Another school shooting! [View all]

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the American people who want gun control and to the parents and families of the students and a teacher (not sure if it was one teacher) of this shooting earlier today. How on earth can a 19 year old get a hold of such a gun?

What is wrong with Republican Senators, Governors and the NRA members who keep protesting against gun control?
Are they so immune that their children will not be affected because they go to private schools? Can you imagine saying bye to your child and wishing him/her a nice day and then this senseless shooting happens. When will these republicans become humans and feel the pain that parents feel when their child gets killed at school?

On a side note, thanks to the DUers who gave me hearts.
