My friend's dad works there

And this happened the other day about 2 blocks from where I live. Scary stuff.

More Sadness

Kids on a warpath?
I don't know.. Perhaps the media blew this story up? Why would they let themselves be arrested without firing a single round at the police. ESPECIALLY since they were supposed to take out 3 kids and then get as many other people as they possibly could...

They had several guns belonging to Matthew's father, including rifles, a shotgun, several handguns, swords and 2,000 rounds of ammunition.
Sounds like they meant business to me.

Getting a gun is easy. But controlling that gun, instead if it controlling you is the hard part . A gun should be your last resort. After a gang killing a few years ago, I applied for and recieved my firearms permit. Beleive me, there's not only alot of responsibility that goes with this permit, but the additude one must acquire. In five years, I've only had to unholster my weapon once, for an obvious threat that displaying the weapon quickly shutdown the senerio. Hoping I never have to actually use it, but with all the crazies out there, I feel a little more secure, esspecially when out with my wife and family. I urge every one of you, if qualified to get a permit . The more law abiding folks out there with a firearm, the safer our world will be.
