Of course I'm hurt. I have a soon to be 7 year old nephew and a 3 year old niece, another 1 year old nephew, and a third nephew on the way. I don't want to have to lose them.
When is it gonna be enough?

I went to a school where almost every truck had a rifle or two in the back window on a gun rack (especially during deer season) and almost every guy wore a knife on his hip and no one got shot or knifed.......
Then teach them right. Their parents only responsibility is to ensure the grow up. Raise them to be warriors. Life is dangerous.
I have no solutions. Only tradeoffs.
Now, this is a different question though.
Your OP seemed to presume there were no remedies outside gun control measures. I'd be happy to discuss these things.

Why should kids have to grow up with so many weapons around them anyway? Can we not teach them to be kind and merciful rather than just telling them to shoot anyone who comes into their house uninvited? Makes us no different than threatened animals.
You may teach your children to be kind, but who is teaching the other guy?
This is the 22nd school shooting in just this year. Don't you think SOMETHING needs to be done? ANYTHING?
Yes. Remove the ones we already know will murder, and stand ready to kill the bad guy who comes to murder.
Sure.....lock the doors, everyone through metal detectors and arm/train the teachers and profile the students....<--Israel did this = no school shootings
What about parents who already own firearms? Apparently this guy's father didn't see the need to keep his weapons safely locked up.
My kids are fine with firearms. You can stay out of my business on that too.
This is an interesting starting point.
Let's filter it down a bit- how do we raise boys? Boys are committing mass shootings, not girls. Educating and raising a boy is far different than a raising a girl.
