A few thoughts for those who are against gun control. “Guns don’t kill people, people do.” Well, an assault rifle is a very efficient weapon. I’ve never heard of a mass strangulation.

If the rights of gun-owners are considered inalienable, don’t children have the right to an education without being murdered? And perhaps some of those in Congress who are against gun control should be among the first to enter a classroom after a massacre.

One doesn’t have to think very hard to imagine the devastating result that an assault rifle has on the body of a young child.
