Besides this public statement of my support, I've also sent him such an email. I'll be interested to watch the information that comes out about this nutbag shooter. You know, the assault shotgun, the 4 zillion rounds of ammo, the camo jockey shorts, the 40 page manifesto... unless he was just some lovesick schlub whose story won't further the gun control movement, in which case this will all die out before Sunday.

The only thing they do is by denying CCW on school campuses is to create a free fire zone. This has been one point of the Idaho CCW law I just can’t understand. If faculty members and in higher education environments students were given the right of CCW an incident like the last couple of mass casualty crimes we have seen at our nation’s college campuses have the potential of being stopped by a legally armed and trained member of the faculty or a fellow student. The shear arrogance and stupidity of School Administrator’s and Government Officials continue to leave our schools wide open to a Beslan style of attack by terrorists or just plain crazies wanting to make a name for themselves going out in blaze of demented glory. The reason the wife and I have CCW is because we can’t carry a cop. As I have heard and read many times when seconds count the police are only minutes away. I agree 100%.
