On the two-month anniversary of the tragic shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown that claimed the lives of 26 people, thousands gathered on the steps of the state Capitol in Hartford Thursday to advocate for changes to Connecticut’s gun laws.
The event, known as the March for Change, was organized by CT Against Gun Violence and included remarks by politicians, musicians, faith leaders and gun violence survivors and family members of others whose lives were cut short by gun violence, including several from the Sandy Hook shootings.
People came from all over Connecticut to be heard and express their views on the controversial subject of gun control, but Patch wanted to know the answer to one simple question:
What brought you here today?

Look at the round that is ejected from the shotgun. That's a shotgun shell, not a .223. A 12 gauge shotgun shell is usually between 2.5 and 3.5 inches long and has a diameter of almost 3/4ths (.729) of an inch. A .223 has an overall length of 2.26 and a base diameter of .378. You cannot confuse the two. That's the shotgun in the trunk.

Please tell me Is the goal to stop violence or is it how do we disarm the population? Seems to me the focus is on trashing the 2nd Amendment, not preventing violence. Strange the NRA spokesman said “the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun.” He was vilified and insulted by the anti gun media and most notably Sen. Murphy. Yet the procedures being put in place in many school districts are: lock down and wait for a good guy with a gun. All good people will obey the law even if that means harsh and restrictive gun laws. But please tell me how many criminals will register a fire arm or worry about getting a permit? NONE!
