I'm prepared to have a level playing field against some weirdo that comes into my home to do me harm and all I have is a frying pan to protect myself.? Oh no. <br />Barbra Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263982645593300365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-177908533760451282012-12-19T07:04:19.216-08:002012-12-19T07:04:19.216-08:00Thanks for the thoughts, Barbra!

Sad to live in fear.Jerry Carlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024087888949143035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-25652069784863441842012-12-18T15:03:02.450-08:002012-12-18T15:03:02.450-08:00I think you know me pretty well JErry.

Brings back memories to me of what it feels like losing a child. <br /> That said though, my dad taught me to shoot and respect guns from a very early age, I do and am glad of it. I would not feel at all comfortable in my home alone, with the defense of a gun. <br /> Women have no chance physically against a man.. Happens every day, damn it ! <br /> It's a shame that I feel I need that for protection, but to repeat myself , when was the last time a man walked into a police station and killed 27 people..? Even a nut knows better than that. <br />Barbra Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263982645593300365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-70258900473067948632012-12-17T13:26:51.237-08:002012-12-17T13:26:51.237-08:00Yes, good point, Dionne, news reports can easily g...Yes, good point, Dionne, news reports can easily get discombobulated! Another reason that the NEWS is not a particularly good source of information! Just happened? Like lightening? Nothing we can do? Wear bullet proof vests? Arm the teachers? I was once a teacher, that could be dangerous! Six bullets? enough?Jerry Carlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10024087888949143035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2920411020784409759.post-89430019620819446302012-12-17T12:34:56.478-08:002012-12-17T12:34:56.478-08:00I saw a news conference today with friends of the ...I saw a news conference today with friends of the mother who stated the reports that have come out about her were not true. That her son was born with aspergers syndrome and she did everything she could to help him to live a normal life. They said she did own guns and did take her kids to a shooting range but she wasn't planning for the end of the world. The way they talked about her was that she was just a mother who loved a child born with a disability and did everything she could to help him live a normal life. <br /><br />If this is true I think it's terrible that the media has made her into a monster that created a monster. Lots of everyday people own guns and take their kids out to shoot. It doesn't turn the kids into killers. This woman probably never suspected that her child could one day do what he did.Dionnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14855034044431831155noreply@blogger.com
