elsewhere of making it TDY for active military. Pull our guys out of the countries the US stomped in WW2 and use them at home. Rotate them out pretty frequently and don't use Marines; we can't subject our young ladies to the charm of a Marine in uniform.;)

    • You left out the part that says we Americans will defend ourselves at all costs. And we will do it with a gun in hand if need be.

  • Simple enough, in theory. Treat schools like any other public building and station armed security. Ask these effin leftards why you never hear of mass shootings at police stations, NRA meetings, or gun ranges. It's really pretty simple.
