I don't know if anyone else lives in my state (Connecticut) or lives close enough to know how a lot of people are here, but even before Newtown we had the strictest gun laws in the country. And after this happened, the pro-gun control argument became super emotionally charged. I know that guns (pictures, symbols, even mentionings) were even banned from a lot of schools, and most conservatives couldn't start a conversation about their favorite rifle without giving a speech to make sure everyone listening wouldn't be offended.
So yeah, biggest troll of our time.

I just think guns are stupid the whole concept of thinking they are ok to have incase there is another gun man nearby just feels like it's encouraging shoot outs and acts of people being vigilantes. I really don't think that the people who do carry them would be "in the right place at the right time". On the other hand, banning fire arms won't stop people from illegally obtaining them. So if we look at the real problem it's not really guns. It's either acts of terrorism by gangs and groups or mentally unstable people. How could we lower the instances of these people trying to murder others?
