"A man found in a pool of blood at a home improvement store in West
Covina after he purposefully attempted to cut his arms with handsaws
remained in critical condition Thursday morning, authorities said."

We need to demand that Home Depot and other stores lock up their saws and
conduct mandatory background checks on anyone wishing to handle or purchase
one... if it saves just one life it is worth it. Andrew Cuomo and Chuck
Schumer can help them spend millions to operationalize the process and
procedures. Write your Congressional representatives and Senators now! Who
knows how to set up a MoveOn.org petition? ;~)
