RE: Florida Shootings: Rest in Peace Aaron Feis, Life is Sometimes Unfair to Good People.
This was without a doubt a very tragic event that could potentially have been prevented. A little awareness goes a long way. It was not the guns that perpetrated these heinous events but heinous individuals. In most of those cases, there were blatant warning signs prior to the mass murders. Warning signs that were not acted upon and ignored.
It is too easy to lash out at a weapon for the act of an individual, but that is what we are seeing here. It has been proven countless times around the world, that stricter enforcement does not make us safer, it is, in fact, the opposite. The mere fact that faculty is not allowed to be armed on schools grounds actually makes our students less safe and not safer. Gun control laws that prohibit the protection of our children.
The Boston Marathon mass killing is an example of the kind of heinous murder that can be perpetrated without a firearm. If a mentally unstable person wants to do something horrible - they will find a way to do it.
This is a very very sad day. Too many lives taken from us too soon.
Thanks for your opinion, though I may slightly disagree with some of your points, but each one to his own opinion. Gun law would reduced the level at which everyone (both children and adult) are having easy access to these weapons. I know it is not the weapon but the individual who is committing the crime, however I still think the individual who commits the crime uses weapon, and without weapon it couldn't had been worst like we have just seen. Gun laws when enforced would limit the easy access to weapons. To me that is one of the ways to start preventing such issues like this in the future. I'm not saying it isn't possible for people to do bad without such weapon as AR-15 rifle, but we must understand that all this kind of weapons gives the killers an easy access to catch up with many souls at a short time.
