Thoughts On The Va Tech Massacre

The media feeding frenzy has kinda calmed down a bit from Monday's horrible tragedy at Virginia Tech. I was reflecting to myself a bit of the pain that the families of all the victims must be going through right now. Our prayers are with them all.

This tragedy could have been avoided though. Just think if one or a couple of the students or teachers would have had a concealed weapon on them. Instead of 32 people dead, the carnage could have been a lot less. I was thinking to myself what the victims were thinking to themselves knowing that they were going to get shot one by one. What a horrible way to die. They were completely helpless. Calling 911 didn't and will never cut the mustard in these situations. Someone needed to pull a concealed weapon out and shoot that lunatic dead before he shot everyone else. I know this is not a very PC opinion, but what's more important...political expediency or saving your own and others lives. In fact I was doing some searching and came across this great piece by Ted Nugent. Please read it. It sums up my feelings exactly.

Pray for the families of victims everywhere, America. Study the methodology of evil. It has a profile, a system, a preferred environment where victims cannot fight back. Embrace the facts, demand upgrade and be certain that your children's school has a better plan than Virginia Tech or Columbine. Eliminate the insanity of gun-free zones, which will never, ever be gun-free zones. They will only be good guy gun-free zones, and that is a recipe for disaster written in blood on the altar of denial. I, for one, refuse to genuflect there.
