We, the people fully believe that the People under the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights have a legal and Constitutional Right to KEEP and BEAR Arms. We, the people also fully believe that if the staff were armed at the Newton, Connecticut location, lives may have been saved. The criminal did not respect laws and broke several in order to commit his violent crime against humanity.
We, the people duly support the arming of staff and other administrators. Had the staff had access of a means to defend and protect themselves and others, this crime would not have had the ending as it did.
We, the people do request full support of our Second Amendment Rights as well as defensive training and the elimination of Gun Free Zones, that invite this time of crime to occur.
We, the people do NOT support restrictions be applied to the good people of this country, but rather that the lessons learned from these crimes, be applied for our future protection and of the innocent. Some of these lessons are that Political Correctness leads to the fear of questioning individuals and their actions prior to crimes being committed, IE Fort Hood, Texas.
We, the people know that if firearms aren't convenient, other means will be used, such as Timothy McVeigh's and his actions.
We, the people signed this petition for the purpose of our REPRESENTATIVES to think their actions out thoroughly, prior to responding with more laws that will only punish the decent Americans and do nothing to discourage the criminal from their intended actions.

I really never expected this level of traction when I started typing this out in a fit of frustration late at night. It feels like people are finally waking up to the reality that we need to actually secure our spaces instead of just taking away rights from the people who follow the law anyway.

Stop the drugging of our youth and the extremely violent video games that are made for young people. If someone kills people while driving drunk we do not blame the car. Don't blame guns. They save lives and freedom.
Don't spoil things for millions of safe gun owners because of a few bad apples. Uphold the constitution.
KEEP OUR 2ND AMENDMENT IN TACT, WE HAVE A RIGHT SINCE OUR FORE FATHERS TO BEAR ARMS-IT IS IMPERATIVE TO CONTINUE AS SUCH-AMERICA NEEDS IT!
LEAVE OUR GUNS ALONE!! The constitution is clear and the government needs to quit trying to take away our rights because of criminals.
Gun free zones are just sitting ducks for these crazy people. Time to let law abiding citizens protect themselves and their families.
SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED
Guns don't kill people, people do!

The founders wrote our Second Amendment and they did a great thing by writing it. It's not to be infringed upon. It has protected us for over 200 years.
