[QUOTE="collegeballfan, post: 401188, member: 391"] So he is Hispanic. He is also white like me and I am of English stock. The point remains that the huge majority of school shooters are white males. Why? Good point on how do we decide who is not entitled to buy a weapon. Who decides one is mentally ill and who runs the database of mentally ill people not entitled to buy weapons? As a society we have decided that the right to possess and carry is more important than the right to live. We decided in 1787 than anyone who wanted a weapon could have one if he could afford the purchase. I do not see that changing. One thought is we should codify into law the deciding point in Justice Scalia's majority decision in the Heller case. "[I]Held: [/I] 1. The Second Amendment protects an individual right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia, and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home." Maybe we need to pray for those kids who are alive today but who will be dead in days, weeks or months because they will be shot and killed at school. [/QUOTE]
