We need to have laws to prosecute the parents of children that gain access to guns.   Both of the Kinkels should have been arrested and thrown in jail when Kip first brought that pistol to school.  All of their guns should have been immediately confiscated by the police at that point in time.   That would have then saved their lives, and also prevented the shooting at the school too.

Oregon's gun laws are woefully inadequate.   There are way too many guns in our state.   Many of them are in the hands of people who should not have them.   Their guns need to be confiscated and destroyed.  Making Oregon's gun laws tougher should be the #1 priority of the Oregon State Legislature next year.

We need to teach our children that guns are evil.
