Virginia Tech Massacre

President Bush was horrified when he learned of the massacre at Virginia Tech today. Senator Reid was mortified. Senator McConnell called for a moment of silence. Why horrified? It implies that the shootings are a rarity! President Bush, a resolve to champion meaningful gun control would provide more solace to the nation! Why so sad Senator Reid - you have had ample opportunity to champion gun control. A moment of silence in the Senate? It seems like we have had an eternity of silence in the halls of Congress when it comes to effective gun control. It will be interesting to see what the NRA spins on this latest high profile example of gun violence . Of course it will be that guns do not kill - bad people do. Remember, good people with guns can become bad people with guns more often than we care to admit.
