I got this in my E-mail this morning. I don't think I need to asay anything else; it's pretty self-explanitory and I personally subscribe to every contention made in the piece. The only thing I would add is; note every location and the fact that EVERY. SINGLE. one. of the locations where these tragedies occurred was a "gun free" zone. AND every one of the perpretrators of the actions violated a number of gun control laws already on the books. Nuff' said.
