[SEL] test...now 33...OT

[Steve W.]

Peter, Not to be to picky but it is not the gun that is the problem. 
More gun laws are a TOTAL WASTE OF TIME. Why? BECAUSE criminals don't 
obey the law in the first place. I do have one gun law that would make a 
difference though, that one would be to repeal ALL the current laws 
restricting lawful persons from having and carrying them. If ONE person 
that was there had a firearm and used it the shooting would have 
stopped. BUT that is illegal.
