Or maybe you should ask, would Virginia Tech have happened if the guy knew every teacher and student was armed just as much as he was? Of course not, kids that go on school shootings do so for attention and they know it will be the only time in their life they will be more powerful than their peers.

If everybody owned a gun, everybody would be on a level playing field with the criminals, and the criminals would second think going rambo if they knew others were packing heat as well.

Virginia Tech, Columbine, 9/11, all could have been prevented if we didn't have such strict gun laws.

Too often I've seen failed policies (in law, and especially schools) that rely on de-clawing everybody with the false notion that you can actually control the entire Rating: 5
