    The mother of the killer had possession of these guns so SHE COULD DEFEND HERSELF. How about martial arts? She thought they were 'GOOD GUNS'. One revolver could not have taken out 20 children in that amount of time. What police Officer carries around a Bushmaster .223???

    What paranoid lunatic thinks schools should become armed camps! Schools should be gun-free & no private citizen needs high capacity magazines or assault weapons.

    The NRA is beholden ONLY to gun manufacturers. Please stop the madness - ban asault weapons and high capacity magazines, and close the gun show loophole. Such dangerous weapons do not belong in our streets.

    Armed guards and teachers with guns in schools is not the answer!! Handguns and assault rifles should only be allowed for the military and police.

    Senators and Congressional Leaders should stand up to the NRA and say, "I ask the NRA to give me an F rating and even to give money to whoever runs against me in the next election because I gladly disassociate myself from them."

    I am listening to the NRA press conference. Please someone start a new organization for responsible GUN OWNERS. They are not responsible. Please Ban semi automatic guns!

    Such weapons allow civilians to kill civilians and government officials all too efficiently and horrifically. They therefore should be available only to the police and military, not civilians. Will we have to witness another horrible mass murder before these lethal weapons are banned? How many more civilians, including children, must die before we ban these murderous guns?

    Assault Weapons have no place in this country. These weapons are for Police and the Military. No other person should ever have access to these Mass Killing Machines. We need them completely illegal and enforced strictly. Too many lives have been lost because of these High Capacity Weapons. The Gun Lobby, NRA, an Pro Gun people should have nothing to say about these Weapons because the only use of this weapon is for mass killings.

    Military weapons are for the military. That with a program to get the guns off the streets will be baby steps towards safer communities.

    Ban the weapons, ban the ammunition and track the people who own these as you would terrorists. These are not sporting weapons and they are not home defense weapons. No one needs to own an assault weapon unless they plan to go on a killing spree.

    I was so heartbroken after this event, understanding how innocent these children are as the father of a 4 year old girl. We need to ban these dangerous tools as part of a comprehensive solution that addresses our culture of violence and lack of compassion for those crying out for help.

    While its nearly impossible to stop gun violence on individual or criminal levels, it IS possible to prevent mass murders by banning assault weapons and instituting strict process for gun licensing and ownership.
