Look a Chicago, 500 murders a year with guns with the strictist gun laws in America. The gun is not evil, but the person murdering "IS".

History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so. Indeed I would go so far as to say that the underdog is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let’s not have any native militia or police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order.” – Adolf Hitler, I say we do not go the road of Hitler. “The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms.

Working THROUGH a problem, not fighting, but resolution.  If it was a physical bully, you were not punished for defending yourself.  Adults intervened if there was a big problem.  Now we have a nation of 'bully-proofing' everything, including kids' computers.  Take them away, if it's a problem, unplug, forbid, take them away for Heaven's sake! Where are people's backbones?? Put some muscle back into the school and forbid parents from filing suit against schools for discipline when kids get into trouble.  Let kids resolve their problems with some help.. and stop this "I've been bullied so I can kill whoever", or I'm bullied poor me.  Give the child the ability and the COURAGE to stand their ground and be proud of who they are!  It won't start when they are in high school!  Don't start the wussification at 3 and expect them to change at 13!! It won't happen.  I'm a female, and both my parents wanted me to be a strong, independent woman who would NEVER allow herself to be a victim.  I was taught to shoot, hunt, fish, camp, and survive. I was also given ballet and tap lessons and taken to church from the time I was born! I raised my sons and daughter by the same rules, and proud to say my grandchildren are being raised that way too!  NO ONE should be raised a VICTIM, but we're allowing it to happen in our Federally controlled schools!!
