It should wake all of us up to problems of rage within so many of our own citizens. He claimed to have been disturbed by women and wealthy Americans. That is found all over the internet. There is a rage among many Americans to remove choices from women and redistribute the wealth of America. If his writings indicated his lack of sanity, Stephen King would have been in an assylum years ago.

Outside of putting armed guards on these campuses we should learn that an armed society takes care of murderers. Those kids were targets in a shooting gallery!

I received many emails yesterday from friends who lived in Virginia and were reeling from this disaster. I’m signed up with XM Radio and the manager of the Opera station told of the many employees at that station who lost friends and kids in that rampage. This will hit every one of us in the heart in some way. We mourn and then we act.

Gun control was the cause of this disaster.

There is a definite pattern that medical prescription drugs, i.e., Prozac, Zoloft, etc. are usually present when these rampages occur. Cho had a prescription medicine for his mental health, according to the New York Times this morning. I wonder if an autopsy of Cho would tell us just how much of this junk was in his system when he went over the edge. Although I’m no big fan of everyone being allowed to have guns, I think these prescription drugs usually play an important role. It’s my impression that the lower doses are pretty harmless–and also ineffective. But that the higher doses are true mind-benders. If the lower doses were not working for Cho, I suspect he was prescribed higher and higher doses. It would be in everyone’s interest to get to the bottom of this.

In other words you are saying that gun control prevented the victims from being armed and able to defend themselves. The thing that makes that statement ludicrous is the fact that every student on that campus who was a legal resident or citizen and did not have a felony conviction could have bought and possessed a gun just like Cho did. What gun control are you blaming? I would bet that 95% of the people on that campus could legally own a gun.

Those claiming a lack of gun control [who would also be wrong] caused this disaster would have more credibility. The reality is that gun control had absolutely nothing to do with “causing this disaster.” Whatever drove Cho to embark on his rampage of killing is the cause. More than likely that will be a combination of many things that impacted his mind during his life.

To contend that “this disaster” was caused by gun control has no merit because there was no gun control that prevented the victims from having guns.
