Wow! Imagine how much better it will be when even law enforcement stops carrying weapons! [/sarcasm]

Half tempted to post that article on the Brady bunch face book page, but, they would just counter and say if guns were legal there would have been more deaths. I already posted on there about how people are the problem and not the guns and that if you take away the guns, they will just find another way to hurt each other and not one response.
