Keith Olbermann

It was with shock and sadness that the word of Keith Olberman's leaving his show,on MSNBC' was felt by his many fans. His program brought out issues to our attention that the mainstream media ignored and did it in a way that was not only informative but with humor....to make them more palatable..... he treated his guests with respect and actually listened to them.....something that few other commentators do..I wish him well and hope that his absence from TV will be short-lived.

Availibility of Deadly Weapons Deranged

Putting aside for the moment the horrific cause of Saturday's tragic events in Arizona, one basic premise STILL exists....the availability of deadly weapons to those who are truly deranged..Current gun laws are too lax and are too often circumvented..A simple criminal background check is obviously not enough, some sort of psychological test should be included (like in the armed forces) before any gun permit/sale is issued..When one considers the fact that we are the most heavily, privately armed nation in the world it should come as no surprise when something like the Arizona massacre occurs. . .

Guns in Bars

Oh,Goody! Now there are some who want to not only allow guns in bars and college campuses but to allow them in Congress! Just what we need.....solve the gun problems with more guns! Can you imagine the outcome of the often nasty and heated arguments if those members were to be armed?!

Remedy is the Vote, not Bloodshed

I'm no Constitutional scholar but isn't it an act of sedition to advocate the use of arms to overthrow a tyrannical government if some think that is our own? I always thought that the 2nd.Amendment meant that we had the right to form a militia against a foreign, invading body. Our nation/government is formed by all of the people and if there is dissension the remedy is the vote. Not bloodshed.
