How a Top Student Turned Into Mass Killer

But it is the cold dead hands of all those college students that motivate the gun-control lobby.

Boy, you can sure read that two ways.

Still, the headline is false advertising. I read the entire thing and didn't find one word about how laws disarming everyone who obeyed them allowed the student to turn into a mass killer.

And leave it to Brady spokeswuss Douglas Pennington to bleat that licenses are the answer, when the shooter had a state-required FOID.

I do have to wonder though--if "Authorized Journalists" Caryn Rousseau and Chris Stephen ever encountered a violent attacker and they only had one of these, which one would get to use it?

I've been singing the Monty Python song "Spam" to myself a lot recently, but I've substituted the word FOID for Spam. It works better because it sounds funnier, and if you think about it, it really is funnier. The emperor has no clothes, but he has a FOID card!
