If you do not want one, then you don't have to have one. But infringing on the right of others to bear arms will limit law-abiding citizens more than it will limit the bad guys.

Two days after the Newtown, CT shooting there was a shooting in San Antonio. Everyone in the restaurant and theater did not have a gun, but because someone did, a mass shooting was prevented.

This gun owner could've stopped a mass shooting, but because concealed carry was illegal, she'd taken her gun out of her purse.

I do not own a gun, but I do understand the importance of the right of people to bear arms.

Limiting that right will not save the children or anyone else from those who seek to harm or oppress. It will only empower the latter.
