Dudoight's comment was not out of line, it was actually a perfectly normal response in a bygone era.

You chose to take offense

I chose to comment on Dudoight's 'crazy' and YOU'VE chosen to criticize ME.

You should's been here in the late 90's ... THAT was a free-for-all of fun.

Lighten up

I told you I did not “take offense” and you don’t believe me. Can’t do anything about that!

What could have stopped Adam Lanza?

A 9mm round right between the eyes.

Gun free zones are just targets in search of a mass murderer. High time to demand that real school security get top priority.

Restore the constitutional right of self defense to the schools. Either security personel, school marshalls, and/or select teachers/administrators for the training needed.

The pricipal was brave; she rushed an armed killer. If only she had been packing, many might still be alive.

If gun laws alone are the answer, then how come congress has security guards? They need to stop making our children sitting ducks.

All these proposals for more gun laws are just brain dead stupid!

‘Suggestions like this just make us look crazy.’

Not us, just me. I went to school with a girl whose mother had a lobotomy (pre-psychotropic meds). Post lobotomy her mother functioned well, cleaning house, cooking, etc. A welcome change from the terror she had previously bestowed on the household.

I think all convicted death penalty subjects should be offered the option of a lobotomy with possible ultimate release back into the community where they can be employed and self sustaining. The lobotomy will have erased all passion to kill along with any other criminal habits.

If Adam Lanza had had a lobotomy, his mother and 26 others would still be alive and she could ultimately have him placed in a half-way house training to live peacefully in a community, earning his own way.

I know its controversial to maybe inhumane...but those murdering
SOB’s are definitely inhumane and given the chance we take their lives.

If this is ‘crazy’, its only me thats crazy, not the rest of you. I own it.

Merry Christmas, Dudoight.

And guess what, when I was fifteen, my mother wanted to - and could have, back then, have me institutionalized because she found a pack of Marlboros in my drawer, and I failed algebra.

Interesting article; particularly conclusions re chicken/egg antidote of further screening.
