I am 66 years old and don't know personally of even one circumstance of that, before you step on me, I do not advocate taking guns away from law abiding citizens, it is a right we have and just like cars (which I suspect kill more people than guns) the good outweighs the bad, as far as saying somebody would have killed 28 people today with a lead pipe is just plain nonsense... Why do we always seem to feel a need to justify gun ownership... Tragedys like today happen because guns get in the wrong hands, unfortunately it is a side effect of our right to keep firearms.
