"i don't want to get into the whole pro/anti gun thing, but does anyone ever ask why our society produces people who are so detached from humanity and obsessed with violence?"
I think what makes us human is that we can get detached from society. But if someone hands that person a gun, he suddenly has that option to do what he thinks will make him feel good...well I wouldnt want to be around that dude when he does snap.
And anyone that says "just cause one wacko messed up, I should still have my right to blow someones head off"... what if it was a family member of yours that got killed?
I know death is part of life... but Im trying to dream of living in a utopia here. Isnt that what we are all working for?

What that has to do with the AG, I have no clue.

All i can do is laugh incredulously at that video. you can tell that kid thought that was cool. I mean... the pictures.....wow. He tried REALLY hard to look like he came straight out of a comic book or movie. "Loner"? no shit...
The ONLY chilling thing about that video for me personally was that I probably met a dozen people just like him in high school.

oh Dukie... you still need mommy and daddy to wipe your ass too?
who gives a shit about how much money they spend to send you there...
... you telling me that you're 'not' an adult now?
This is the first time I've heard someone play up the fact that they're a 'kid' in college and they need they're mommy and daddy.
Of COURSE Universities have security in place... so do large corporate campuses...
... but do you really think ANY of them are equipped to handle a 'lone mad gunman'?
You're demanding perfection... you won't get it.

noone is really defending the gun thing here, it is just that the cat is out of the bag, there are like a billion guns in the hands of citizens right now, what is the solution?
- TheBlueOne0
OK, so I present a historical example where the US government sent in an armed militia to put down citizens rights for economic justice, and the citizens responded with armed force and you go off on some marxist capitalist trip..sorry bro...and I come from deep Union roots and fighting for a decent minimum wage and working conditions - which you're apparently taking for granted, as everyone today has bought the whole "free market" crappola that the modern media dishes out - if you want to call that "illegal" whatever...I call it fighting for your rights and using the first amendment to back up your namesake first there.
Sorry man..I am pro-freedom of speech, I am pro-abortion, I am pro net nuetrality, I hate censorship of any kind, but I want the right to have a gun.

i really wonder. what if guns were less accessible? it would still occur, like here in NL, but maybe less?
sad though. :'(
- Meeklo0
But I see your point, and if you read my previous comments we both agree.
yes, lack of guns won't mean violence will dissapear, lets be realistic. I dont think anyone thinks that way.
Less guns and less ammo means less people being accesible to them andfor that less likely to use a gun, if they want to steal they will now find something else, a knife yes, but not a gun. do you see my point now?

it pays to live close to the back-bacon border ;)

tk
1a. vehicular manslaughter
1b. drunk driving2. second hand smoke
which of those things can i control again as a pedestrian?
try to see the whole picture, not just the part that works for your argument.
i think gun violence sucks too, but reading what a bunch of overprivileged, overpaid, underinformed suburbanites have to write about it from their office is not on my agenda

Obviously Koreans are the problem here.
Nothing at all to do with guns.

(Apr 18 07, 00:33)koreans are the problem???!!
you are wrong.
asians are the problem, let me rephrase that..people with black straight hair that like rice, no matter their race, are propense to do something like this.
just following your thinking process.. makes no sense at all but hey, I have to say something
