Bottom line, guns aren't the whole issue. However, it's harder to protect yourself from guns. Which is why you have the right to have a gun. But it's just a vicious circle.
sputnik is right about the psychological issues, but I much prefer living in a place where there are less guns.

Well, you are ignoring that the person who sold it to the kid had to got the gun somehow? keep moving up the ladder till you find the responsible.
If you find a mountain in front of you, do you inmediatly assume the planet ends behind it just because you can see it?
seriously I dont get it..
You never asked a grown up to buy you porn, beer or cigarretes as a kid? all it takes is to ask to 5 people,
one will say ok, but be carefull! and will handle you a nice pack of camel lights with no filters.

Did anyone see the video shot by the student (played on CNN)?
You could hear so many gun shots. Probably the most I've ever heard, to be honest.
Really scary.

Less ammo = more pistol whipping

(Apr 17 07, 13:05)valid point. and I agree
you will have to be creative, wrap your pistol in a bandana and you can know someone teeth off if you like, but you won't be able to shoot.

IRNlun6, if you were in a situation where someone is pointing a knife at you, and a second situation where someone is pointing a gun at you, which situation would be easier to get out of?

The USA will not be banning guns in your lifetime.
Hypothetically speaking, you could throw this around forever because it is never going to be.

from CNN:
"Deadliest campus shooting in U.S. history"

I am so far removed from guns.
Here's Jersey's news for the day http://www.channelonline.tv/Even now i do a double take when I see a policeman with a firearm because they're so alien to me.
That said however, there is apparently a large arsenal of private weaponry over here and a few gun nuts. It wouldn't surprise me for St Helier to have it's own Hungerford one day.

At the very least, people should be asked specific questions before they purchase a gun.
Not that this guy wouldn't have hurt other people anyway, but it's a reasonable thought.
I mean, here, you are asked about what medication you're taking, depression, etc, etc. before you are allowed to have anything.

Could you imagine how many Branch Davidian Waco Texas type compounds would pop up all over the country if they banned guns?
Charlton Heston would have to be euthanized.
Sad about Vtech though, not trying to diminish it.

people really need to stop comparing every other tragedy to the nazis...
jeezus.

Yes, nothing can help to predict this sort of thing, obviously.
I'm just laughing at those people who say that it's the media's fault. Because it's always a combination of various things, and then probably one event to trigger the outlandish behaviour.

I am here in Northern VA where MANY of the family have kids that go to Virginia Tech and where many graduates from VT work & live.
So so very sad.

the 2nd amendment was turned into a farce years ago...
... and now needs to be backspaced out of the Bill of Rights.
I hate guns.

... what is COMMON SENSE?
It's common sense that after one shooting of two people that appears isolated... that you 'lock down' 100+ other buildings?
Yes... you go get right on that... use your perfected 'common sense' as you say... and go direct that shit. I'd love to see how 'perfect' your delivery of 'safety' is.
.... lolz @ 'eat me'...
... easy tough guy!!

well, not so sure cnn would care. On their home page, right next to their horrible headlines and images of pain, death and chaos, we have two girls dancin like idiots.
A little distracting, and maybe they should hide that stupid ad at least for a few days...
