Teenage boy in Albuquerque kills 2 adults and 3 children.

"Investigators are also trying to determine who owns a number of guns that were found at the home, including a semi-automatic military-style rifle, the Associated Press news agency reports.

The shooting came hours after pro-gun activists staged rallies across the United States to demonstrate against stricter gun control laws."

The latest is 3 wounded, including 1 gunman - RC

Another gunman fled and hasn't been found, and another person had a heart attack.

Perry's "thoughts and prayers" solution to gun violence - was announced last week.

Yeah, like that'll work. This one hit a little too close to home for me. My neighbor's daughter goes to that community college. I was out doing errands when I heard about this incident. Stopped by WalMart looking for a heating pad and while cruising the aisles, I saw and older guy who had his cart filled just about half full with boxes and boxes of various kinds of bullets. I checked out the sporting goods department and found their ammo case was just about 95% empty, except for a tiny supply of buckshot. Seems that public pressure to cease guns and ammo sales has that location switching from an "on-again" to "off-again" policy that currently has suspended ordering any new ammo shipments for the time being.

That is sad - I also read this - - sm

Teen charged with pulling knife on a young boy.

2 people died in a fire set off by the owners.

Inmate assaults police officer.

Just very said stories of different crimes that happen all the time. Maybe all knives, matches, and other objects people comit violent crimes should be confiscated. But then again you'd have to butter your bread with a spoon.

I just don't see the utility in this argument - sm

I sure wish the Aurora guy was armed with a knife.
