Common-Sense Steps

"We're trying to ensure the safety of the residents of the city and visitors to the city," she said. "We're taking what we believe are common-sense steps to do that."

Yeah--by making the commoners defenseless and not guaranteeing their protection. What could possibly be senseless about that?

This is the parasite mind set in action. These parasites do not understand what the real world is. They are employed at a job that doesn't have to make a profit to keep the doors open and the lights on.
I personally don't see any changes because all it takes is a trip to the mall to see masses of junk food feed, whale size idiots who vote.

All this city's recreation centers have a no-guns policy. People still get shot dead, inside and on the grounds. It just empowers the worst of the worst, those who are totally lost and don't care. Observe the white flag of temprary truce, make a big, fat helpless target.
I'm talking about 13- and 16-year-olds, now. The minimum age to TOUCH a handgun is 21.
When your career is making rules, rules become the most important thing, the panacea, the cure-all. Then reality slaps you in the head, like at Virginia Tech.
"We need EVEN MORE rules."
No, we need freedom.

"On Memorial Day weekend, Clinton Chad Grainger, a Snohomish man with a history of drug addiction and schizophrenia, fired a gun during a fight at the music festival, wounding three other people. Grainger, who this month pleaded guilty to two counts of third-degree assault, had a concealed-weapon permit."

Hmm. A history of drug addiction? Sounds like he's been through the courts more than once. And diagnosed as schizophrenic?

Making it illegal for someone like that to have a gun and illegal to conceal it didn't work, so let's make it illegal for him to illegally have it and illegally conceal it in that place, too.

Yeah. That should work.
