Pls go.

But how would there be less deaths by having Joe Smmoe shoot him in a dark room? Same with the whole thing of bullets piercing the next theatre. Wouldn't have happened with a knife. What about every other country that has gun control laws and it works? Yeah, there's problems, but it works.

well we don't know until we find out if he purchased the guns legally. having purchased a firearm illegally. i can safely say little frail weirdo geeks like this dude are probably too scared to go through the illegal channels to buy a gun.

i think complete banishment of guns is a little too much though. like i've said i'm good with the strict California gun laws. too many fucking whackos like this guy already have guns. i'd rather be safe than sorry.

I didn't know their were schools without police now. My district has police at all schools.

This has to do with people believing in the end of the world. I guarantee people are thinking it's going to end so they pull shit like this.

I hope the shooter got shot in the dick, what a fucking parasite.

Where I live, there's police in middle schools and high schools but none in elementary.

People don't understand the difference between the US and England with guns.

England hasn't ever been as gun happy as the US, so there's much less places to go and get guns.

Guns are deeply rooted into American culture and there's too many around for a banning to stop this. Mexico to the south also causes problems with guns.

I really can't believe that this happened to little kids, innocent children...

Because he is a coward and it is unlikely he would have done so knowing people in there were armed. Once armed police got on the scene, he merely set his gun down and surrendered, like a pussy. He didn't want to die. He wanted to go kill people who he knew were unarmed and would not fight because they were in a gun free zone.

Regardless, I'm not debating gun control in this thread any further. Now is not the time to try and promote political agendas over such a senseless and gut wrenching tragedy.

Look, I live in England. There's gun control here. Compare the amount of public shootings here to America, compare it.

Guns won't go away, no. But it works, it works fine.

I see your point, but we have nearly 6 times as many people here in the United States as you all do. With that many people in comparison it's hard really to make the comparison that you are making. We have over 300 million people here. You are going to have chaos. This is a society built on Wars, and fanatic type Nationalism. The right to bear arms is something that Americans covet only in Politics. Americans own guns because they live in fear of other Americans. People don't want to be robbed, and are paranoid of it, because anytime something "wrong" goes down our news is hear to brainwash a bunch of soccer moms in to thinking that the world is bad.

People will hear about this unfortunate event, and talk about it for weeks as if it really mattered to them. It's tragedy, and yet the news pushes it as a story. Parents out there are misinformed thinking that there are predators out there looking for their children at all costs be it the internet, or at local parks. There is so much paranoia, and hysteria that this has also pushed people in to the deliberate state of mind to protect themselves with a firearm. With that said you have to take in to consideration "gaming". Americans love to hunt, and let's be honest here. People who hunt are typically in to their guns, or rifles.

I'm certain there have been plenty of close family moments over some hunting here in the United States. Then you have the Wild West approach. Which I think is basically this "macho" thought process that men felt that they need guns to be cool, or tough. Cowboys, and Indians, or Cops, and Robbers is something that is played by millions of American boys. Guns, and rifles are a part of American culture. I'd like to keep it that way even if there a few bad apples here, and there. There are plenty of more responsible people in the world than this asshole today.

Dude, this happened because someone had a gun in a school, in what way does it suggest that there needs to be more people with guns in schools?
