Hmm, maybe the Obama administration should look at pushing for more built-in gun safety features too...

Maybe they weren't armed heavily enough.

The guns should have guns attached so that they can shoot the gun that's shooting.

Your idea doesn't involve enough guns.

Well we could view it as a bi-partisan compromise.

The NRA said that the only thing stopping a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.  Well, I would guess there are a lot of good guys with guns at gun shows.

Can't be true.  The right has insisted that guns are harmless, and only people can hurt other people.
