I copy it here for your perusal. If you haven't browsed all the responses, it's quite revealing of the state of the church when subscribers to Vision Forum respond this way. ----------------------------------------------- It Is Valid To Speak To Solutions Now I so appreciate your article. It saddens me to see the response of some within "Christendom" that would seek to disarm the innocent and subject women and children to the cruelties of evil men. When fathers are disarmed, how are we to defend the weak? This is not a "political" issue as some claim. It is a biblical and a constitutional issue. Yes, we may mourn. But in our mourning, it is certainly valid to offer solutions to preventing this meaningless violence. An armed, law-abiding populace is the only "freedom loving" means to prevent senseless killing.
