BeardownAZ Report post Posted December 17, 2012 First let me say this whole things just makes me physically sick to my stomach. I'll keep praying for these poor people. We might not lose guns out right, but high cap mags, AR, AKs are definetly on the chopping block. Problem is, we all know guns arent the only issue if the issue at all. Keeping places "Gun free zones" with no serious armed security to keep the creeps out as well just makes them easier for mass murder. Thus why they choose schools and shopping malls, etc. I'm to the point of not going into establishments that have No weapons signs on them. If they wont provide protection, I dont believe they should have the right to tell me I dont have the right to protect me and my family. Nobody can or will answer the question of "If the law abiding citizens turn over there arms, what about the criminal element that still has them and always will?"

GotBowAz Report post Posted December 18, 2012 I am also just sickened by this, and what really crawls under my skin is the thought that if just one teacher had a CC permit on the grounds this might have ended much differently. IMO all teachers ought to have a CC and carry on the school grounds. Then maybe nut jobs out there wouldn’t target innocent children. If you watched the “VOICE” this week all of the performers and the coaches that were on the show together sang a song for those children while holding a card with a child’s name on it that is now deceased from this tragedy. For me, it hit home, PROTECT OUR CHILDREN! My heart and prayers to the family’s of all involved. GBA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biglakejake Report post Posted December 18, 2012 tough time all around. an interview with Jeff at AJ Imports in the junction: Gun owners aren't just afraid of losing their right to buy certain guns. Jeff Serdy, owner of AJI Sporting Goods in Apache Junction, Ariz., said his buyers were buying ammunition. "I am selling a ton of ammunition," Serdy said. "My people figure it is easier for the president to ban ammunition sales than to get a gun bill through Congress." Other countries have tried limiting the sale of ammunition as an easier alternative to banning guns. Mexico for example, bans any "military cartridge." In the U.S., the AR-15 and M-16 ammunition use the same bullet, the .223 and NATO 5.56 mm round. Serdy said he was out of the cheaper $700 to $800 versions of the AR-15 but still had some priced at $1100 and up.
