Government failed us once again at NIU

After the Northern Illinois University incident, I've noticed the usual rhetoric from the anti-gun zealots demanding even more gun laws.

I do not think that laws are the problem.

There is a federal law in effect that stipulates a person must wait three days after completing legal paperwork before purchasing and possessing hand guns.

I've read that the perpetrator was discharged from the military due to psychological problems. The government should have stopped this purchase.

It is astounding that this was again allowed to happen.

We do not need to add to the overwhelming number of gun laws now in effect.

We need more effective people in government!
