Well, maybe you'll be glad to know that the guy that tackled this gone mad fella.... went running out because he was carrying an personal gun..when the first shots were fired, he was going to take the guy out  with his gun...and decided last minute to tackle him instead...it was more advantageous in stopping the shooting. When he did that, others helped him land the guy down on the street an hold him. As was pointed out on "coast" last night...it's not the gun, it's the person using it that makes is deadly.

It was a senseless tragedy and my heartfelt prayers go out to all who have been touched by this incident.

As for gun possession; I don't imagine we'll see the end of it in our life times. There are too many yahoos out there who still think owning a gun is the pinnacle of there manhood.

What I do think is that a permit to own a gun should be harder to come by. Any one seeking to own a fire arm should subjected to a criminal background check and have a psych evaluation before being issued a permit. Not only this, but they should have to undergo an annual evaluation to keep the gun. All of this should be at the expense of the person seeking to own the gun.

Couldn't have said it better myself.  Thank you, Diana.
