Amen Robert. I've already said several. Terrible, terrible tragedy...
I don't even have kids and this is tearing me up. They were just babies, for God's sake. WTF?
I'll be praying for the kids and their families.
I'm also gonna be praying that guns are banned and revoked in the US so this kind of thing can be prevented...
Sadly, that's the kneejerk reaction that should not happen but will be brought up and encouraged now more than ever. We don't talk about doing anything with people with mental or emotional illness, or family dynamics that push people over an edge. People are allowed to be people regardless of the potential consequences of an action and yet we are bound by law to let them be free until they commit such an act as this. But a mental illness almost always is at the root of these tragedies.
So many people are killed by cops, but we never talk about taking their guns away.
Emotions run high at times like this and we should all step back and take a deep breath before making big decisions like that. We should heal, not do more harm.
First off i would like to say that this is a tragedy and I am praying for and will continue to pray for the family. Secondly, no offense but is this really the thread to debate this stuff. I personally feel we should just leave it at condolences, and save the politics for one of the other 5 political threads we got on this section of the board.
I too pray for the loss of the families.

I'm not here to debate gun rights. That's just tacky, given this event has just happened. You guys can keep on defending your killing instruments, just don't cry if this happens to a someone you love some day. God help you, because I can't.
