[quote:Project_Deimos:MV8yMDgzMDI2XzM1MDc3OTQyXzkwRUFGMUNC] [quote:FatalW1shes:MV8yMDgzMDI2XzM1MDc2MTM3XzE5NkVBNTVF] It took police 10 minutes to get to Sandy Hook. 10 long minutes. 1 Armed person inside the school could have been at the classroom in 2 minutes unless he happened to be patrolling that hallway that instant. Criminals don't obey laws. They will steal weapons and commit crimes regardless of the laws. You can ban every gun on the planet and it won't stop a criminal hell bent on this type of crime. You have to take the son of a bitch out once he begins to act. Taking away my guns isn't going to stop a criminal. It's just going to unarm me and make me wait 10 minutes for a cop that may or may not come. I'm not waiting nor am I going to become a victim. [/quote] Exactly. Furthermore, if guns go away guess what you're going to get? BOMBS. That's right - BOMBS will be the new normal. It will be the only way for some wacko to kill en-masse with a guaranteed success rate. See how slippery this slope is? [/quote]

To the families and friends of all of the victims, it is about more than the politics of a historical document; it’s about guaranteeing that this never happens to anyone else’s children.
Barack Obama is in his second and final term. He is not facing re-election. He is not facing the prospect of being voted back in or out. Politically, he has nothing whatsoever to lose by doing what must be done.
