It's sick, but political opportunists are now taking advantage of recent school shootings to push their legislative agenda.
Guns are to blame, they say.
I grew up in Arkansas. A junior high school teacher took me hunting. A high school teacher reloaded pistol ammunition for me. I was taught in 9th grade science class which two household chemicals should not be stored together, because if spilled and mixed, formed a deadly gas. But I never considered taking them to a crowded department store or theater and mixing them.
