If [the shooting of Gabby Giffords in] Tucson tells us anything at all, it tells us this: Government has failed.

Folks, Brian Williams isn't the exception. He's exactly what they've taught us to expect from them all. It's not journalism any more - it's entertainment, it's celebrity, it's agendas and it's money. All too often, a lie is now an acceptable way of communicating. To the media, a lie has as much value as the truth.

There exists in this country, sadly, a callous, corrupt and corrupting shadow industry that sells and stows violence against its own people. Through vicious, violent video games...

If it's crazy to call for putting police and armed security in our school to protect our children, then call me crazy.

Freedom is never an achieved state; like electricity, we've got to keep generating it or the lights go out.

I think every school needs a protection plan with a either police officer or certified armed security.

I think the president's comfortable with a certain level of violence.
