Gosh, what a poor way to craft policy.

Let's just *do something*, *now*, for the children....

We can sort out if it actually works, if we can afford it, if it causes more problems than it is worth, or if it impedes the freedoms of others later! Well, unless American Idol comes on, then we'll all just go watch that!

I'll ask you, Rob, what have you, personally, done about this event? I have attended two active shooting seminars at a regional law enforcement training facility, and worked with our local law enforcement/emergency services/schools to do training/planning drills on-site here, joined the local fire department and am undergoing my firefighter/emt training.
