Following a deadly school shooting in Newtown last month, the governor has established a commission to look at limiting and possibly preventing another tragedy from ever happening again.
"It would be stupid for us not to have this conversation," said Gov. Dannel Malloy in from the State Capitol in Hartford Thursday afternoon.
Malloy announced that he is setting up a Sandy Hook Advisory Commission, which will be led by Hamden Mayor Scott Jackson.
"This issue touches me, I have a son whose in the first grade," said Jackson. "Right now, it's the most important thing for me to do."
The 15-member commission will review school safety, gun control laws and regulations and mental health issues.
"We will work together to make the state model one for the rest of the nation," Malloy said. "We can't work on this issue by ourselves here in Connecticut. Still, far too easy to buy guns and in some states and transport to our state. We need Washington to get its act together."

Malloy also noted that the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School may have not occurred if Lanza did not have access to AR-15s.
Malloy told reporters that the commission will need to look at language that describes certain weapons and the regulations governing them.
"It's clear we have to be respectful to the Constitution, but regulation needs to be supported," he said.

Typical a-hole,How about Resigning? How about Running down the Street in Hartford Naked? Thats Something
Good.
I suggest that you repeal ALL of your gun control laws. Every last stinking one of them; any legislation, regulation, executive order, ordinance, or anything else of similar nature that in any way, shape or form restricts, inhibits, or infringes the Right of the People (all of them) to keep and bear arms.
Then, I suggest that you order the State Police or the National Guard to provide at reasonable cost high quality firearms instruction to any teacher, administrator, member of the staff, or volunteer aide in any school (government or private) or to any home-school parent.
I further suggest that you strongly encourage such people to arm themselves for their own defense and for the defense of the children entrusted to them.
See, Governor? It's for the children. If it saves even one life, it's worth it.
Right?
Governor?
Ugh. Time to move; I guess.
