"Several former teachers who survived a shooting rampage at a Stockton school have formed a group to stand up for gun control, but not all the victims from Cleveland Elementary School agree.Rob Young, now 30, was 6 years old when he was shot at school.\"I remember that day like it was yesterday,\" Young told KCRA 3. \"I looked down at my shoe, saw blood coming from my foot, and I looked at my chest, and saw blood on my shirt.\"Young was shot in his chest and foot that day in 1989, when gunman Patrick Purdy opened fire on campus, killing five children and wounding 29 others.Now, Young is a police officer. He said it\u2019s not the guns that hurt people. He is against gun control.\"What people need to understand (is that) criminals will not give up guns,\" Young said. \"In fact, they tried this in Australia, and the crime rate actually went up.\"Some former teachers from Cleveland Elementary School are on the other side of the issue. They decided to take action, and actually formed a group 24 years after the shooting tragedy.Adrienne Egeland said something needs to be done about guns.\"How (could you) hear about what we went through and not want to do something effective about it?\" former teacher Egeland asked. \"When Sandy Hook happened, I couldn't believe it happened again -- and how we let it happen.\"But, Young said, guns could protect children.\"We protect federal buildings with guns, and courts with guns, but we protect school children with signs that say 'gun-free zone,' \" Young said. \u00A0"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
