Wether you have anyone who is mentally ill living in the household or not, guns should be kept safely. If people haven't learned by now how to keep their guns, after all the shit that happens, they're crazy.
If you were a beautiful sound in the echos all around, I'd be your harmony.
Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Starsmine said it right. If someone wants to something this horrible they will do it with or without gun laws.
They are passing a law in Texas that lets college students carry guns with them, and that makes me feel safer. If some manic wants to shoot up the school some one has a way to stop them before too many lives are lost.
But even better than having a way to protect yourself is to have better mental health care. Reach out to these disturbed people in a more productive way, and also have a better way of finding them as well.
Will we ever be free of mindless violence like this, not likely. But we can be more active in stopping what we can.
I'd like to end noting that not all mentally ill people are like this. You don't need to be afraid of them.
and on top of that how many innocent bystanders get hit by random shots then? Training is what is needed...and probably should be mandatory...then in case of emergency break face.
Yeah he had body armor...nothing for his head though. One shot one kill style him.
People like you are the reason these shootings are so localized to the United States. You think MORE guns would help? There's really no sense arguing Gun Control with Americans, they're just so off from the rest of the world and can't see things like regular people.
No one should have the right to own a gun. It should not be easy to own a gun. There is no need for anyone other than the police or military to own anything better than a hunting rifle or shotgun. Having assault rifles for "self defense" is asinine and until America sees that this kind of stuff is going to just keep happening, so grab some popcorn and have a seat.
i'll give you the assault rifles bit. but otherwise, actually think for once. meth, crack, heroine, acid...these are all illegal. by your logic, that means they don't exist. fuck that. they're all over. i could buy a gram/rock/hit/whateverthefuckyouwant of any of those within two hours. laws stop only one group of people from doing things: law-abiding citizens. criminals, by their definition, break laws. they will still obtain guns. they well still use them. only difference, they could be damn sure the person they're about to rob/kill can't defend themselves.
