<DIV>Paul, it’s second guessing, but I, too, have wondered why she didn’t keep
them in a gun safe. Surely not all were bought for self
protection. She had talked with others about enjoying the shooting

also like to point out that all the mental health evaluations in the world

his guns to begin with.<BR><BR>Once the hysteria dies down, thinking up ways
that we can help ensure that gun owners are more responsible with their guns at
home when they are not being used would be a good idea. If this guy's
mother had kept her guns in a gun safe, he would have had a harder time getting
to them. They would have been safe from any children that might have been
in the house as well, and probably would have made them less accident-prone as
well. The downside is that they are not immediately available if you hear
a prowler in the house.<BR><BR>Paul<BR>

style="COLOR: black">“Knee-jerk reaction or fear-driven acts.” Those are
interesting but patronizing ways to characterize the responses to these
killings, and of the same mindset, I think, as “guns don’t kill
people.” We need to be considering all our options and we should
have been doing that for a very long time. Those of us who live
here, own guns, and use them for hunting and self-protection need to be
willing to look at the cultural issues that are bigger than our own
mindsets. Might it not be that we need to consider restating the Second
Amendment in such a way as to prohibit private ownership of certain types of
armament? We already do some of that within the scope of the amendment;
why not look further? Why not consider the way we publicize the
events...the murderer, who may have never had much in the way of self
gratification, can be sure if his, yes his, crime is of a certain magnitude,
he will be remembered for the way it was publicized with his face on every
newscast and every front page? A First Amendment question....dare we consider
it? There are a lot of issues here, none of them
trivial. </SPAN></DIV></DIV>

reacting to something. I take a blanket and a flashlight with me on
winter trips in the car, I carry jumper cables in the trunk, I have smoke
alarms and a fire extinguisher in my house, I bring a space blanket, some
matches, and a folding knife with me when I go hiking, and I keep a gun at
home in case I need to protect myself.<BR><BR>Banning all guns because someone
used one in a horrifying way appears to me to be more of a fear-driven
act. There is definitely room for improvement in who we sell guns to and
how well we learn how to use them but that's a discussion that should happen
after the knee-jerk reactions have passed.<BR><BR>Paul</SPAN></DIV>
