Re: What would you do about Virginia Tech?

Let's say hypothetically that school shootings could be 100% eliminated by banning all guns (I don't for a second think this, but I'm just granting it for the sake of argument).
I would STILL be against it.
Just because some people abuse their rights does not mean everyone should hvae to sacrifice that right.
This might sound crass, but I'd rather live in a society with gun ownership rights and a school shooting incident every year than in a society without gun ownership and no school shootings.

As a gun owner and an advocate of carrying weapons for protection, if you could demonstratively prove that banning all weapons would stop violent crime, I would be 100% in favor.
