    Was just so sure a shooting involving young children would finally push legislators to do the right thing, little has changed as the number of shootings continue to skyrocket.
    R.I.P. to those lost at Sandy Hook.

    Vigils and church services were held Saturday in Connecticut to mark the seventh anniversary of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting and remember victims of other gun violence since the tragedy in Newtown.
    Twenty first graders and six educators were killed at the school on Dec. 14, 2012.
    During one remembrance service, Monsignor Robert Weiss, of St. Rose of Lima Church, expressed dismay about how the spate of deadly gun violence has continued in the U.S. since Sandy Hook.

    “On this day seven years ago, we all thought the world was going to change. But it seems we were deluded because the situation has gotten even worse with the violence of guns,” Weiss told a packed memorial Mass on Saturday, Hearst Connecticut Media reported. “We live in fear, we live in anxiety, and yet we live in hope because we know God walks with us.”
    According to Connecticut Against Gun Violence, which helped to organize vigils held in the state on Saturday, more than 700,000 Americans have been killed or injured in gun violence since the Sandy Hook shooting.
    The annual memorial Mass at St. Rose of Lima began with the traditional reading of the names of the Sandy Hook victims. A bell was solemnly rung after each name was recited.
    While seven years have passed, many in the small community of Newtown still struggle to cope with the magnitude of the tragedy.
    “Just when I thought I was moving past the difficult part of this experience, it comes back. And I know it is like that for a lot of us in Newtown,” Rabbi Shaul Praver said during an interfaith service at Newtown Congregational Church.
    Weiss was overcome by tears at the end of his homily.
    “I am asked all the time how we are doing - how our families are doing - and my answer is, `I don't know,' because every day brings something new,” Weiss said. “All we are given is what we have here this morning.”
    Gov. Ned Lamont ordered all state and U.S. flags in Connecticut to be flown at half-staff from sunrise to sunset on Saturday in remembrance of the Newtown victims.
    “The tragedy that occurred that day is one of the worst in our history,” Lamont, a Democrat, said in a statement. “But in its aftermath, we witnessed an unprecedented outpouring of humanity, hope, and kindness cascading into our state from over the entire world, spreading a message of love that we must proactively protect.”

    No, the bar is much much higher than that. I don’t believe there is ANY event that would change Americans attitude towards guns so long as they think it is in their constitutional right.

    It is their constitutional right, and considering a gun cannot kill without someone pulling the trigger, it’s not the guns fault at all.
    I remember reading something about gun laws and crime rates, I don’t remember the whole thing but the areas with the strictest gun laws saw the most crimes, and the areas without saw the least. There was some stat saying one town made a mandate that at least one person per household had to be trained how to use a gun, and they needed a gun in the house, after that law was passed the rate of home invasions dropped over 80%.
    As well I also read that Venezuela took away the right to bear arms, and confiscated guns, as well they have embraced socialism. So now the govt controls every aspect of their lives, they stand in line for food, water, etc...they also kill the hydro at random. This is especially sad considering that not so many years ago they were a very rich and prosperous country, now only those in control and their families are rich.

    Edit: In before BFF.

    "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." The second amendment says nothing about gun control nor the type of arms people can keep.

    ^Yup, but the legal gun owners are committing very few gun-related crimes, in many cases they are stopping gun-related crimes.
