WTFWe've had guns longer than we've had laws ( ) why does it seem like more and more problems are happening with guns now?It's like I always say, guns don't kill people, people kill people.

It's sad when $#!^ like this happens. I agree 100% that people kill people. Yes I have a gun. Yes I have multiple guns. Yes I carry one in the car most of the time. Yes I have one close to my bed. It seems this is happening more frequent.
