I've stayed out of this thread for the longest time as I didn't have anything to say that I had not said. However, just wanted to quickly point out 2 things:
I) You may want to notice how much this thread has been derailed and just move the discussion to another one if you really want to honour those people?
II) I can't believe I agree with Nemesis on a serious issue, but I pretty much agree with a vast majority of things he wrote. I highly recommend looking into statistics and testimonies in some other countries (most of European countries) where guns are highly restricted and where's barely any violence or shootings (in fact, any incidents like that where you have a lot of loss of lives).
