Well the government did quite the about face as well from disarming America to funding armed personnel in schools.
Yes. And it sucks. But apparently it's necessary because there are massacres every week now. Reality is what it is. We've been dealt this hand ... or at least allowed it to happen ... and since we can't disarm people, we all have to arm ourselves.
That is like say that WHEN I see a alien space craft circling my city and creatures hanging out I will believe in aliens. your right but I haven't.
Maybe you haven't but plenty of others have. Plenty of others have.
This is just a small sampling of what's going on in cities all around the US.
Now they've added ground troops to this training.
Nor do I assume when I see a guy in a pickup truck in my area driving around with a firearm on back window rack that I he is headed to a school to do a mass shooting. Its really a common site.

Freedom.
You exaggerate in almost every comment you make.
Why do you think that is necessary ?

Common here as well.
When I hear gunshots near dusk it's either target practice or they saw some feral hogs.
When I hear gunshots at night I hope they got that coyote.
It's shotgun shots that I hear, not rocket launchers taking off or submachine guns or AK's spitting off rounds.
Oh please. Don't you read the news? Multiple (as in 3+) shootings are almost a daily occurrence.
So 3 people constitute a massacre and it happens daily now.
My advice is to take your fearful self way up high in the mountains away from any humans and have no contact with them at all. Only then will you feel "safe".

I live in an exurb of Cleveland. It's half suburban, half rural, and the shooting I hear is generally from hunters in the Fall, and there is a house up the street from my development where they own a ton of land, and do a lot of shooting for target practice. At least it's not for the same reasons that we hear shooting in the inner city.

Ask jmqueen about all of the senseless violence in that goes on daily in inner cities where some of the gun laws tend to be the strictest. Why is that?

Heh heh. Is this the new NRA deflection technique? That's twice on this thread that someone has used it in response to me. Entertaining.
