Terrorists and those wishing to create mass casualties generally target areas of least resistance. I agree with the sheriff, people should have the right to defend themselves using whatever means are at their disposal. Obviously children in schools cannot carry weapons, but training and allowing teachers to carry is a probable solution to these cowards who target elementary schools.

Jesuit and bleeding heart Governor said no to that specifically teachers and principals cannot carry weapons on campus.

Cynthia Croft - since that shooting spree from that deranged guy at the resort 20 years ago that caused your government to do the buyback and ban all assault weapons do you have an increase in stabbings and do the criminal still have submachine guns when they're caught just before or just after they rob a bank or Banks?

Cynthia Croft - my particular comparison is Canada Alberta specifically. There are still shootings here there are knife attacks and it seems that they when they do major busts of gangs they always seem to have submachine guns and plenty of weaponry. I know some of the weapons are stolen from the United States and brought up here since the border is very Horace and the adjacent State like Montana I think has a very liberal laws on concealed carry and owning military style Sporter semi automatic M16 and for looking rifles which people call assault weapons which I think is a really dumb term. How is being in a major city in Australia very different than being in a major city like mine like Edmonton Alberta with 1 million people and multi-ethnic. We have indigenous Ukrainian Eastern European people from all kinds of Muslim countries and Latinos from all kinds of Central and South American countries that had Civil Wars Canada took them in. We have somalis we have lots of Filipinos who came here because of the shortage of people that take job so the Filipinos were allowed to emigrate. We have tons of Vietnamese lotion cambodians as well. To me, this does not seem that much different than when I used to live in Los Angeles or orange counties of Southern California accept that you are limited to I think a five-shot capacity on semi-automatic rifles and shotguns. You have to go through a lot of background checks and pay a license and training to have a firearm like a revolver or semi-automatic pistol. We do have shootings we do have drive-by shootings and I don't know if they are caused from people having those rifles that are 5 shots or less. The criminals do seem to have guns like I described earlier that would probably stolen from the USA.

IMO-I am my own 911, I don't care how quickly they respond, they are not faster than a speeding bullet! I'd rather be judged by 12 then carried out by 6.

When seconds count, help is minutes away. I'm not trying to explain to my family why one of my children or my wife is dead because some idiot went off the deep end.
