I completely agree with you. As the daughter of a right-winged Conservative and with a Tea Party brother, I'm laughed at as the Horrible Liberal of the family. But then when I am with the majority of my friends, I'm considered the Horrible Conservative. Guns are not the problem so banning them is not the answer. I grew up with a gun cabinet filled to the brim but have no desire in my adult life to have one.

We cannot blame these atrocities on any one thing. It is a multitude of things and until The Powers That Be can sit down and discuss these issues subjectively and honestly, no answers will be found. :(
