"It's time for common sense" [Letter, Village News, 12/20/2012]

Mr. Monday, you evidently have very little knowledge of firearms and I question your common sense.

You say you’re a gun owner, but you don’t sound like a true gun owner. You must be an anti-gun liberal.

First off, the worst school massacre in U.S. history didn’t even happen with a gun. In 1927, Andrew Kehoe blew up a school with explosives; 45 dead, 38 were children. Unfortunately these bad events have been happening since the beginning of time. The first school shooting happened July 26, 1764.

Most gun owners, like me, believe that the last school shooting, at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut, could have been avoided or less carnage, if the anti-gunners made it easy for Adam Lanza and alike to do their acts. Notice these schools are all gun-free zones and no responsible school employees are allowed to carry a gun.

Because of these gun-free areas, I believe the best way to stop these school shootings possibly is with armed guards in the schools. Schools and children need to be protected.

Remember Mr. Monday, Adolph Hitler also supported gun registration.

Supporting more anti-gun laws do nothing to make us safer, it only takes away our rights and freedoms.
