The police are not legally required to protect you, nor are they usually capable of protecting you. I've lived in neighborhoods where the cops were afraid to go. Remember that hurricane New Orleans? One third of the cops deserted, and the average person was fucked. The cops will not protect you. The government will not protect you. You are on your own.
By the way, why don't you take a wild guess as to what group of people was the first in America to be forbidden from owning guns. Do you really think that was about public safety?

I agree totally. And I don't even care if you were meaning to be sarcastic, cuz like it or not, what you said is true.
I'm not sure that potentially drunk (on their off hours) college students with guns is a good idea, but at least maybe arm the faculty. They would at least have had a chance then. The shooter obviously didn't care that guns were banned on the University grounds.
I do strongly support the 2nd Ammendment. Laws only take the guns out of the hands of law abiding citizens. Criminals don't give a shit about the laws. Granted, nothing prevented him from buying the guns, but surely the signs on the doors stating that guns are banned on the University grounds should have stopped him (NOT!). Spare me!
OH! Here's an idea... How about putting locks on the inside of classroom doors! Then people wouldn't have to block the doors with their bodies. Duh. :confused: :mad:
