Another good reason to allow concealed-carry permit holders to take their firearms to work if they happen to work for a college or school.

This is sad...

What a wadd; shooting innocent kids who probably did nothing against him.

Prepare for the gun debate.

There's a sick pattern to these types of things. This is the same week that Columbine school shootings happened, Waco Texas siege, Oklahoma City bombing, I know there's a few others, but it seems to be prevelant around the 19th of April, which happens to be my birthday. I'm gonna be watching the news like a hawk for the next few days, I pray nothing else like this happens anywhere.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the families in Virginia.

my heart goes out to all the families and friends of the victims

and before this they were trying to put in new strict gun laws

FYI, it's illegal to carry a firearm on to a school's campus. As if that really stops people.
