Really enough is enough. When will the shootings stop. As it is a time for action. Not just all talk in gun control.
Anyone who is anti-gun control is partly responsible for every gun death. We all live in a less safe country because you can't get a hard on without shooting something.

Pretty sad to see the media spin this as a workplace dispute. Wake up folks
What type of society have we become that would spawn such people that do these types of things?

I am no fan of gun control both from a philosophical and practical aspect. With that said, however, something has to be done. Freedom v. security is a constant challenge.
These attacks are consistent in going after the weak and undefended. People in church, children at school, and now the mentally challenged. The reason we band together as a society is - in part - to protect the defenseless among us from those who would otherwise harm them.
On the other hand, if we strip away the right to protect ourselves and, instead, rely on government to defend us, (1) we will need to increase the police presence significantly - try getting Baltimore City PD to respond to a burglary; (2) everyone will need to get used to a much more intrusive government and be ready to surrender significant personal freedoms unrelated to the right to own a gun. Just as with freedom, security comes with a price.
The tragedies need to end. While I generally am not in agreement with him on issues, I agree with Obama's statement that these types of shootings cannot become "something that just happens in the ordinary course of events."

Hey Joe, after you figure out how to control the guns from going to crazy people then can you work on this issue: is there a way for some Muslims to stop hating us and committing violent acts against our society?
The actual execution of any plan and a....real hope for success is....an issue.
I don't know what the answer is but something has to be done.
As a society we are completely out of control when it comes to gun violence.

its intriguing to hear the media spin both mass shootings.
The California one...NBC and CNN have brought in experts and done pieces about gun control in less than 24 hours
The Colorado one...both networks only talked about planned parenthood. Very little on gun control or the mentally ill. Come to find out this guy was very much a nut and intense loner
The media will push their agenda and somehow give opinion as facts
folks we need to wake up...
