I want to start this thread by reiterating the obvious that the tragedy in Newtown was gut wrenching and a dark hour for our nation. I cannot imagine the pain the families affected by this shooting are feeling...

With that being said, if someone wants to talk to me about apples I am more than obliged to talk to them about apples. Additionally, if the conversation becomes boring and shifts to oranges I will graciously speak at length about oranges. However, I am not one to banter back and forth with someone when apples and oranges are debated without recognizing these are two very unique fruits.
The liberal left continues to use these people as pawns when discussing "common sense"/"sensible" gun legislation. At the end of the day universal background checks would not have saved this community. An armed school employee may have. A better assessment of the mental health of the shooter may have. The mother making certain the guns were inaccessible to her deranged son may have.
The beginning of this debate was filled with proposals for all out bans of AR's and high capacity magazines KNOWING that it would not pass. The liberals have from the beginnig been honing in on a compromise designed to be a "foot in the door" so to speak.
This, of course, is all propoganda designed to tug at the heart strings of Americans. I feel their pain in spirit, but I also have every intention of protecting my family from anyone that may harm them so I don't have to feel their pain in reality.
