Oh, I am not finished discussing these murders.

Not by a long shot. The Conservative Party in the USA, along with the NRA think they have a strategy to shut down any other point of view.

This IS the statement that appears on the NRA webstite:

The National Rifle Association joins the entire country in expressing our deepest condolences to the families of Virginia Tech University and everyone else affected by this horrible tragedy.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families.

We will not have further comment until all the facts are known.

They might very well join the country in moarning this tragedy, but, that doesn't preclude them from taking a stand to promote gun regulation. There are currently court cases that indicate gun manufacturers have a right to perform a vital service to this country but not to escalate the harm of average citizens in that process.

Also what came across the radar today is also the issue of partial birth abortion. Women have a right to their bodies and their health. They have a right to have a life they have set for themselves without the ideology of government. Government does not belong in the moral business. I want to explore the issue of abortion from the standpoint that Judge Gingsburgh understands it and that is from the safety of women within our society.

By the way, this decision about this law does not stop Partial Birth Abortions. They are still legal when a woman's life is in danger. Everyone needs to keep that perspective as any 'social' tilt that would lend itself to misunderstanding in the country is dangerous. I am sure everyone respects a woman's health at least that much and I would hate for any political commentator finding themselves facing a lawsuit for the peril they caused.

These issues deserve more than a simply 'banged out' emotional reply. So, therefore, later.
